Reveiw of the week

1st thing we started working on in class

Inquiry labs

This involved the manual force pro and the electronic force pro. In class we recieved a bucket with around 8 different metal atom weights in grams. We had to convert g to kg and then finding how many newts where in them.



Notes taken when doing the converting from wolframAlpha















Design Review                              

problem: Big q/query

IV: Change

DV: Measure

Constants: Keep same

QuaLitative: descriptions

QuaNtitative: number's




Post-Game Analysis:


                 (Slope)                      (Y-intercept)
y     =          m         x         +       b                              
(DV)                     (IV)

In algebra/geometry we use this exact same equation when solving for the slope intercept form.


I would say that the best activity we did was yesterday. In class we had to build this:

TADAAA!!!!!

Steps:

1. Put a string aroud 1st pully 
2. Pully hanging off of steel bar
3. Then put string around another pully
4. Then tied the 100g on the loose string
5. Then on the 2nd puly we had wrapped the second piece of string it was connected to the 1st pully
6. Hanging off the 2nd pully was the 200g
7. When it was finished you could see that both the 100g and the 200g had evened out in weight - it was so cool. 

Whenever I think of the word balance I always think about how everyone has to keep a blance in their life with academics, work, events, sleep and sports. This lab was fun to do because u would think that the 200g weight would fall having the 100g weight  but infact they balanced out.
