I've changed my mind about Physics. I used to hate it so much. Now I don't. I also used to be horrendously bad at it, now I get A's on the tests. We've done a lot of work in the class. So far, we've covered motion in 1 and 2 dimensions, forces, energy, momentum, collisions, rotational motion, sound, electricity, and magnetism. Although the topics we've covered have gotten harder as the year progresses, I've enjoyed the class more.

• Spring Lab This is a lab I did with Robert that investigated springs. This lab was a bit unusual because we didn't have to write an analysis or conclusion. But it still shows some good work.

• Uber Cliff Problem This is a problem Mr. Ellis gave us that was supposed to be hard. It dealt with motion and headwinds. We got extra-credit if we wrote the description in Spanish. I love my story. Uber Problem doesn't really mean wicked hard. Uber is german for over. I don't know why he called it that. The diagram is missing because it was hand drawn. I am proud of my work on this one.

• Video Lab on 2D Motion This is a lab on 2D motion. We had to record types of motion and analyze the path of the projectile using LoggerPro, a software we often use in the class. We then had to write about our results.

• Bungee Lab This was a lab we did involving bungees, nalgenes, and energy. Although the write up took forever, the actual lab was really fun. It shows some good work. This is in typical Mr. Ellis lab style.

• Centripetal Acceleration Lab This lab was horrid. It took forever to do. However, I believe this is some of the finest work I've produced in this class. It was about spinning motion.
