eLearning Friday!

Below are links to use for Friday's virtual class. Do these when convenient, and be sure to email or share your work with Doc V.

For Attendance: 

I got this yesterday, so I was unable to share with you in class. But there is a Google Form at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd5uyD35J8Onh7PS1jHCfc7nREQR-YbhHhOmIfSoxlwRVivgA/viewform that students should sign for attendance purposes. It needs to be today, and the administration will then confirm attendance with the state so this can be an official day of school. You only need to sign in once, and that will take care of all classes.

*For the Chem/Phys classes: got word that no name appears for one of the two periods - this should not be an issue for attendance, and is a feature for how the school sets up the gradebook. Even if it shows up next week, it will not be a problem correcting it! 

The assignment, though, can be done at your convenience any time through the weekend! 

Period 3-4, 8-9:
For magnetic forces, F = qv x B, try two ActivPhysics simulations. These are set up as lessons, so just follow along and type up your responses in a Google Doc that is shared with Doc V at vondracekm@eths202.org.
- Go to Part VI on the home page, which is Electricity & Magnetism. Try 13.4, Magnetic Force on a Particle. You may have to click to enable Adobe Flash Player, but this was working on my Chromebook. Click on the box on the right side to open the simulation, and follow the various questions that will require you to run the simulation. Respond to questions, and write out all responses, explanations, and descriptions that are asked for.
- Then try 13.7, Mass Spectrometer. Same deal, use the simulation of a mass spectrometer to determine isotopes of different elements. Type up responses in your Google Doc, and share both when finished.

For each of these, remember right-hand rule, mv^2/R = qvBsin(theta), and circular motion of the charged particles.

Feel free to watch any parts of Magnetic Storm again or if you were not in class (NOVA video on Earth's magnetic field we saw in class; have those questions in our packet, page 2).

Period 5: 
We are starting electricity, and the starting point is electric charge. EVERYTHING in electricity, and magnetism for that matter, starts with electric charge. You are probably most familiar with this from chemistry, in the form of protons and electrons, the positive and negative charges that make up every atom in your body!

Static electricity means stationary charge - charges that just sit on objects. Check out this video on the science of static charge. Take notes and answer the questions on this and the following two videos.

Static charge can build up in clouds, too! Check out a video on how lightning works: take notes and answer the questions you got in class on Wednesday. Here is a short, second video that compliments the first one.

Thanks, and enjoy the weekend!!!
