Physics Is a Class that I Enjoy!

I got all 3s! How has your thinking changed? My thinking has changed to how energy is transferred and how to represent them, I tend to think on how I can solve the problem and not just stop working . What questions do you have now that you could've awnsered? I could've awnsered how to represent a change in amount of energy.

Blog Post #4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsjj_-5RlkI&feature=youtu.be Can you think of a time you were like a person stuck on an escalator? Yes, I can, there was a time in my 8th-grade algebra class where I didn't understand what we were learning, so I just gave up. Was there something once you tried and you were able to do it despite not believing you could? Yes, last week I did my math on KahnAcademy and I didn't think I could even get a 75% on an assignment, but I was persistent and achieved the goal. Why do we have a tendency to think down upon ourselves? We have a tendency to do this because at certain times we lack self- confidence and are afraid to take risks. How can you learn to recognize these moments where you get "stuck on an escalator" and what can you do to fight the tendency to rely on others to solve our problems? We could ask ourselves how this problem could be solved, and typically you can solve most problems with bei

Blog Post #3 Reflect on our model of energy so far. Our model of energy can be shown through a state diagram. This is confusing to understand at first, but it describes how energy is transferred and what is affecting the energy. Some of the things we thought we knew have been called in to question the last few classes. Is it really true? For me, I'd have to explain why I believe certain types of energy are being transferred into other energy sources, or if I have to explain why it is leaving my state diagram. Usually, I am correct in my predictions, but sometimes people can reason why they are correct, and I agree with them. What evidence exists to help us understand what is going on? Simple observations can be made, but sometimes we have to make predictions. For example, we can know that kinetic energy is being transferred into sound energy because we can hear the gears grinding together in the wind-up toy. Have any of the activities given you evidence to supp
