Inquiry- Rich Physics Problems http://groups.physics.umn.edu/physed/Research/CRP/on-lineArchive/ola.html
four problems from the site... ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Let’s do THIS ONE. Whole problem: ,[object Object]
Information only ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Illustration.
Numbers and Pictures.
Compare: Pace and Distance  ,[object Object],[object Object]
Numbers and Pictures.
Compare: Pace and Distance  ,[object Object],[object Object]
THIS IS THE HARDEST PART FOR ME! ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
velocity (aka “pace”) = d / t  ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
TIME
TIME ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
THAT WAS NOT EASY! ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Let’s Review Our Progress So Far:
Back to TIME:  ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
UNIT LABELS. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
How many seconds in five minutes?
This picture- with TIME...
TIME ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
NOW- The Jump to ALGEBRA... ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
MORE Algebra: a solution! ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Did you see what wasn’t right? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Algebra is not the problem... ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
What does the answer mean? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
meters and seconds ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Solving for Q- the long way... ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
We can start over and do the same thing the easy way. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Where do we meet? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
900 meters + (3 m/s x Q s)  =  (4 m/s x Qs) ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
We meet at a distance of 3600 m from my house.
 
Now try to solve this one: ,[object Object],[object Object]
Illustration: Bus Stop Physics... ,[object Object]
The Necessary Information ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
[object Object]
YOUR ASSIGNED PRACTICE PROBLEM.  ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
 
Contact me with questions... ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
