1st Quarter Review
In the middle of our second week of class, the first quarter comes to close. So here's a quick recap of what we've learned so far:
Unit 1 - sort of a reintroduction to science courses, we went over conversions and the difference between accuracy and precision. Also an introduction to graphing, independent and dependent variables, and graph relationships (ex: linear, direct, inverse, exponential, square root).
Unit 2: Kinematics
Kinematics - The study of motion
We learned that you should always counter the question "is it moving?" with another question, "relative to what?'
Scalar vs Vector - scalar being a quantity that has magnitude, and vector being a quantity that has both magnitude and direction.
Unit 3: More Kinematics!
Equations were introduced to the Equation Board Not Bored in this lesson, such as DAT, VAT, and VAD. We also did a lot more work with graphs, like interpreting distance vs time, velocity vs time, and acceleration vs time.

Good job Maya, you really compressed the information well. It is a good small review I can come back to, to review quarter 1.
ReplyDeleteYou did a really good writing down only the most important information! You're descriptions were easily understandable and straight to the point, which I really like!
ReplyDeleteThat was a really good summarization. You covered all the really important topics, while leaving out any excess information. Really good recap!
