week 10

Due to the existence of a fire underneath me rear end, I was very focused and productive especially when friday came because i had a microscopic part of homework 7 to complete so i completed it and turned it in before the end of the day. all i have to worry about now is what my prodictivity and focus levels will be like for the coming week in order to get portfolios 3&4 completed.

week 9

This week i actually made some progress seeing as how i've started a homework and i'm working through it but i'm slightly confused in terms on finding the average velocity and velocity in general so.... be prepared mr. McNeill for questions and lots of 'em!

week eight was bad because i made little to no progress but this week i SHALL make progress... or my mommy will keelhaul me.

week 7, i believe?

Unlike last week, I experienced little progress. my growth has been stunted due to my non-existent viewing of portfolio 2.

week 5 blog.. on the 1st day of week 6

Last week I learned or remembered that resultant= displacement and I kind of re-learned how to use trigonometric identities. The new thing that I learned was to use trigonometry to find displacement and the angle of the vectors w.r.t. the origin.

week 4 blog

so I have internet and I completed my part of my group's gallery project but i have to still add it to the site. which will happen tomorrow!
from what i watched yesterday and the homework which i tried to finish i'm confused as to what the term "resultant" means. in homework 2 for those 4-5 ending questions it seemed(to me) to somtimes mean distance, or displacement. oh and i couldn't find the trig video so i'm confused about that so... i have questions for class :D

week 3 blog... kinda

this really late blog is due to lack of internet and not telling mcneill about my lack of internet. sadly during that week i didn't learn much because i procrastinated in terms of videos watched and homework completed. basically my knowledge is a recap of week 2's blog

2nd week of class blog... that got delayed... :D

During the second week of my favorite class :3 I learned how to state and describe distance, displacement, and position in more detail. Specifically when a vector of going in a direction that involves not only 1 axis' direction but a combination of two. it was very exciting... except when i got the arrows confused but... back to what i learned. If the displacement is 10 m x hat + 5 m y hat then through my new found knowledge i could fine the distance, displacement, and postion. i could do it now to demonstrate but ... i won't.

August 24- 28

Last week although my progress with the videos was limited I learned the difference between vectors and scalars. Vectors have magnitude with direction while scalars simply have magnitude. Magnitude, I learned, was a measure of force. I also learned the vocabulary associated with Kinematics, such as, displacement and direction.
