  1. My dad works with cardiothoracic surgeons! Although he sells the pacemakers and helps with the implants. So it's just my luck that our house is full of boxes of pacemakers... at least we're always prepared.
  2. ^ I second that Hannah.
  3. We make Science "Smashin'" with our TI-Calculators!

  5. Introduction The Speeding Lab Project was used for the purpose of seeing if cars were speeding above the speed limit on Cooper, 35 mph. Measuring the speed of the cars passing by, we measured out 20 meters and timed the cars on how long it took them to drive that distance start to finish. Procedure 1). Went on to Cooper Road, with materials 2). Measured out 20 meters along the road 3). With one person standing at either end of the 20 meters, with stopwatches, the cars were timed 4). After gathering a description of the car, someone wrote down the time of their travel. 5). Then we averaged the two speeds of the people’s times that were collected, then converting it to meters/second. \ Calculation Distance (20 Meters)/Time Traveled (Seconds) =Average Speed (Meters/Second) Conclusion In this lab, we were able to discover that on average each car driving down cooper road traveled about 6-10 meters per second. Although to gather a more detailed and engaging analysis, we would’ve measured over a longer distance making the information gathered more accurate, as well as then converting that information into more understandable units of information, for instance Miles/Hour. Regarding the speed limit on Cooper Road, there is absolutely no problem with drivers speeding over the limit. After making the conversion, the average speed of the cars we collected was well under 35mph, the speed limit. Depending upon the conditions of the road, drivers’ speeds would vary to the data we collected.
  6. I was in just about the same boat as you with chemistry, so you're definitely not alone. haha
  7. Hi! I'm Amelia, a junior at Irondequoit High School. I'm involved in a lot of different groups at the school, one of my favorites being Student Council, mainly for the reason that I love people. Meeting new people, and conversing with them is just about my favorite thing in the world as i believe you only can learn things from personal experience and those of others. Along with always trying new things, I am a very diverse and open-minded person. Traveling mixes in easily with these other interests as becoming accustomed to new cultures gives you the greatest sense of adventure you could ever experience. The purpose of me taking Physics is to learn solely about how Physics makes up everything. The thought is fascinating to think about, as we already know, everything in the world is so different. The topic came as a quick interest, and I'm looking forward to the class and what we study living up to that!
