Post #13 - Semester Review

 This quarter I learned a great amount of knowledge and information about physics.
Unit 1 covered graphs, relationships, scientific notations, and dimensional analysis. Unit 2 covered kinematics (study of motion), movement in one dimension, motion maps, and graphing. Unit 3 covered uniform acceleration, stacking curves, and free fall. Unit 4 covered projectiles and we did the rocket lab to help better our understanding. Unit 5 covered forces in equilibrium, vectors, and newton's laws. Unit 6 covered forces in motion, friction, and full body diagrams.

I really liked doing the labs outside "field trips" because it was more interactive than inside labs. I really enjoyed doing the rocket lab because we got to shoot rockets high into the sky.

Some things I found challenging this semester were understanding concepts. There were some concepts like the full body diagrams and stacking curves were a little difficult. Practice helped me understand these concepts and in the end I had a better understanding about them.

  1. great post, its good to know that you also struggle with full body diagrams. i hope that asa team we can do better second semester.
