This weeks blog in very cool colors

What new ideas did we learn? This week we did many new ideas because we started a new unit. We finished our test this week on dynamics which was pretty easy. We started a new unit that has to do with different forces acting on objects and other stuff. I think this unit is going to be pretty straight forward. We learned new things like the earth is pushing down every object down an we or the strength that we have is holding us up from falling to the ground. We also did some examples that showed that there is sometimes no force that keeps the object even. For example when we throw the ball up since it is already up it just travels down on the way down so the earths force is the only thing that acts on it. There was also examples were we used newtons to measure the different forces. When the two forces were exerting equal amount of forces the number of newtons that are made is always going to be zero. If the forces are exerting different amounts of force it is not going to be zero in will be whatever number.

How did you learn these ideas? We learned these many ideas by him teaching us about the many topics and also by doing many examples and may different tests. Like for the finding if the forces were equal or not we did some examples together then we did so other examples by ourselves to see if we get the idea that is being taught. For the experiment with throwing the basketball up and draw a force diagram you would need to analyze the forces and draw it correctly to get it well. You would also need to put all the labels in or it wouldn't be good.

How would this relate to real life? It would relate to real life because you would need to find the force of many things to see if the many things would have equal forces or different forces. It would help you if you were interested in this type of science which is a really interesting topic. It would really help you if you are a scientist that is studying in the same field that I wrote about.
