    Momentum Mini-Project



    There is so much physics in the winter Olympics I can barely contain myself!  Here's the general idea:
    1. Pick an event.
    2. Analyze the physics within the event, highlighting conservation of momentum or impulse changing momentum.
    3. Create something that demonstrates your knowledge.
    Next week we'll talk about more details, but that's general idea.  Start thinking about: 
    • Partners (solo or groups of 2)
    • Event (preferably of the winter olympics, though I'm open to ideas)
    • Product (video, website, poster, Prezi, etc, I'm open to ideas)
    More details to come next week!

    HW Friday, 2-7

    A & B periods

    • 2 MOP quizzes for momentum and impulse.  Post your success codes on Its Learning.
      • MC1
      • MC2
