Physics B __________________________ Week One Assignment


Directions: This is a math review. All of the skills in this problem set will be used in physics. Print these pages. Show any necessary work on these pages. Part I: Solve for the variable.

12 = 3t 1 (10)t 2 2 1 12 = 3t + (10)t 2 2 1 12 = 3t (10)t 2 2 (20) 2 = v o 2 + 2(4)(10) 12 = (20) 2 = (5) 2 + 2(a)( 30) 10 + v f 150 = 3 2 200 4 r 2 P 100 = 4 (2) 2 1 1 1 = + f 2 6 1 1 1 = 10 do 5 100 = R= R= 1 1 + 4 3 1 4 + 3

1sin 60 o = n 2 sin 45 o n1 sin 30 o = 1.1sin 50 o 3 * 10 3 = 10 log 1 * 10 12

Part II: Rearrange the equation for the desired variable. Solve for t.

x = vt 1 x = at 2 2 1 x = vt + at 2 2 v f + vo x= t 2

Solve for a.
F=m a v f = vo + a t
2 v2 = vo +2ax f

Solve for f.
1 f = 2f = 1 1 1 = + f do di

Part III: Mental Math. Do these calculations without a calculator. Use a calculator to check your answers.
20 + 0 1 (1 0)(2)2 = 2 4 *1 3 + 2*1 2 = 0 0 (4 *1 3 )(2*1 2 ) 0 0 = 4 2 (1*1 ) 0 (9*1 9 )(1*10 6 ) 0 = (1*1 3 ) 0 1 2 3 + + = 2 3 4 2 (3) =

(4 *1 3 )(2*1 2 ) = 0 0

Part IV: Use trigonometric functions to solve for the missing sides of the right triangle.

Part V: Vector Introduction. Draw a scale map with a ruler for the following steps. Use 1cm=50m and draw each step as an arrow pointing in the direction heading. When you have finished drawing the individual steps, draw a straight line from start to finish and determine its length, according to the scale. Tracy walks 100m south, turns right and walks 200 west, turns right and walks 50m north, turns left and walks 100m west, and finally turns left and walks 150m south.

What is the total distance traveled? What is Tracys displacement from start to finish? How many seconds would you estimate Tracy spent walking? Part VI: Unit Conversions. Show each conversion using the factor labeling method. See the example below. Consult a textbook or the internet for conversion factors.

Ex. Convert 20min. to days. Convert 20mm to m. Convert 300km to m. Convert 10cm to Mm. Convert 130miles to km. Convert 2years to sec. Convert 320kg to lbs. Convert 200lbs to mg. Convert 200MW to mW. Convert 50ps to Gs. Convert 100m2 to cm2. Convert 30km/hr to m/s. Convert 65mi/hr to m/s. Convert 20m/s to km/hr. Convert 80 to rad.
