PICS FROM LAST WEEK:

: PhyFl16P1SS55–Gold Standard

: PhyFl16P1SS56–A MUCH harder Gold Standard problem worked out as a class.

: PhyFl16P1SS57–Same problem with a few more details.

: PhyFl16P1SS58– It is ILLEGAL to have fractional units in a “cell” in unit analysis. In this case you would move the S^2 down to the denominator.

: PhyFl16P1SS59– same idea

: PhyFl16P1SS60– Circular motion will be with us the rest of the year and all through your science career. Might as well start to understand it now.

: PhyFl16P1SS61– We use “s” for arclength or any vector that is a combination of x, y, and z. “s” is a generalized vector. NOT capital S, that is used for a concept called Entropy which we will get to later.
