Students and parents,
This week we studied two specific examples of simple harmonic motion: pendulums, and mass on spring. Both of these examples exhibit wave behavior, which will segway us into waves and sound. We also covered Hooke's Law which relates the force on a spring to the distance the spring is compressed or stretched from its relaxed state. Yesterday the students began work on a handout that reviewed the concepts that we have covered thus far. Today we will begin a discovery lab on waves.
Thanks for checking in! I'll try to post some pictures of the students working on their lab later today.
Upcoming due dates:
Simple Harmonic Motion Practice Handout: Monday 1/14 at the beginning of class
