Dr. Kidd’s Laws of Phyics • Law 1: • Anything that Can Happen, Will Happen • Law 2: • Everything is Lazy • No other laws needed, & #2 is pretty redundant as it is
First Unit: Thermo • ?’s I want you to answer tomorrow • But may start now… • What is temperature? • Do things change size with temperature? • Why? • What is Heat? Hint: Water vs. Aluminum • What is a state of matter? • What are the Four States of matter? • How is heat transferred? • What are the Five Fundamental Forces?
End for Today • Assignment: • Read Chapter 17 for tomorrow • Should be an initial skim • Tomorrow • 1st HMWK assignment • Go over basic problem solving • Physics I & Chapter 17 • Calculus in Physics
