🎓✨ Celebrating an incredible IB journey today. After two years of hard work and perseverance, seeing our students smile during the hooding ceremony is truly special. So proud of them and all they’ve accomplished! 💙#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
⛵💧 Float your boat with physics!
Students designed aluminum foil barges and tested buoyancy by loading them with pennies to see how density and displaced water keep objects afloat. Tiny boats, big engineering energy! #IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
💨⚡ Feeling the pressure!
Students compressed air and measured how pressure changes with volume, revealing the inverse relationship behind Boyle’s Law. Small squeeze, big effect! 📊✨#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
❄️✨ Keeping it cool with physics!
Students measured how energy melts ice and calculated the latent heat of fusion using calorimetry. No temperature change, just pure energy transfer! ⚡📊#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
💪⚡ Ready for Paper 2!
Students reviewed, fueled up, and got ready for tomorrow’s IB Physics exam. We loved having visitors from Trinity join us and the great energy all around! 📊✨#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🧠⚡ Review mode: activated!
Students prepped for the IB Physics Paper 1 exam with a fast-paced review game and some good food. Great energy, great teamwork, and ready to shine tomorrow! 💪📊#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🎶🌊 Standing waves, standing strong!
Students explored harmonics and resonance, tuning frequencies to create nodes and antinodes and uncover how wavelength and frequency shape motion. When physics lines up, it really sings! ⚡🎶#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🔊✨ Sounding out physics!
Students used resonance and tuning forks to measure the speed of sound, finding the perfect pitch where waves line up. When physics resonates, it really hits the right note! 🎶📏#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🌈✨ Making waves with light!
Students explored diffraction and interference, watching waves overlap to create bright and dark patterns. From slits to screens, physics put on a light show! ⚡📊#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🕵️♂️⚡ Shedding light on the mystery!
Students used Snell’s Law to track how light bends and calculate the index of refraction to identify an unknown substance. Science solved the case! 💡🔍 #IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🍫📉 Decay never tasted so sweet!
Students used M&Ms to model radioactive decay and applied the decay law to track how “atoms” disappear over time. Physics you can count on! ☢️⚡#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🌊✨ Making waves, one pulse at a time!
Students used slinkies to explore longitudinal and transverse waves while measuring speed, frequency, and wavelength. When physics moves, it really travels! ⚡📏#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLiB@RandyBelcherBHS
🌀⚙️ Physics in perfect rhythm!
Students timed oscillations and explored how mass and spring constant affect motion in a simple harmonic oscillator. When physics clicks, it really springs to life! ⏱️✨#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
💥🚗 Momentum matters!
Students investigated explosions, elastic collisions, and perfectly inelastic collisions to test whether total system momentum is conserved. From crash to calculation, physics wins! ⚡📊#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🚀⚡ Impulse in action!
Students tested how force applied over time changes momentum and verified the impulse-momentum theorem. Space-level physics today! 💥📊#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🧲⚡ From spin to spark! Students built electric generators and tested how magnet arrangement and rotor speed affect voltage. Faraday’s Law brought it all to life! 💡🔄#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
Boing! 🐸✨
Students investigated how a compressed spring toy transforms stored elastic energy into motion and height. Hooke’s Law in action! ⚙️💨#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🧲⚡ Induction in action!
Students explored Faraday’s Law to see how moving magnets generate electric current and power bulbs. Physics that really sparks! 💡🔄#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🚀🌍 Orbiting into physics!
Students calculated the orbital radius, speed, and energy of GPS satellites to see how physics keeps navigation systems running 24/7. From Newton to navigation! 🚀⚡#IBnIBPhysics#IBnLDBELLib@RandyBelcherBHS
🐷🌀 When pigs fly… we calculate centripetal force!
Students measured radius, period, and tension to determine the force keeping our flying pig in circular motion. Physics makes it possible! ⚙️📏@IBnIBPhysics @IBnLDBELLib @RandyBelcherBHS
