Important Announcements and Resources for Physics 111 Final Exam Preparation

Reminder for Physics 111 students: Final exam is scheduled on December 16, 2013, from 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM in GITC 1400. Practice exams are now available, and homework (HW 13, HW 14) is due on Reading Day. Ensure you complete homework before recitation to clarify doubts. Participate in the Physics Review Session on December 12 at your preferred time. Explore elective courses related to gravitation, biophysics, and optics if you are considering further studies. Don't forget to review oscillatory motion and its real-world applications.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Announcements • Solutions to Common 3 posted. • Final exam – ALL MULTIPLE CHOICE • Practice Exams Posted • HW 13, HW 14 DUE ON READING DAY • Make sure that you do HW problems BEFORE recitation so that you can ask about problems that give you difficulties

  2. Iclicker Question #0 What date/time would you like a Physics Review Session? • Thurs, Dec 12 (Reading Day) – 8:30AM • Thurs, Dec 12 (Reading Day) – 11AM • Thurs, Dec 12 (Reading Day) – 2 pm • Friday, Dec 13 – 11 am • Friday, Dec 13 – 2 pm FINAL EXAM: 12/16/2013 11:30 AM-02:00pm GITC 1400

  3. Life after Phys 111 • The course material of Phys 111 has given you a taste of a wide range of topics which are available to you as a student. • For those of you who have an interest in gravitation/ astronomy, I suggest the following electives: • Phys 320, 321 – Astronomy and Astrophysics I and II • Phys 322 – Observational Astronomy • For those of you interested in the biological or BME expects, I suggest the following electives: • Phys 350 – Biophysics I, Phys 451 - Biophysics II • For those of your interested in light, optics, and photonics, I suggest the following elective which I will be teaching Fall 2014 and Fall 2015: • OPSE 301 – Introduction to Optical Science and Engineering

  4. Why care about oscillatory motion? Application of Total force=0 and total torque= 0 tells you that you are in static equilibrium. Oscillatory motion is related to Stability of Equilibrium http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-zczJXSxnw Wind drives oscillations in Tacoma Narrows Bridge http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sn4t13uxJFQ Buildings in an earthquake… (start at 1:00) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1oceE_67MM This one didn’t survive….

  5. Iclicker Question #1 Where and when was the largest earthquake recorded since 1900? • Chile, 1960 • Alaska, 1964 • Northern Sumatra (2004) – subsequent Tsunami • Japan, 2011 • San Francisco, 1906

  6. Iclicker Question #1 Where and when was the largest earthquake recorded since 1900? • Chile, 1960 - 9.5 • Alaska, 1964 – 9.2 • Northern Sumatra (2004) – subsequent Tsunami – 9.1 • Japan, 2011 – 9.0 • San Francisco, 1906 – 7.8 Largest in New Jersey - 1783 – 5.3

  7. Oscillation of a mass on a spring

  8. Iclicker Question #2 Consider the plot of the position versus time for a particle in simple harmonic motion. When the particle is in position A, how would you describe the particles position and velocity? • The position and velocity are both positive • The position and velocity are both negative • The position is negative and the velocity is positive • The position is positive and the velocity is negative • The position is negative and the velocity is zero.

  9. Iclicker Question #3 Consider the plot of the position versus time for two different masses which are oscillating while attached to a spring (assume spring constant is fixed). Which of the following statements is true: • Particle A has a larger mass than particle B • Particle B has a larger mass than particle A • Both particles have the same mass • I can not answer right now due to the earthquake.
