The purpose of this blog is to help grade 12 physics students with problems and concerns in their course. Students should also reflect on the day's lesson - question, think, get curious!

scribe post - lindsay

This is Lindsay scribing for Thursday's class.

We first watched a video on electric fields. Here are the answers from the handout:

1. charge, potential, field
2. determine height above sea levels
3. field lines
4. hard
5. no
6. down
7. elevation; downward slope
8. E=-v/R
9. direction
10. 1/R2
11. inverse
12. no
13. constant height above sea lel
14. yes; electric fieldis perpindicular to the surface
15. 10 000
16. ionizes the air, electrons accelerate
17. ability to do work when electrons flow; volts
18. Ep=qV
19. charge in chemical form
20. charge, energy electrical field, foce, volt/potential difference

We got another work sheet. Here are the answers:
1. loss PE = gain KE
2. force; distance; W=Fd; increases; equal
3. potential; voltage
4. 1V
5. 12J
6. 5000 V
7. 5000V
8. 5000V
9. .005J
10. charge

We did a lab and hand that in ASAP

We also got more handouts and a worksheet for long weeked homework!

next scribe is...caroline
