Science 10 Block 2: January 31

Hi Everyone,

Today we reviewed kinematics terms and learned about kinetic energy. Did you know that SI stand for Le Système international d'unités? 

Here is the link to the notes today:

Here are the Plicker questions we did in class today:
In Vancouver, each block North-South is about 100 meters long. What is the displacement from 12th Avenue to 50th Avenue?

A3.8 km

B3.8 km [South] 

C5.0 km

D5.0 km [South]

You saw the flash from a lightning, and hear its thunder 5.0 seconds later. How far away from you did this thunder strike? (speed of sound is 340 m/s)

A3400 m

B1700 m

C1200 m

D500 m

A fully loaded concrete truck can be 20 tons or more in mass, while a typical car has a mass of around 2 tons. How much more kinetic energy does a fully loaded concrete tr...

A10 times

B100 times

C1000 times

D10000 times

A typical car has mass close to 2 tons, while the mass of a bicycle can be as little as 7 kilogram. How much more kinetic energy does a car have compared with the bicycle,...

A9 965J

B35 874 J

C99 650 J

D1 291 464 J

Enjoy! Don't forget to write your journal and the worksheet (which is due next Tuesday). We'll meet one more time on Friday before the weekend.

Science 10 Block 2: January 29

Hi Everyone,

Hope we all enjoyed the lesson today. It's certainly interesting to know that Isabel and Kaleb are interested in astronomy. Astronomers know a lot about our universe even though we have explored so little of it: human have not even been to the next planet yet!

Here is the link to the slides shown in class today:

We will be working on how to calculate kinetic energy (energy of motion) next class. See you on Wednesday!

Mr. Tung
