Physics: Oprah on Newton's 3rd

5 min. A cool Newton's Cradle and liquid N demo in second half of video.

What Is Newton's Third Law of Motion?

Some people call it karma; others call it the Golden Rule. Oprah calls it her favorite law of physics and of life. Watch as Oprah and some Oprah's Lifeclass viewers take a field trip to Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry for an in-depth lesson on Newton's third law of motion.

Physics: Shooting Stuff

Click to Run

Determine the angle at which your launched object hits the target? • Can you now hit the target by launching it at an angle that is completely different from the original angle? • What angle should you launch a projectile to make it travel the farthest distance, with and without air resistance?

SOB - Milwaukee

1 ENTERS THE BALL TO THE 5 1 FOLLOWS THE PASS. 5 DRIBBLE HAND OFFS WITH THE 1. 4 SETS AN ON BALL SCREEN FOR THE 1 AS 1 IS COMING OFF THE ON BALL SCREEN. 3 AND 2 SET UP SCREENS FOR THE 5 TO CUT TO THE POST. IF THE POST IS COVERED, YOU MIGHT HAVE OPTION TO POP THE 4 (IF YOU HAVE A STRETCH 4) OR A SCREEN THE SCREENER OPTION TO BRING THE 2 TO THE TOP OF THE KEY.

Secondary Offense???

Possible Read: An option to our standard transition offense. If their are 3 Defenders back and the 5 hasn't gotten there yet. Dribble handoff to the corner man (by that time the 5 will be there for a ball screen)
Another option is run it out of normal set (but trailing big sets a ball screen after the hand-off to corner) After ball screen, big uses ball-side low post as a back screen.

4-4 Powerpoint for Monday Homework - 10/22/12

Ok - I tried the Powerpoint with Narration again. I thought that my drawings on the screen would be recorded as well, but they weren't. There will be some parts where I am talking about an arrow or something that doesn't show up on the screen. Just use your imagination, and you'll be fine. This is going to be so cool when I figure out the best technology to use. If anyone has a wireless mic available, I'd certainly love to borrow it.

Newton's First Law of Motion - Flip the Classroom.
Objectives:

Explain the relationship between the motion of an object and the net external force acting on it.
Determine the net external force on an object.
Calculate the force required to bring an object into equilibrium.

1. Begin with Khan Academy's Description of the 1st Law - Select Khan Academy Physics and Newton's First Law.

at http://www.hippocampus.org/Physics;jsessionid=00182F48489E84B6624F550BA9733F82?view=Media

2. Continue by linking to http://www.hippocampus.org/Physics;jsessionid=00182F48489E84B6624F550BA9733F82?view=Textbooks

and view the information about the 1st Law. You can stop when the video goes into the 2nd Law.

3. Video on Angel under Lessons --> Chapter 4 --> Newton's First Law Video
This can be downloaded to desktop so no connection needed.

4. Continue with some Readings about Newton's First Law
