Week 14 physics

I was not present on monday or Tuesday. On Wednesday we went over the assessment and answered the question that need to be answer about the assessment. The reason for this was for use to see how he grades them and to ask questions about the ones we got wrong. After that was finished we talked about a bowling ball and what would be the velocity of the bowling ball if we rolled it down the hall. So we went and tested this idea we had to find out a way to count the second and where the ball was. The reason for this was to get the the class active in the lab and knowing whats going on.On thursday we continue the talk about changes in velocity. We went in the hallway to finish up the lab. We came up with a couple of ideas to see which one would work we chose to place a person at each second if where the ball moved. After a couple of tries we got it. Then we came in to talk about what was the velocity of the bowling ball and how it changes. We found out that it speeds up and then slows down. This makes the velocity un constant. We went back in to the classand talked about everything thats happen we found out how to find the Acceleration with the two different velocities. The reason for this was so we can see the difference between the velocities. On the last day if the week we talked about accretion line graph and how they correspond with position and velocity graphs. The reason for this was to see how they match up so we can work with them.
