Here are a few sample BFF problems for the exam.
- Patty accelerate from a stop at 10 m/s2. How quick is she going after 5.5 seconds?
- Joe the Snail goes 45 m in 9 minutes. What is his velocity in m/s?
- Tom has a .5 kg ball. If he throws is with an initial velocity of 5 m/s what is its momentum?
- Judith is sky diving. She weight 45kg (with a weight of 441.5N). When she first jumps, what is her acceleration?
- Judith keeps falling. Now she feels a 200 N drag from air resistance. What is her new accelereation?
- Tyson the skateboarding bulldog has a mass of 15kg. If he is travelling with a momentum of 200 kg*m/s and acceleration of 2 m/s2, then what is his velocity?
- Tyson goes down a hill on a sled (no friction). It is 20 meters high. What would be his velocity at the bottom of the hill?
- Suppose he coasts for 5 seconds once he reaches the bottom. How far would he travel in that time

Hello 8th graders,
If you have any questions about an exam topic, please post it here. I will review these each night and either answer your questions on the blog or address them in class tomorrow. Also, if you see a classmate’s question and know the answer, feel free to post it! This is the best way to make sure that you get the most out of our class review time so use it wisely.

Since I am quickly developing a reputation as a scrooge, I thought you all should watch this video. Be sure to listen to the calculation that John Malkovich makes relating to mass, velocity, and friction!

Since it is Saturday Night Live, you may have to watch it at home.

Come up with an invention that uses either Pascal’s Principle (think Pressure Equilibrium) or Bernoulli’s Principle (think big wing and Lift). Post your idea to the blog. Mr. K
