Vista Murrieta High School

(The only reason I have a one week window to complete this assignment, is for students who are absent because once the window closes, students can no longer submit the assignment. For that reason, you will always have a one week window to submit each Quest assignment.)

2. Study for the quiz on Physics Math (this will include all topics discussed before we began the uniform motion lab--from "Physics Math Part 1" through "How to plot a scientific graph") 

    --see Checklist to make sure you have included everything

(STOP AT 10 MIN) 

 

 

 

Step 1: Click this link: http://www.physicsclassroom.com/mop/module.cfm (you will need to download the adobe shockwave player)

Step 3: Enter school code: vmhs (use lowercase letters)

Step 5: Enter First Name: your first name (use lowercase letters)

Step 6: Enter Last name: your last name (use lowercase letters)

If you are having to restart the sublevel more than just a couple of times, STOP and come in for help. Do not spend too much time on these!!

Then, complete: Combining vectors graphically worksheet. The link for this is under the video.

 9/15(A)

 9/21(A-LS)

9/22(B) 

 1. Adding Vectors that are at angles

 

1. Finish the Quest assignment: Vectors Part I

2. Complete Vectors & Projectiles sublevel 5: Vector Components (I put the link to these modules on the Extra Physics Help tab)

 

 

 

2. Pass back success codes to students who turned them in so they can obtain their condensed codes for HW

 

 

PREPARE FOR TEST NEXT CLASS: Look over Vector Quest assignment solutions, review the sublevels again, and review your note-taking guides.
2. Decrypt your sublevel success codes to get condensed codes.

Any time you complete more than one sublevel for a particular module, I will ask you to obtain your condensed code (it condenses all of them into one, which makes it quicker for me to verify your success). Here is how you do that:

Step 1: Click on the usual link to go to the Module Start Page (but don't click Start).

Step 2: In the left margin, click on the link that says "Decrypt"

Step 3: Follow the instructions to obtain your condensed code.

 

3. On a single piece of paper, write your information as follows:

      First Name     Last Name

 

     Kinematic Concepts Module                  Vectors & Projectiles Module

 

     (Yes, even though you obtained a condensed code I still want you to list your success codes. Please be very careful when recording your codes. There have been numerous times in the past where students could not read their own writing and neither could I. I have to be able to verify your codes to give you credit! In fact, for future reference you may want to "print screen" when your success code is displayed after you complete a sublevel and paste it onto a word document rather than writing them by hand and possibly recording incorrectly or illegibly. Likewise, you may want to "print screen" when you obtain your condensed code.)
