The last electromagnetism lab# 3.10 is due Monday as well

Week 3
Magnetism lab 3.3 due Tuesday March 25. Magnetism lab 3.9 due Weds Magnetism lab 3.10 due Friday 3/28

UTexas question #4 is tricky. There are 1000 2 mm 2 in a square meter. I'll make that one extra credit.
= Friday March 14: = Hand in stapled __homework__ to sub.

All __3 labs__ are due Monday in class (or use a lab pass & scrap for each one)

March 20-24 PS #3.8 ElectroMagnetic Devices:

Test on Magnetism FRIDAY Mar 23. Study your notes and practice questions.Web review at
http://regentsphysics.wikispaces.com/March+Regents+Notes+%26+Study+Materials

a. Read pages 642 - 647. Answer "Mastering Concepts" p.664 #33,35, 36, 37. Stamp Tues 3/13. 25 pts
==== b. Use this diagram to answer the worksheet attached:  Stamp Weds 3/14 (25 pts) ====

c.Read about "Electromagnetism" pages 648-658 (almost none of this materials is on the NYS Regents but it is key to understanding how real world technology (motors, generators etc) actually work).

d. Assessment: p. 665 #59, 60, 61, 62 (These are typical, Regents-style questions) 25 pts

e. Last week's COMPUTER SIMULATION is worth 25 pts. Go to []: click on RUN NOW to start the simulation. Assignment: a. Build and draw on looseleaf a circuit with three light bulbs in series, controled by a switch, with an ammeter and a volter showing the voltage and current across one resistor. The lights must work and it must not be on fire. Show your teacher and I'll sign off on your drawing in the computer lab with a stamp. b. Repeat, only now make all three light bulbs parallel, each controlled individually by their own switch. Get a second stamp.

= Any labs we do this week will be due on Friday (half-day) for pd 9 and Monday for pd 2 =

Weds 2/29:
In class we will do a UTexas online called Math Foundations Test. If you dont finish it in class, finish it at home no later than Weds night (same day). You get 100 as a homework score for trying your best....the actual score is not your grade. We are doing it in all the Physics classes this year to try to diagnose students' math abilities as it relates to Physics.

**Due Thursday 3/1 Lab 3.4 & 3.5: Series Circuits, Parallel Circuits**
Wednesday March 7 ** PS #3.5 Circuits II ** Use the same handout found online to read about current and do problems:

a> Read p.391 - 393. Do all parts of question #18 on p. 393. (Stamp Monday) b> Read p. 393-394: On Heat and Power: Do problms 19-21 on p 394 (Stamp Tuesday) c> Read p. 395-398. Do problems #25-26 on p. 398 (second stamp Tuesday)) d> Do problems 5,6 and __7 a&b only __ on p. 400.  e> COMPUTER SIMULATION (20 pts ) Save to hand in next week.  Go to []: click on RUN NOW to start the simulation.  Assignment:  a. Build and draw on looseleaf a circuit with three light bulbs in series, controled by a switch, with an ammeter and a volter showing the voltage and current across one resistor. The lights must work and it must not be on fire. Show your teacher and I'll sign off on your drawing in the computer lab with a stamp.  b.
