Today when I walked into Mr. Manning's seventh period physics class the board said that we would do Daily Questions, then work on problems on a worksheet, and then work on our powerpoint for the rollercoasters. The daily question that Mr. Manning had us figure out was A pool ball leaves a .60 meter high table with an initial horizontal velocity of 2.4 meters/second. Predict the time required for the pool ball to fall to the ground and the horizontal distance between the tables edge and the balls landing location. To answer this question, we had to set up two tables. One for horizontal components and one for vertical components. For the horizontal components, the diplacement equals .84 meters. The time equals .35 seconds. The acceleration equals 0 meters/second. The initial velocity of the pool ball was 2.4 meters/second. And the final velocity of the pool ball was 2.4 meters/second. For the pool ball's vertical components, the displacement was .60 meters. The time was .35 seconds. The acceleration was 9.8 meters/second. And the initial velocity was 0 meters/second. For the rest of the class we worked on our powerpoint about rollercoasters, which includes information about how rollercoasters work, the safety of rollercoasters and how they build rollercoasters. Today was also the deadline of our checks being due for our trip to hershey park on May 21st which I will be attending.
