Welcome to Grade 10 science with Mr. Gomez.

23 - 08 Last night's homework on Kinetic Energy calculations is posted here. Remember, your first assessment is this week. If you have questions in regard to your formative assessment with "Dropping Balls," see me before it is too late. Also, I am available after school most days if you need help with some of the math involved in the calculations.

30-08 Below is your reference for Criteria D and E grading. These are the updated versions for your editing and final work tonight!

01-09 Tonight's Speed problem. Make sure to express your thoughts in a sketch of your graph in your journal.

08-09 Significant Figures Enduring Understanding - all measurements have some degree of uncertainty. How great the uncertainty is depends on both the precision of the measuring equipment AND the skill of its operator.

EXAMPLES: 457 has 3 sig figs 1005 has 4 sig figs 0.02 has 1 sig fig 3.0 has 2 sig figs 130 has 2 or 3 sig figs (depending on how you would write it in scientific notation)

Multiplying - 2.61 X 1.2 = 3.1 Adding 4.123 + 26.46 = 30.58
