Here are the questions on Einstein that we started in class today (due tomorrow): Einstein Questions Have fun!

Just in time for our studies of electron mechanics! OHIO: Research | Physicists capture first images of atomic spin: “Though scientists argue that the emerging technology of spintronics may trump conventional electronics for building the next generation of faster, smaller, more efficient computers and high-tech devices, no one has actually seen the spin—a quantum mechanical [...]

As part of our ongoing studies of quantum mechanics, we covered the four fundamental forces of nature today. Here are the handouts from our conversation: * FindingForces.pdf * ForcesofNature.pdf Please make sure to have them finished before class tomorrow!

Today we started our last unit of study… the fascinating world of quantum mechanics. The basics I hope you all gathered from our conversation today involves 1) Einstein’s objections to the developments of the quantum model and 2) the 4 forces of nature. We’ll go more in depth on these two areas this week. In [...]

Have a great weekend! We start on mechanics on Monday. Can’t wait!

I’ve emailed you the Electromagnetism Study Guide in preparation for our huge test next Friday (April 23)! Here’s a link to the Study Guide. Also, heres a link to that YouTube vid on Magnetic Domains we started watching in class today: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-arJTDUIo0 Have a great weekend!

Today we started our studies of magnetism. We’ll be exploring the following three points tomorrow: 1. What are the properties of all magnets? 2. How do magnetic poles interact? 3. How do magnetic fields behave? Some of this info is in your book (Chapter 19, section 1) but we’ll include information that is not in [...]

Today, we started wrapping up our studies of investigation. STUDY YOUR NOTES! If you need a good review, check out pages 706-713 in your textbook. Here are a couple of helpful (I think) vids: GrandPa John breaks it down (great explanation): And some good info on parallel and series circuits: Enjoy!
