2- (a,b) b) a= 6m/s2
3- (d,e) c) a= 0m/s2
4- (still downward) d) -2m/s2
5- (c,f) e) a= -10 m/s2
6- (c,f) f) a= 0 m/s2
Sheet # 2 Gravitational fields of force relative to earth

sheet # 3 Falling and Air Resistance
1. Air Resistance = Weight
2. Air Resistance/weight is less
3. 0 N
4. Air Resistance= 100N[up]
5. Fnet increases, acceleration increases
6. Gains more speed in 1st second of fall gains more distance in 9th second
7. Fnet is different for both tennis ball and sand tennis ball, has greater Fnet air resistance has more effect on lighter tennis ball, so its acceleration is less

Free-Body Diagrams
And the Vectors addition using components with the method how to used.
Scribe for tomorrow is roxanne.
Sunday, December 9, 2007
Dec. 7
Then we got into groups, and played on some dusty old "laptops". We practiced on drawing free body diagrams on a program that kept asking annoying questions. Next, we got two worksheets called Free-Body Diagrams and Force-Vector diagrams. That's about it.
Next to scribe is Adriana!

Dec 06, 07 Bloggggg
Yesterday's class was pretty easy overall, mostly just worksheets. If you remember from the 4th, we did the lab on acceleration/force, and had to construct a couple graphs from the data, and answer a question. For the beginning of the class we finished up these graphs/questions (if you hadn't been able to do so previously.) Those were handed in upon completion during the class.
After that we were given 3 worksheets on forces and free-body diagrams. One of these was an actual worksheet, the other two were, a.) a bundle with strategies for drawing freebody diagrams and b.) a table showing types of forces, their abbreviations, and what directions they act in. Yesterday we worked on the sheet, "Free-Body Diagrams: Linear Motion" although it didn't need to be handed in at that time.
Well I think that about covers it all, so now its time to announce the next scribe.
That being said, it's Jenny :p

Newton's Laws of Motion!
*ahem . . .
Today we dug right into the textbook first thing to finish Chapter 5 Study Guide. I'm not going to write down all the answers because I'm sure you can get them from your fellow peers, and if I did write them down it'd look ..quite abstract ...
Anyway, one thing you must remember however; If there is no net force on an object, then the object remains at rest, or moves with constant velocity in a straight line.
After we went over the answers to the front side of that study sheet, we received three worksheets based individually on Newton's Laws of Motion; Inertia, Force and Acceleration, and Action and Reaction. We went over the first two worksheets (3-1, and 4-1), and 5-1 was assigned for homework.
Tomorrow we will be doing a lab based on Newton's 2nd Law. We were also told that we would expect a test on Tuesday (Dec. 11th).
Ending my blog post I will choose the next scribe whiiich iiiiss .... (I'm really tempted to choose Justus just to see how mad he'll get this time.. hahaha) but I'll chooooose Jessica!
JANET OUTT! :)

December 3, 2007 Blog By Vieteran. (Tony)
Inertia according to the Wikipedia's dictionary is "a non-quantifiable property of matter by which it remains at rest or in uniform motion in the same straight line unless acted upon by some external force." During the video we had to take down 8 points to what's going on in the video. The video has that University teacher that us students find funny.
After the video we were given an assignment by the teacher, a fill in the blank assignment that is. To find the answers for the blanks, use the green booklet. We'll most likely have some time to complete this assignment in class tomorrow and also correct it.
This concludes this blog.
janet can scribe for Tuesday!!!

11 / 26 /07
We talked about the difference between constant velocity and changing velocity (acceleration). Make sure you know the difference. We went over Ch.4.1 Study Guide (acceleration).
All we did basically was work on the two acceleration worksheets that we got today. Also the booklet appendix 3.8 was due and don't forget to study for the test on Thursday.
Emman can scribe for Tuesday!!!!!

Thursday's Scribe
all we basically did was cover the very last page of the sample problem booklet. Then ms.kozoriz let us (well who ever wanted to use it) the smart board. Which had to do with the motion sensor. She handed us the assignment that is due on MONDAY NOVEMBER 26/07. The assignment is Appendix 3.8: Motion: Interpreting Position-Time Graphs. And had also handed us notes to look over which was Constant Velocity. Thats what we'll be learning next.
Well have a niiice long weekend =)

So here are the answers for those who were not in class today...
Problem A
1. +9km
2. -5km
3. +6km
4. +4km

Nature of Light Review: Part 2
So first things first, We started the class by going over questions 17, 18, 19 and 20. Ms K. has posted the answers up already. thanks Ms. k! hehe
Then she gave us a review on the smart board. And went over it with us. and agian she has posted it for everyone. Thanks agian Ms k! She's so nice.
And that is all we did in class today.
Test tomorrow!
GOOD LUCK. everyone!

Another Scribe...
After that, Ms. K made us read The Photoelectric Effect and the Wave-Particle Duality section of our PINK booklets. Here’s a short summary on the back of the book that goes over some of the main points we read about in class:
A photoelectric effect, talks about the discharge of electrons from a metal surface when it is exposed to electromagnetic radiation, (we looked at an example of this on the internet).
The only way electrons are ejected from a metal is if the frequency of the radiation is above a particular minimum value which is referred to as the threshold frequency. This threshold frequency varies with every metal.
Albert Einstein proposed that the energy of light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation is concentrated in discrete bundles of energy called photons. He stated that the amount of energy in each of these bundles was a discrete, fixed amount that depended on the frequency of the light.
When light passes through a medium, its behavior is explained best using wave properties. When light interacts with matter, its behavior is more like that of a particle. Light has a Wave-particle duality.
And don’t forget…
The Principle of Complementarity, this states that “to understand a specific experiment, one must either use the wave or the photon theory but not both”. In general the wave theory best explains the behavior of light when it passes through space or a medium. When light interacts with matter, its behavior is more like that of a particle.
The last thing we did was watch Ms. K play with some dog on a skateboard on a sting for the rest of the period.
The next scribe will be.......i don't know.

Also... do questions 13, 14 and 15 in the problem booklet.
Tomorrow's scribe is Shelly =]
Wednesday, November 7, 2007
Wed. Nov. 07/07
In class, the first thing that we did was correct questions 5-8 in the pink booklet. The questions were about the Nature of Light. After all those corrections we read pages 12 - 16 in the other pink booklet without the questions. It was about Huygen's principle of light. We at that point got a worksheet that we had to fill in with supporting and countering points about Huygen's theories of different characteristics of light such as rectilinear propagation, reflection, dispersion, etc. That was about it.
Now that I'm done, I have to pick a scribe for tomorrow. The scribe will be stePhanie! Have fun! heh.

Dual Scribe (Monday Nov .5 + Nov .6)
Well since I was chosen as the scribe for yesterdays lesson, (and inevitably forgot to do the actual blog) I'll be your lovely blog guide for both yesterday AND today.
Yesterdays class we first corrected questions 1 and 3 from the supplementary question booklet.
Those answers are as follows.
1.) When a "particle" such as a steel ball strikes a hard surface, it's speed is usually reduced. If the speed of light were reduced how would the light appear to be different after the reflection as compared to the incoming light beam? (You will need to use your knowledge of how the speed of light, the wavelength of light, and the frequency are related from your previous work on waves.)
So the answer to this question quite simply is that the colour of the light would change. If the Beam of light slowed down, then the distances between the particles of ligh would also change (the wavelength.) With changes in wavelength, changes in colour also occur.
3.) From the Brief descriptions given above of Planck's quantum hypothesis, how does it compare with newtons corpuscular theory?
With this question the answer is also equally simple. Planck's quantum hypothesis describes light as, "bundles or packets of energy" while the corpuscular theory describes it as particles. Both have similar ideas on how light exists.
With those questions out of the way we were given pages 8-11 to read, (Determining the Speed of light.) and were handed out a worksheet (Contributions to the Determination of the Speed of Light.) You were allowed to work on this sheet if you so choose. On the contributions worksheet you were to find information about ONE of the scientists seen in pages 8-11 (either in the booklet or on the internet.
Tuesday November 6th
Today we started working on the worksheet from Monday (Contributions to the Determination of the Speed of Light) which is finished, is to be handed in (however it isn't due until Wednesday.) Once finished the Contributions worksheet, you were to Do problems 5-8 in your pink problem booklet which are due tomorrow (as we're going to o over them.)
Alright, now that I'm finished, its time for the best part.
to choose the next scribe.
Which we already know to be Francis :)
Aight' den. Justus out.

Friday's class, October 26th
Sorry for the late reply, as we speak I just finally figured the problem with my computer.
So last Friday we had a pretty simple class, we basically did some review on graphing to get ready for the test.
We started off by working on a graphing worksheet which we corrected in class. We then read page 17 in our pink booklet and finished off class working on a worksheet questions 1-5, Which I believe you can find the answers to on the blog.
That about sums up the class. The regular scribe for tomorrow is still the same, again sorry for the late post. Remember to hand in any late assignments now before the terms marks are in, good luck.
Post Halloween scribe
This is mark your scribe for today. Today in class we read pages 3-8 on our pink booklet. Then after that we were supposed to answer the sheet called "chart for evaluating the models of light". Lastly, after we finish the sheets we were supposed to read pages 8-11 on our booklets. I will conclude this scribe by assigning NGUYEN as the scribe for tomorrow's class.
Thats it, good night everyone!

October 30, 2007 - Class Before The Threat.
Blogger : Vieteran
Blogger For Tomorrow : Unknown.
Today in class we wrote a test which was mainly what we did in class. To me, it seemed the test was quite simple besides some definitions I might get wrong, I feel as if I did well because I studied quite awhile for the test.
After the test we received a new booklet. The booklet is called "The Nature of Light : Part The Wave and Particle Models of Light". We are supposed to read pages 2, 3, 4. After reading, we received an assignment.
For this assignment we are supposed to find when the theories for Tactile, Emission, Particle and Wave were made, by who and how they describe light. No, after doing this you're not finished. You have to draw a diagram for each theory on the back of the page.
This concludes this blog.
PS : Today was Awot's birthday. Happy Birthday Bro.

Nature of Light
After that Mrs. k handed out three worksheets for us to work on in class. One of the sheets was a graph speed vs time and we had to find the slope of that. On the second sheet we were working on graphing techniques. On the third one we were doing visualizing data.
That was the things we did in class today!
REMINDER we have a TEST on Tuesday. so make sure you study!
Lee will scribe for Friday.

Scribe post for Friday, Oct. 19th
Well, we started our new unit in class on friday, Significant Figures. We got a few worksheets on the rules, information and practice questions.
Some tricky ones (I found were tricky at least..) was..
1) 3.007 km
that zero is significant because it is between two significant figures (3 and 7)
* rule: zeros between two other significant digits are always significant
2) 819 000.0 g
this measurement has seven significant figures
* rule: all final zeros after the decimal point are significant
3) 60 000 x 103 g
this measurement has only 1 sig fig.
* rule: zeros used only for spacing the decimal point are not significant
We also did some practice on sig. figs with mathematical calculations. Takes some extra thinking but we'll get used to it ... Oh and we also did some unit conversions.
That should pretty much cover the class... Test tomorrow! (Monday) Study hardy! Good luck everyone :)
Oh yeah scribe ... (WOW they'll have an easy scribe, just say we had a test?) Is ... um.. hanz?

Answers to the questions are:
22) (5/4) x 384 = 480 Hz -> B Note.
23) a. Fundamental Frequency = largest one, or line at the far left.
b. number of Harmonics would not be the same
c. White Noise would have all the same size bars
26) C4 = 256 Hz
C5 = 512 Hz (1 octave)
C6 = 1024 Hz (2 octave)
27) Both instruments produce harmonics for the fundamental frequencies. But the amplitude and harmonics are different.
Awot is to scribe for Friday.

Wednesday, October 17
Anyways, here's what we did in class today. We got the Sound Waves worksheet handed back to us from the 15th. We also watched the laser disc slide thinger again and wrote a sentence for each chapter we watched as a sort of guideline for the test.
We went over the answers for questions 1, 2, 6, 11, 14, 17, 18 and 19 and also did a lab. Our lab was Making a Straw Oboe, and basically we snipped the flatten end of a straws to make it pointed and blew through them to make a sound. (which got very annoying at the end by the way *ahem, ahem*) =P
The lab worksheet is due tomorrow, don't forget to do it.
Oh and here are the answers to the questions in our yellow booklets (again.. because I'm sooo nice)
1. Animals that rely on an acute sense of hearing for survival often have large external ear parts. The large ears intercept and direct more of the sound energy into the auditory system than small outer ears do.
3. 0 - 3 dB
(10 x 10 x 10 = 1000x)
6. 40 dB -----> 80 dB
40 - 50 = 10x
40 - 60 = 10 x 10
40 - 70 = 10 x 10 x 10
40 - 80 = 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 1000x
11. a) 5 seconds b) f = 1/T = 1/5s = 0.2 Hz
14. 440 Hz + 5 = 445 Hz & 436 + 9 = 445 Hz
Frequency = 445 Hz
17. Wavelength increased in water.
18. Lower frequency.
19. Higher frequency.
The next scribe will be Crystal.. only because his name rhymes with Me. haha =)
Alrighty later days. See you folks tomorrow morning.
Tuesday, October 16, 2007
Tues., Oct. 16/07
That's pretty much all we did in class.
The next scribe will be sonson. Whoever that is.
Monday, October 15, 2007
Answers!
Anyways, today we basically jsut corrected answers so I'll start w/ the ones from the yellow booklet.
8.
a) Intensity = energy transported past a given area /time. Objective number. Loudness = depends on the amplitude of the wave.
b) Frequency = vibrations per second *Objective measure* Pitch = Perception of sound *subjective*
Note: Objective means that its non selective while subjective means its selective hearing, etc. For example, volume on a television might be louder to one person compared to another person.
9) 20Hz -> 20, 000 Hz. The range is called the audio spectrum
10)
a) 5 Hertz
b) t=1/f=1/5=0.2 seconds.
Thats that for the yellow booklet. Then we went over the worksheet we had to do over the weekend.
Worksheet answers:
1) 344 m/s
2) air = 340.4 m/s wood = 4000m/s vwood/vair = 4000 m/s /340.4m/s = 12x faster in wood.
3) a) 4.1km b) 4.16km c)4.31km d) 4.01km
4) wavelength = 0.38cm
5) 640m
6) 13.3 C
7)a)347m/s b)323m/s
8) 344.6m/s
And that's about it for today's blog. We also got handed out a sheet of five questions. You only have to do the first four, but if you feel like having a crack at number five, by all means. G'niight all. I gotta stop staying up so late.

Speed of Sound lab
Well today in physics we did a lab. It was on The Speed Of Sound. For this lab we had 2 graduated cylinders, one filled with hot water and one filled with ice water. In each of the graduated cylinders there were glass tubes. We had to take a tunning fork, hit it on the bottom of our shoe or with a rubber hammer so it would make noise. Then hold it over the glass tube and slowly bring up the glass tube with the tunning fork. We had to measure the Loud Sound and the Quiet Sound with a meter stick. We then had to find the wavelength and the velocity of each. We had to answer some questions at the bottom of the page. Ms.k then gave us a handout worksheet "Grade 11 Physics: Unit 1.3 Sound".
Have a fun weekend =)
Mr. Lawrence can scribe for Monday's class because he broke Ms K's rubber hammer:((

Review
Today, we watched a video titled : Vibrations and Sound. This video was practically a review of what we had learned in previous lessons. During this video, we had to jot down six points and hand it in by the end of the day, such things as: Amplitude = A, frequency = f, the normal is the equilibrium, time is stated as period and such. It also mentioned sound and light waves. Transverse and longitudinal waves were also reviewed, as well as interference. He then started to talk about Laser disks, which were practically like vinyl records but looked a lot like compact disks. We learned that the speed of the disk travels faster on the outside of the disk, rather than the inside.
Later on after the video, we received our tests back and went over the answers.
That's all for today kids. The next scribe shall be...
SONSON!

Why Me
The whole period we worked on a lab assignment (Sounds and Their Sources) which was due today. So I guess ill just go over the questions with the answers I got, (MIND that my answers my not be all correct because I’m not “Chris Cadonic”.
F.Y.I: The scribe will be announced at the end of this scribe.
Musical Rulers
1. The ruler vibrates to produce the sound. The less amount of ruler off the edge of the table, the less vibration occurs.
2. The pitch of the sound is determined by the amount of the ruler there is hanging of the edge of the table. The more off the edge of the table, the lower the pitch.
3. The sound can be made louder or softer by the amount of pressure you use to pluck the ruler. The more pressure you add to your pluck, the louder and sound and the less pressure the softer the sound.
Sound from a Tuning Fork
1. You can turn to page 3 in our Sound booklet, if I had more time I would demonstrate my mastery skills on paint, but I don’t so too bad. Page 3 had a diagram of what your sketch should resemble
2. Striking the tuning fork harder makes the sound make louder then just striking it normal.
3. The frequency is responsible for the different sounds of the two tuning forks, because they vibrate freely; the frequency depends on the length between the pendulums. The shorter the pendulums the higher the frequency.
Sound from a Graduated Cylinder
1. The sound changes depending on the level the water is at in the cylinder. The less amount of water in the cylinder the lower the pitch gets.
2. To make the sound louder you need to blow closer to the open end of the graduated cylinder.
3. The air molecules are vibrating to produce the sound. The molecules are being compressed and stretched.
4. Our predictions were correct, as we added water while blowing the sound gradually got higher.
5. A possible explanation for the change in sound would be that there was either less or more space for the air to travel, therefore changing the sound.
So that’s all the answers to the lab we did in class today. I hope I never has to do another scribe in this class again (I did my fair share of scribes in grade 12 AP pre calculus with Mr. K).
AND THE SCRIBE IS…………………………………..
I have no idea so ill tell in class tomorrow.
It will be roxee!

Interference Exercise
so we didn't do much work in class. All we did was watching interference video and correcting the Interference Exercise.
Here are the answers for the interference exercise we did:
1 a) the answer is basically drawing a line on the third nodal line
b) Constructive Interference

Refraction
When a wave travels at an angle into a medium in which its speed is less, the refracted wave ray is bent (refracted) towards the normal. For example, when a wave ray travels from deep water to shallow water, the angle of refraction is smaller than the angle of incidence. And when a wave ray travel from shallow water to deep water, the angle of refraction is bigger than the angle of incidence. Don't forget to do the Worksheet 23 and exercises about refraction.

Friday's Class September 28
Sorry for being a couple days late as I had computer problems, but alas here I am with Fridays blog.
We started off class correcting questions 9-14 in the green booklet which was due Friday. If you missed them here they are:
9. Station A
10.200 meters
11.294 Hz
12.Orange

We also corrected the worksheet Refraction pg.31 up to question 4. Again if you were not at class, Ms. K has uploaded the answers to the blog. After that we received a worksheet called Interference Exercises and read pages 16-18 in the green booklet on interference.
And lastly we received a review for the upcoming test on Wednesday. (not 100% sure on the date) So remember to study hard and prepare for it. Also remember to ask any questions you have in class.
The next scribe will be...

Physics Class - September 19, 2007.
- Reflection of Circular Waves from a Straight Barrier.
- Waves in Two Dimensions - Assignment 1.
Our homework is to complete the sheet Waves in Two Dimensions - Assignment 1 because it's due the following day.
The End of Waves in One Dimension
So, basically we corrected that assignement we were supposed to do (This was Monday) those being, the rest of the end of the wokbooklet (Questions 6-14) Ms. Kozoriz. To know you've got the right questions going on, make sure it's Waves in 1D (one dimesion). So if you need to check your answers to the questions, feel free to scroll down to the lovely Ms K.'s slideshow, and have a click around, and it's our time spent on the smartboard that day, figuring this stuff out.
Besides that, all the really happened is we prepared for the test, which occured on tuesday. Now that we're finished with Waves in 1Dimension, it's on to Waves in, yup, you guessed it, TWO dimensions. I'll hand it off to Mr. Lawrence for the honours of blogging about that lesson.
Oh, also, if I forgot anything that we did in this post (as I can be somewhat forgetful) lemme know, and I'll add it in asap.

Waves in 2D
ANYWAYS, We started off class with a lovely test. Isn't that just dandy.
Then, we received a second booklet entitled: " Waves in Two Dimensions'' and we practically looked at circular waves, which can be generated on the surface of a liquid by a point source such as a drop of water, or a drop of any kind of object for example, your finger. Also, we learned that if a crest or trough is continuous, it's referred to as a wavefront. To show how the wave is traveling, we just simply create an arrow at right angles to the wavefront, in which this line is called the wave ray.
*Pictures can be located in your booklets on the back of the first page.*
Next, we looked at reflections. To put it simply, the wave ray is bounced back at exactly the same angle it hit the barrier, so if it hits the barrier straight on, it'll reflect straight back, thus, if it hits a barrier at a forty-five degree angle, it'll bounce off the barrier at a forty-five degree angle, in which we can presume the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
*Angle of Incidence is the angle between the incident wavefront and the barrier while the angle of reflection is the angle between the reflected wavefront and the barrier.*
It'll look a little something like this :
I think that about does it, and I know its late but just to let you know, we have that paper due next Tuesday as well as homework.
Also, the Next scribe shall be...

"Chapter 14?! Wow you guys are fast!"
Anyway... HELLO! I'm Jadanet, I couldn't scribe yesterday because I had work afterschool, and wouldn't be able to access a computer until after 10. So here I am today! It's late right now too.. but that's okay because it's the weekend :D
So today what we did in class was a CHAPTER 14 Study Guide booklet. Okay... really it was 3 pages, not a booklet persay.. :) It consisted of a brief summary about all the waves and things related to it that we've been covering for the past week. In the format of "fill in the blanks", we used textbooks to aid us. That took a majority of the class period and at the end of it we went over the answers.
Here are the answers if you couldn't catch them:
1) TYPES OF WAVES
- mechanical, material, electromagnetic, no, particles, matter, 3, perpendicular, motion, parallel, motion, surface, parallel, perpendicular, single, continuous, vibrating, harmonic.
2) THE MEASURES OF A WAVE: FREQUENCY, WAVELENGTH AND VELOCITY
- shortest, motion, cycles, second, hertz, hz, hz, f= 1/T, T, f, wavelength, lamda(λ), high, low, v=λ·f
3) AMPLITUDE OF A WAVE
- maximum, equilibrium, energy.
4) WAVES AT BOUNDARIES BETWEEN MEDIA
- amplitude, frequency, property, equal, equal, incident, transmitted, energy, reflected, most, little, inverted, erect, frequency, amplitude, speed.
5) SUPERPOSITION OF WAVES
- independently, displacement, sum, displacement, superposition, same, greater, shape, size, opposite, zero, destructive interference.
6) STANDING WAVES
- undisturbed, destructive, displacement, constructive, standing, stationary, standing still.
And that's all we did and covered! I'm guessing we'll be going over reflection, refraction, diffraction and interference of waves on Monday. So study hardy for the test on Tuesday!
Scribe on Monday will be "Hi I'm Justus"! :)

Waves On Snaky
1) a. Wavelength = 6.7 cm
b. Amplitude = 1.5 cm
2) Frequency = 0.5 hertz
Period = 2 seconds
3) Statement 1: The period of a 440-hertz sound wave is 0.0023 second
Statement 2: A marine weather station reports waves along the shore that are 8 seconds apart. The frequency of the wave is therefore 0.125 hertz.
4) a. Frequency = 600Hz
b. Wavelength = 0.57m
5) a. Distance = 30m
b. The distance decreases
6) a. Wavelength = 30cm
b. The wavelength decreases
7) Speed = 2m/s
Period = 0.5s
8) Speed = 3m/s
Period = 0.5s
9) Automobile moves towards the listener, the sound of its horn = high pitched
Automobile moves away from the listener the sound of its horn = low pitched
10) Wave frequency
Then we Ms. K got the class (whats left of it) in groups of 3 and assign a lab about the transverse waves and the longitudinal waves that involves the slinky, and in tomorrow 's class we'll continue to work on the lab.
HOMEWORK: Wave Problems: questions 1 -5 page 12 in the handout (Grade 11 Physics: Waves in One Dimension)
Tomorrows scribe will be....... Jenny!

Continuous or Periodic transverse waves
My name is Mark and i am the scribe for last Friday's class. We started off by looking at how waves are formed and some key terms ( the key terms can be found on the first page of the handout). Then after that we looked at the anatomy of a wave which can also be seen HERE. Then lastly we looked at the formulas on how to find frequency and period and worked on some of the questions from the handout.
Do not forget that our homework for this weekend is just to e-mail Ms. Kozoriz.
The next scribe will be .............. Aznflame.
