Couldn't make it out of sectionals but ended the season with a win against a very good Wheaton Academy. Congratulations to all the teams on good matches and good luck to IMSA at state!

@jennifergrady3 Total energy is conserved not K. Some K goes to thermal but total E conserved. Linear momentum definitely conserved.

Students in AP Physics 1 calculated the speed and tension of flying pigs!

@BarnettDreyfuss I used those 25 years ago. Steam introduced to big tube. Small "T" in middle to hold corked thermometer. End of rods push against lever that looks like cm but after 10-1 reduction from lever is actually mm

@SJDJ @SteveMaier_ Looks like they are using the *left* hand rule?

I found myself stress-making lecture videos because I didn't want students or parents accusing me of not teaching by using someone else's videos.

Then it hit me. This problem can just be avoided with good communication about the learning process and everyone's role in it.
