Do you have your lab plans polished up? You are going to need every available minute tomorrow, so come prepared!

Speaking of the rocket problem – how’d you do? And do you recognize the picture? It’s the bottom of a Polaris A-1 submarine launched missile – photo taken at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Go figure that a vacation photo would come in handy in physics! Here’s the work that we did on the problem and a bit more info on the test that will now be on Wednesday.
