Physical Science Tues March 30

Comic Strip development site

Your assignment is to create a comic strip using www.toondoo.com

You will need to create an account and password...don't forget these! Make sure both partners can access the site. You will get classtime Tuesday and Wednesday to work on these, plus you can work on them during break. We will show these to the class the week we come back.

The purpose of your cartoon is to show us something clever or academic about the electromagnetic spectrum. This should be a fun assignment, but it should also be appropriate.

potential energy video assignment

Online Example of Gravitational or Elastic Potential Energy being converted to Kinetic

Using the internet, please find a video that intentionally or unintentionally shows the relationship between the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy.

Your video should:
1. Be clean/appropriate for class use.
2. Be short in length.
3. Be fun, if possible.

Along with a link to the video, please send along a brief summary/sentence describing what the source of potential energy is and what the resulting kinetic energy is.

Email your link and brief summary to me: fkieser@sja1890.org
