3/4 Physics update and homework due 3/18

Hi folks,

First off, NO CLASS NEXT WEEK. Next week is spring break so we will not be holding class.

Today we spent time studying waves and the definitions of the properties of waves. As a lab, I had the students investigate one of the amazing properties of a pendulum as we explored the concept of frequency and Hertz. Their job was to create a pendulum that had a frequency of .5 Hz, 1 Hz and 2Hz.

Homework for this week is to:

Read pp. 372 - 379 in the Conceptual Physics book
Do Review Questions pg. 387 #'s 1 - 11
Do Plug and Chug 1-5
