calculators, ipads, know vocab words and five step process for problems.

Tuesday Hw read chapter 11

Read 11.1 and 11.2 for Wednesday

Test tomorrow on engineering design process, experimentation and scientific method and all vocabulary

Monday

If you need to make something up such as the ORQ or a test, please see me on Monday to get it done. Tuesday is too late for make ups.

homework for Monday night

12/1/2014 Complete the first two steps of the Engineering Design Process for the mousetrap vehicle. Review Mr. H's Blog with the problem on it. Also include the science that needs to be considered and how that applies the vehicle. Step one is to design the process. Identify the problem from the objective of the technology problem. What are you trying to achieve? What are the design constraints? Identify how Newton’s 3 Laws of motion apply to the vehicle. What contributes to the net force (Fnet = MA) How does the mass affect the acceleration? What is better, a fast acceleration over a short period of time, or a slow acceleration over a longer period of time? Step two Gather Background information...
