Welcome ACP - KNIGHTS • Honors Physics Mrs. Lowe What is Physics? Physics is the science of matter, energy, space, and time. • It explains matter as combinations of particles which interact through the 4 major forces. Why are you here? So you can understand comics? So you can make lots of money? justification for higher education Because your parents said so? So you can graduate from high school?

My Family Sunrise Mountain H.S. ACP We are a team – please don’t be afraid to help me out – on occasion I do make mistakes. This is not about me – it’s about YOU. I graduated from High School, College, I’m here to help you. Please don’t be offended if I get your name wrong – I can’t remember my own kids names! Science Fairs • Students will participate in the Chandler District School Fair. • AND are strongly encouraged to participate in the Arizona Science and Engineering Fair. Topics of Study – Unit 1 Scientific Method • • • • • Metric Significant Figures Lab Format Graphical Methods Whiteboarding Topics of Study – Unit 2 Constant Velocity • • • • • Reference point Position Displacement Velocity Vectors Topics of Study – Unit 3 Constantly Accelerated Particle • • • • Uniformly accelerating Acceleration Average vs. instantaneous Free fall Topics of Study – Unit 4 Free Particle Constant Force Particle • • • • • • Inertia Newton’s 1st Law Forces and Force Diagrams Weight/Mass Newton’s Law of Motion Application of normal and friction forces Topics of Study – Unit 5 Vectors in 2D Particle Models Vectors Projectile Motion Other combinations of Particle Models Relative Motion Topics of Study – Unit 6 Energy • • • • • • Forms of Energy Work – Kinetic Energy Theorum Power Potential Energy Conservation of Energy Conservative and Non-conservative Forces Topics of Study - Unit 7 Impulsive Force • • • • • Linear Momentum Impulse Center of mass Collisions in 1D and 2D Conservation of Momentum Topics of Study – Unit 8 Central Force Particle • Kinematics and dynamics of uniform circular motion • Central Force Model Topics of Study – Unit 8 (cont.) Gravitation • • • • Kinematics Uniform circular motion Kepler’s Laws of Motion Newton’s Laws of Gravity Topics of Study – Unit 9 Charge Behavior and Interactions • Static Electricity • Coulomb’s Law • Electric Fields Topics of Study – Unit 10 Electric Potential • Energy in Fields • Potential • Equipotentials Topics of Study – Unit 11 Circuits • • • • Potential and Charge Distribution Electric Current Circuit Components Kirschhoff’s Rules Topics of Study – Unit 12 Magnetism • • • • Magnetic Fields Electric Currents Ampere’s Law Applications of Electricity and Magnetism (electromagnetism) Topics of Study – Unit 13 Light and Optics • Lights as Electromagnetic waves • Geometic Optics • Applications Whiteboarding • We conduct many “whiteboarding” sessions. • The main purpose is to discuss and share information – NOT to be correct. CHEER • • • • • C – Clarifying Questions H – Helping Questions E – Explanatory Questions E – Expanding Questions R – Reflecting Questions Required Materials • Keep ALL notes, homework, labs, review guides until the end of the year. • The semester exams are comprehensive. Grading • Tests & Quizzes • Labs & Projects 60% 40% • First Quarter = 40% • Second Quarter = 40% • Semester Exam = 20% Grades can be accessed online at any time Attendance • Your grade will reflect your attendance – especially in a laboratory class. • It is YOUR responsibility to get missed work. Need Help? ASK Cell Phones/Electronics • Not to be used during class • Use during an exam or lab will result in a zero • Only bottled water is permitted in class Consequences You ALWAYS have a choice – What you CAN’T do is choose your consequences Classroom Procedures Students have the right to learn and Teachers have the right to teach. Therefore, all rules will ensure that those rights are recognized. Signatures due FRIDAY Strive for the impossible and be extraordinary
