MLB List

I think I've named everything. Please tell me in the comments if I'm missing something. I'm still missing HWs from some of you. If you're not sure of what your missing please come talk to me.

Aristotle and his physics

Galileo and Copernicus (optional)

Lab #1

Galileo’s Dialogue

Newton’s Laws

2 Dimensional Kinematics (Velocity, acceleration and forces)

Bridges and Forces

Kepler’s Laws and Universal Gravitation

Excepts from Bertrand Russel’s ‘The Rise of Science’

More Bridges

Cable Bridges!

Bridges

Here are some pictures of different bridges exemplifying different styles and architecture. Ms. J knows this stuff way better than me, but it's pretty cool anyways I think.

These are some suspension and arch bridges:

Sorry for the late post. I'll prepare some notes and stuff for Friday and Monday's class about the different kinds of bridges and the way the forces interact with them. We'll also have a really short quiz on the math we've been doing with displacement and acceleration and what not. Finally on Friday we'll spend the forty five minutes seeing how well your bridges do.

Long Break

Over the two days I'm not there, Mr. J will be watching you guys. I've prepared a video for you guys to watch and I want you to watch it and then write a little one page paper that answers the question as best as you can, "what is a scientific theory and how does a 'theory' in the sense talked about in the nova episode compare to Galileo's thought experiment? Is he scientific?" There is no exact right answer to this question so quality of thought is what I'm looking for.

Also there is a quiz which he will give you on thursday.
