Week of 11/3: Tension at an Angle, forces at an Angle

2014-2015

Physics

Date

Nov. 3, 2014

Additional Info

**Test 2D Motion & Forces will be Tuesday, NOVEMBER 18 and **Bridges DUE ON Wednesday, November 19.

TODAY’S GOAL: To be able to solve tension problems given mass and an angle.

Essential Question to Ponder… How does angle effect tension?

HW: 1-20 on Problem Set (Selected Problems on the Modeling Physics Packet)

This week we have been working through various problems: Tension, 2D Forces, Vectors and Angle Problems through teacher directed problems, notes, peer tutoring and small group sessions. The problem solving skills needed in physics requires identifying the needed information in a given problem, identifying the missing variables and using algebra skills to solve (GUESS method).

Quiz: Tension and 2D Forces and angle problems on TUESDAY, November 11
