Day 156

We discussed section 11-3 notes on heat engines.  We watched brief 2-minute videos on internal and external combustion engines, and then watched a 2-minute video on energy conversions via roller coasters.  I then demonstrated how a pendulum is very similar to a roller coaster in terms of potential and kinetic energy.  We completed worksheet 11-13 together, followed by worksheet 11-11, before students were finally assigned worksheet 11-9 to be completed within their groups before the end of class.

News article #32 is due on Monday, and the chapter 11 test will be on Tuesday, May 5th.
