JUNE 8, 2011



In today's class we did a lab experiment from the green booklet about Circuits.
The materials that you need are:

  • batteries
  • alligator clip.
  • light bulbs
  • sockets


We did two kinds circuits. Thes are Series and Parallel Ciruits.


  • This is one of the kinds of the circuits that we did;
    This one is called series circuit.
  • With this kind of circuit if you loosen one of the bulbs espescially the one in between, all of the lights, turned off.

  • Another type of series that we did is this one.
  • It is called,parallel circuit.
  • With this type of circuit, when you loosen up one of the bulbs. the current will still flow and the light did not turn off.




    The next blogger will be SAI.

READ PAGES 15-20!!!
DO PAGES 48-50!!!
finish page 14

Answer keys:

page 29

1) P=v^2/R
= (3)^2/30
= 0.3 W
2) T=v/R
=3/30
=0.1 A
3)power varies inversely with resistance. as R of bulb increases the amount of power of the bulb increases
4) E(or W)=Pt
= (.3)(3600)
= 1000J
page 31

1. resistance- property of an object that determines how much current will flow through that object
factors- length of the wire cross sectional area temperature material the object is made of.

2. voltage is a potential difference in other words voltage is PE/ charge. current is the movement of charge due to potential difference. thus, voltage is nothing more than a difference in potential and does not necessarily create a current. given the proper conditions, voltage causes charge to move and when they do a current is created

3. R=v/I
since v is a constant and R is increasing, the circuit must be decreasing

4. they allow complex circuits to be graphically illustrated clearly and concisely

June 2nd

Worked on Pages 44,45,46, and 48
Pages 5- 12

Notes:

An electric current is a flow of charged particles.
A conventional current is just a flow of a positive charge.
Charges can not be created or destroyed, but they can be seperated.
A resistor is a device designed to have a specific resistance.
Resistance is known as the ratio of potential difference to the current.
Temperature can increase resistance since a moving charge is affected by molecules, greater molecular motion would thus increase the resistance.

Formulas:

I = q/t
I is the conventional current measured in Amperes (A)
q is the charge measured in Coulombs (C)
t is the time measured in seconds (s)

P = IV
P is power measured in Watts (W)
V is the Potential Difference also reffered to as Voltage, it is measured in Volts (V)

R = V/I
R is the resistance, measured in ohms, the symbol omega (Ω) can be used to represent it.

R = pL/A
p is a constant(the resistivity of the metal) (Ω·m)
A is the crossectional Area (m^2)
L is the length of the material (m)

Useful Ratios to take note of:

R1/R2 = L1/L2
R1/R2 = A2/A1
R1/R2 = p1/p2

For P46

Nichrome wire resitivity at room temperature varies from 1.10 × 10−6 Ω*m to 1.5 × 10−6 Ω·m
Tungston wire resistivity at room temperature is 5.28 × 10−8 Ω·m

May 31

Today we were given our exam reviews and also started our new unit on electricity.
We preceded the unit with a lab; using a light bulb, wire and a 'big' battery, we were to find a few ways on how to light the bulb, and a few ways where we couldn't. We were to illustrate the circuit diagrams in our hand-out booklet on the back page of the lab.

Within the booklet, we were to read pages 5 to 12 and were to do worksheets 44,45 & 46.

The current, I, is measured in C/s and is represented by the unit A, amperes.
Potential Difference, V, is measured in J/C.
Power, P, is measured in J/s and is represent by the Watt, W.

I=q/t V=E/q P=IV E/t=IV

P=(q/t)(E/q)=E/t

P=(1 C/s)(1 J/C)=1 J/s


Please feel free to correct.

May 30 - Today's Class

In the beginning of class, we went over the questions from the "duck" book on page 585. The answers are below.
82.
a)
q= + 2e-
M = 6.69x10^(-27)kg
V1 Vertical = 0 m/s
V1 Horozontal = 6.0x10^(6)m
v = 500V
a = Fe/m
= qE / m
= qV/mdv
= (2(1.6x10^(-19)c)(500N))/((6.696x10^(.27)kg)(3.0x10^(-2)m))
= 7.97x10^11 m/s ^squared
dV = 0.03m
dH = 0.15m
t = dH/vH
= (0.15m)/(6.0x10^(-8))
= 2.5x10^-8 s
Therefore...............
change in dH = 1/2at^squared
= 1/2(7.97x10^(11)m/s^SQAURED)(2.5x10^(-8) s)^SQUARED
= 2.5x10^-4m or 0.025cm
3.0cm-0.025cm = 2.975cm from negative plate
*NOTE THIS QUESTION WILL NOT BE ON THE TEST*
b)
V2V=V1V+at
= 0 + (7.97x10^(11)m/s^SQUARED))(2.5x10^-8)s)
= 2.0x10^(4)m/s
V =_/(6.00x10^(6)m/s)+(2.0x10^(4)m/s)^SQAURED
= 6.0x10^6 m/s
83)
V = 39(N/C)(m)
D = 0.050m
V = Ed
E = V/d
= 39(N/C)/(0.050m)
= 7.8x10^2 N/C
85)
a)
Fg = Fe
Mg=Eq
mg/q = E
(4)(m)(g)/(2)(q) = E
E = (2(1.67x10^(-27))(9.8m/s^SQAURED))/(1.6x10^(-19)c)
= 2.04x10^-7 N/C
b)
V = (d)(E)
= (.03m)(2.04x10^(-7)N/C)
= 6.12x10^-9 V
86)
E = (v)/(d)
= (90V)/(0.12m)
= 766.67 N/C
87)
d = v/E
= (1200)/(450N/C)
= 0.27m
90)
a)
((m)(q))=((q)(E))
E = (V)/(d)
q = ((2.2x10^(-15)kg)(.0055m))/(280N)
= 4.2x10^-19C
b)
N = c/q
= (4.2x10^(-19))/(1.6x10^(-10))
= 2.6e-
= 3 e-
Today we also got a review for the exams. Questions like 83 and 85 will most likely be on the test this wednesday. STUDY!!

Hi class today Mrs. Kozoriz was away and we had a sub. The instructions Mrs. K left for us were that we were to read pages 36-40 in our pink Electric and Magnetic Fields booklet and complete the problems on pages 45 and 47 as well as complete pages 49-50. Also if you did not yet finish the Charges, Energy and Voltage Lab you were to also work on it in class.

May 17th, 2011

Hi Class, today we went over pages 42 and 43 in the pink Electric and Magnetic Fields booklet. The answers on page 42 are as follows:


1. PE decreases, KE increases.


2. Similarly, a force pushes the charge closer to the charged sphere. The work done in moving the test charge is the product of the average FORCE and the DISTANCE moved. W = F x d. This work INCREASES the PE of the test charge. If the test charge is released, it will be repelled and fly past the starting point. Its gain in KE at this point is EQUAL to its decrease in PE.


3. Electric PE/CHarge has the special name Electric POTENTIAL.


Since it is measured in volts it is commonly called VOLTAGE.


4. 1 Volt


5. 12 Joules


6. 5000 Volts


7. 5000 Volts


8. 5000 volts


9. 0.005 Joules


10. CHARGE

We also got and worked on a lab called Charges, Energy , Voltage. If you weren't there for the lab please go see Ms. Kozoriz for the lab sheet and complete the lab. The lab setup is on page 430 in the Green Textbook.

MAY 16 - Today's Class

At the begginning of class, we were asked to open the new pink bookleet titled Electric and Magnetic Fields and turn to page 13 which we went over the question. The answer for this question is:

F1 on B = (k)(qA)(qB)/R^2
= (9x10^9)(4.5x10^-6)(-8.2x10^6)/(0.040m^2)
= 208 N {L}

DISTANCE BETWEEN THE OTHER TWO CHARGES IS:

_/ means sqaure root

C = _/(0.040m^2)+(0.030m^2)
= 0.050m

" means inverse

Oi = tan"~0~(0.030m/0.040m)
= 37 degrees

F2 Fc on B = (k)(qC)(qB)/(R^2)
= (9x10^9)(8.2x10^-6 c)(6.0x10^-6 c)/(0.040m^2)
= 177 N at 217 degrees from positive x-axis

~0~ means theta
dg means degrees

COMPONENTS OF F1 are:

F2 x = (F2)(cos~0~)
= 177 N(Cos~0)(~217dg)
= 142 N {L}

F2 y = (F2)(Cos~0~)(Sin~0~)
= (177 N)(Sin~0~217dg)
= 106 N {Down}

COMPONENTS OF NET (Resultant Force) FORCES ARE

Fnet x = -208 N - 142 N
= -350 N or 350 N {L}

Fnet y = 106 N

Then...............

Fnet = _/(350 N^2)+(106 N^2)
= 366 N or 350 N {L}

~0~ 2 = Tan" (106 N)/(350 N)
= 17 dg below the negative x-axis

Fnet = (3.7x10^2) at 197dg from positive x-axis

Then in class we were asked to read pages 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20. The things that was important were the things in bold. The pages also went on a previous lessons about work. Remeber that potentional energy increases if the height of an object increases creating a bigger fall. Then we were asked to do questions in the booklet pages 42, 43 but we didn't go over them. Tommorow we will I think.

Monday, May 02

Hey, grade 12's. If you were not in class today, this is what we do:

First, we watched a video about Satellite Motion. We took down 5-7 facts about the movie. Also we handed our facts to Ms.K

After the movie, we went over the questions on page 32 in our grey booklet - Grade 12 Physics: Fields Exploration of Space. Here are the answers:

1. PE= -3.13x10^10 J
2. ET=EK+EP
=-2.36x10^9 J
3.∆Etotal=∆Etotal(in orbit)-∆Etotal(on earth)
=-2.36x10^9 J - (-3.13x10^10 J )
= 2.89x10^10 J
4. Etotal(in orbit) =-2.36x10^10 J ; you would need to put in 2.36x10^9 J of energy to escape earth's orbit
5. * R must include Re+ Rsatellite
PE= -1.18x10^11 J


Although there would be no class tomorrow due to a staff meeting, we would be going over the questions on REVIEW: CHAPTER 8 found on page 36-37 in the grey booklet.

Hi guys! If you miss today's class here are the things that we did.
In the beginning of class Ms. K let us watch videos explaining Kepler's Law of Planetary Motion. If you're unfamiliar with Kepler's three laws, refer to your gray booklet in pages 6&7.

After we watched the videos, we went over Transparency 7-1 in page 21-22. Here are the answers to the questions:
1. gravitational force
2. elliptical
3. at one focus of Earth's elliptical orbit
4. at the point closest to the sun
5. at the point farthest from the sun
6. area(1)=area(2)
7. T(1)=T(2). Since the Earth's velocity varies, the time it takes to sweep out equal areas along its orbit is the same.

Lastly, for tomorrow's class we are to finish pages 15-18.

Thursday, March 24 -Working on Centripetal Force Lab

For today's physics class we continued on working on the Centripetal Force Lab. It seems as though most people finished gathering their data and started to answer This lab shows the relations between centripetal force and speed. After writing down the data from the lab procedures, we begin to answer the questions stated in the booklet. The accuracy of the data might produce a variety of different results for this lab, however they should all be relatively close. It is imperative to keep close attention to the lab beforehand so that answering the questions will be easier.The data of the graphs provided us with the information to conclude that there is a power relation between force, speed an speed squared. Even though the shape of the two graphs are different they both illustrate that there is a power relation between their variables.

Question 1 and 3 of the booklet tells us to graph our data, with force as our independent variable and speed or speed squared as our dependent variable.

Questions 2 and 4 asks us what the relationship between the two variables are. It is shown that speed and speed squared have a power relation to force.

Question asks how if the formula Fc = mv^2/r supports the data we have gathered from the experiment. Since both mass and radius does not change it is clear that the formula is supposed to support the gathered data.

Also we were supposed to work on page 17 and 18, with the answers posted on page 25
and pages 21 and 22. Finishing all of these would be good practice and also would be good so that there will be lessened homework during spring break. That is all I have to say for this scribe.

Wednesday March 23 2011 - Centripetal Force

In today's class, we were instructed to carry out our Centripetal Force labs. I'm unable to post any data which my partner and I received during the lab as we're suppose to perform the procedure on our own and also because the way the lab is performed may cause differences in data from group to group. I highly suggest that any of those who were unable to make it to class and could not do the lab, do their best to finish this particular one because it's fairly straight forward and easy to record and also very enjoyable. Another suggestion is that before going ahead with the lab, read it through and record the measurements you're using as they are important for calculations concerning time and speed. Also remember to look at the "Interpretation" questions on the next page as they will require the plotting of a graph and comprehension of the obtained data.

*Note
When carrying out the lab be sure to keep a constant distance with the stopper attached to the string. This is indicated by the alligator clip. Use that specific measurement for each time you go and change the number of washer. Be sure to record this measurement.

There's not much more I can say for this scribe but to just get the lab done and to finish the homework in the green booklets. It's almost spring break and I think everyone would like little or no homework for the break so do as much as possible.

Physics Lab Worksheet ; On Target

For those who were not in class today we did our 'On Target' lab which can be found in your ivory booklet Projectile Motion page 19. We got into our groups and built a target launcher that would be able to fling a ping-pong ball a distance of 1 meter. We were able to use anything we could think of that would help us with this lab. Once we built our target launcher, we started to fill in our data tables. Although, it was kinda difficult, most of us groups got our data tables filled.
I think the next step would probably answer the 'Analyze' and 'Conclude and Apply'.

patrickd to scribe next.

MOMENTUM

at the beginning of the class Ms. Kozoriz show us a video and then we answered the questions in the booklet.










After that, we read p. 189-191 of the greem book and the problems 13,14,15
PROBLEMS:
13. A 1325 kg car moving north at 27.0 m/s collides with a 2165 kg car moving east at 17.0 m/s. They stick together. draw a vector diagram of the collision.
14. A 6.0 kg object, A, moving at velocity 3.0 m/s collides with a 6.0 kg object, B, at rest. After collision, A moves off in a direction 40.0º to the left of its original direction. B moves off in a direction of 50.0ºto the right of A's original direction.
a. draw a vector diagram the momenta of the object A and B after collision.
b. what is the velocity of each object after the collision?
15. A stationary billiard ball, mass 0.17 kg is struck by an identical ball moving at 4.0 m/s. After the collision, the second ball moves of at 60.0º to the left of its original direction.The stationary ball moves off at 30.0º to the right of the second ball's original direction . What is the velocity of each ball after the collision?

Impulse and Momentum

At the beginning of the class, we went over the answers for the worksheets assigned yesterday.
Here are the answers for those worksheets:

Page 6
1. twice
2. twice
3. the same as
4. a) the same
b) the same
c) the same
d) bug
e) the bug of course!

Page 15















Later in the class, we took down notes on how to derive the impuls
e-momentum equation from both the 2nd law and a graph.










This equation can be used to solve problems such as finding time and the force exerted.











Unit for impulse is N x S
Change in p is measured in
kg x m/s







We also took down notes on the different types of collisions.

















*Remember, in an elastic collision, the objects do not stick together after the collision, but bounce off each other. In an inelastic collision, the objects stick together and move as one after the collision.

Remember to finish page 7, 8 and 16 in the booklet.
