Tuesday October 14

In class today, we discussed our Reading Guide for Chapters 3, 4 and 5. I found this class period very informing as I had a lot of questions that got answered. I enjoyed the demonstration with the marker to demonstrate vertical incline. I thought this was interesting becuase that is a hard concept for me to understand. Work is the energy that we put in that gives us work. Also, the deomonstration on the board of what happens to Potentional and Kenetic Energy when one goes up and vice versa. When the potential energy and kenetic energy are in the middle, then they are equal. When the height gets less, then the potential energy gets less. In Kenetic energy, when the r goes up then the kenetic energy goes up. In potential energy, when the high goes up then the potential energy goes up.

Glad that it helped and thanks for your good blog posts. It really helps the instructor when student give open and honest feedback and guide their own learning so well.
