Monday, Jan 26, 2009 - Blocks 1 and 3

Gave a second quiz on torques - this time a bar problem.

Asked what student's remembered from the Hewitt video.

Zapped the law of gravitation to derive Kepler's laws. Went over several examples of close is fast.

Did not have time to do Orbit of Mercury so instead, for fun, showed parts of 3rd Rock From the Sun - The Physics of Being Dick. Block 1 liked it. Block 3 not so much so instead I started going over the Kepler's Laws Worksheet.
