08:31:47 Query Principles of Physics and General College Physics: Summarize your solution to Problem 1.19 (1.80 m + 142.5 cm + 5.34 `micro m to appropriate # of significant figures)
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> 3.76 confidence assessment: 3

08:46:29 ** 1.80 m has three significant figures (leading zeros don't count, neither to trailing zeros unless there is a decimal point; however zeros which are listed after the decimal point are significant; that's the only way we have of distinguishing, say, 1.80 meter (read to the nearest .01 m, i.e., nearest cm) and 1.000 meter (read to the nearest millimeter). Therefore nothing smaller than .01 m can be distinguished. 142.5 cm is 1.425 m, good to within .001 m. 5.34 * `micro m means 5.34 * 10^-6 m, or .00000534 m, accurate to within .00000001 m. When these are added you get 3.22500534 m; however the 1.80 m is not resolved beyond .01 m so the result is 3.23 m. Remaining figures are meaningless, since the 1.80 m itself could be off by as much as .01 m. **

RESPONSE --> The problem in the book states 5.34*10^5 micro meters and that translate to me as 534000*10^-6 which is .534. self critique assessment: 2

08:47:01 ** THE FOLLOWING CORRECT SOLUTION WAS GIVEN BY A STUDENT: The components of vectors A (2.6km in the y direction) and B (4.0km in the x direction) are known. We find the components of vector C(of length 3.1km) by using the sin and cos functions. }Cx was 3.1 km * cos(45 deg) = 2.19. Adding the x component of the second vector, 4.0, we get 6.19km. Cy was 2.19 and i added the 2.6 km y displacement of the first vector to get 4.79. So Rx = 6.19 km and Ry = 4.79 km. To get vector R, i used the pythagorean theorem to get the magnitude of vector R, which was sqrt( (6.29 km)^2 + (4.79 km)^2 ) = 7.3 km. The angle is theta = arctan(Ry / Rx) = arctan(4.79 / 6.19) = 37.7 degrees. **

19:27:13 Intro Prob 6 given init vel, accel, `dt find final vel, dist If initial velocity is v0, acceleration is a and time interval is `dt, then in symbols what are the final velocity vf and the displacement `ds?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> ds=change in velocity vf= double the ds
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
19:27:50 **You would use accel. and `dt to find `dv: a * `dt = `dv. Adding `dv to initial vel. vo you get final vel. Then average initial vel. and final vel. to get ave. vel.: (v0 + vf) / 2 = ave. vel. You would then multiply ave. vel. and `dt together to get the distance. For example if a = 3 m/s^2, `dt = 5 s and v0 = 3 m/s: 3 m/s^2 * 5 s = 15 m/s = `dv 15 m/s + 3 m/s = 18 m/s = fin. vel. (18 m/s + 3 m/s) / 2 = 10.5 m/s = vAve 10.5 m/s * 5 s = 52.5 m = dist. In more abbreviated form: a * `dt = `dv v0 + `dv = vf (vf + v0) /2 = vAve vAve * `dt = `ds so `ds = (vf + v0) / 2 * `dt. **

20:51:57 What is the displacement `ds associated with uniform acceleration from velocity v0 to velocity vf in clock time `dt?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> Ds = vAve * Dt confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
20:53:49 ** Since accel is uniform vAve = (v0 + vf) / 2. Thus displacement is `ds = vAve * `dt = (v0 + vf) / 2 * `dt, which is the first equation of uniformly accelerated motion. **
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> Ok i see how we get the vAve by addin v0adding it to vf and dividing by 2 and multiplying by our change in position. self critique assessment: 3

21:00:14 Describe the flow diagram we obtain for the situation in which we know v0, vf and `dt.
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> Well we know that we can calculate average velocity, and if we have the distance traveled we can calculate the amount of time that it took to travel the distance confidence assessment: 3

21:02:52 ** The first level in the diagram would contain `dt, v0 and vf. Then v0 and vf would connect to `dv in the second level. The second level would also contain vAve, connected from vf in the first level to v0 in the first level. The third level would contain an a, connected to `dv in the second level and `dt in the first level. The third level would also contain `ds, connected to vAve in the fourth level and `dt in the first level. **
