Missed classes and homework: 1. If you miss a class it is your responsibility to see me about making up the class activities and homework. 2. If you miss a homework assignment or quiz it is your responsibility to make sure you get a copy of the assignment and hand in the homework or make up the quiz. 3. You can miss two classes without penalty. Additional classes missed will result in a deduction of 2% from the 20% In-class + quizzes portion of your grade. 4. It is your responsibility to keep current at my web page.

Energy and Matter Net Force – agent of change, producer of motion. Energy - measure of change. Energy is conserved. Mass is conserved. Mass/Energy is conserved. Energy and Mass are different manifestations of the same underlying quantity.

Conservation of Energy Richard Feynmann Nobel Laureate

V = 0 Net Force Force Picture: Newton’s Laws V increases because a net force acts down the incline in the direction of motion gravity incline
10
Kinetic energy = 0 Energy Picture V increases because gravitational potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy Stored or gravitational potential energy because of height above bottom of incline
11
Marble/Cup Experiment 1 half cup Marbles released at same height for two different angles of incline. books Trial 1Trial 2 X Measure how far the cup goes. If it tilts, measure to the red x. How do the distances compare? ruler
12
Questions What kind of energy does the marble have at the top of the incline before it is released? What kind of energy is it transformed to at the bottom of the incline just before it hits the cup? What happened to the energy the marble had at the bottom of the incline? Look at page 272 in your book. In the simple case of a constant force along the motion, work is just the force multiplied by the distance traveled. The marble exerts a force on the cup while they collide. The marble’s kinetic energy of motion is turned into work on the cup as they move together. The cup and marble come to a stop. The work generates heat energy through friction. All that is left in the end is heat in the table surface and cup – the worst form of energy because you can’t get it all back. The gravitational potential energy was transformed into heat. WORK IS TRANSFER OF ENERGY.
13
Marble/Cup Experiment 2 half cup Marbles released at different heights: one height twice the other. books Trial 1 Trial 2 X Measure how far the cup goes. If it tilts, measure to the red x. How do the distances compare? ruler
14
Questions Which marble has more gravitational potential energy? How does the gravitational potential energy depend on height? The greater the height the greater the gravitational potential energy. This is a linear relation or direct proportion. You can use this in pre algebra to teach the pattern of a linear or straight line graph.

Resistance = 3 units Effort = 1 unit 1 x 3 = 3 x 1 1 1 23 Effort x distance from fulcrum = Resistance x distance from fulcrum
17
Force on resistance = 3 units Force of effort = 1 unit Work = Force along motion times distanceWork of effort = 1 x small side of yellow triangle Work on resistance = 3 x small side of red triangle Work of effort = Work on resistance (energy is conserved) By similar triangles the small side of the yellow triangle is three times the small side of the red triangle.

Energy: Orbit of the Earth around the Sun p. 278 of your text: “No force is needed to keep it [the Earth] moving, but gravity forces its change of direction.” It depends on the meaning you have of moving. If moving means speed, then it is correct. If moving means path followed, then it isn’t correct.

Energy: Orbit of the Earth around the Sun p. 278 of your text: “It acquired its position and motion when it was formed.” Squeak Simulation

Matter: Atoms p. 282 of your text: “…scientists have come to believe electrons are more like bees buzzing around in a hive.” It’s more like bees “fuzzing” around. A two-layer scanning tunneling microscope (STM) image of the surface of a BSCCO (bismuth, strontium, calcium, copper and oxygen) high-temperature superconductor. Electron cloud. These simulated images are rotating so you can see what they look like in 3D. They are different energy states of an electron in hydrogen atom.
21
If the nucleus of an atom were about the size of a baseball, the electron clouds would be about the size of the Huston Astrodome. Everything is mostly empty space. Let the force be with you. Matter: Atoms

p. 284 of your text: “There are currently 109 known elements. We are up to element 118 now with a recent (June 2005) Livermore / Dubna discovery. The Livermore / Dubna collaboration has created elements 113, 114, 115, 116, and 118. Element 117 has not yet been created.
