AP Physics 1: Continuing on the basics of a science class today, we performed a measurement lab, measuring the circumference and diameter of circles.

First quiz today: Dimensional Analysis

SO far we have covered unit conversions (metric to metric and metric to English), Significant Figures and how to manipulate them; and graphing lines, finding slopes and intercepts and interpreting what they actually mean given the data that is plotted.


IB Physics 12: Continued our review of Nuclear Physics by discussing decay (review from last year). New material (and the first concepts in chapter 7), Electron Energy levels, discreet energy, and emission spectra. 

Chapter 7 problems were assigned last period and you should be working on them.
Section 7.1: 3-5, 7-11, 14
Section 7.2: 16, 18, 19-23

Lab: "e/m ratio" was handed out today. It is an online lab. It is due on Friday, January 24th.
