My Class Ongoing Activity


Physics Video Making Competition


Dear my fun and creative SMKBL's students,

From my experience all of you are very creative...it just that you don't have an opportunity to show your talent...Now's the time!!!

You can make a creative/ fun/ funny/ interesting video for any topic in Physics SPM syllabus. Here are the rules.

Rules:
1. Form a group consists of maximum 5 students
2. Discuss and create a 3-5 minutes video of physics using any software
3. Hand-in your application to me in a cd on or before
a) 30 April 2010 for FORM 5
b) 30 June 2010 for FORM 4

Reward:
As a reward you will enjoy this:

1. You will be given perfect score for Construct No. 5 in PEKA.
2. Depends on the quality of physics knowledge in your video, it will be upload in this blog
3. Prizes will be given to 1st, 2nd and 3rd Best Physics Video Of The Year

ALL THE BEST!!!


My Fun Physics Lesson (Form 4)

Form 4

12February 2010 (4Amanah)

Picture will be uploaded during this holiday...
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Happy CNY holiday!


Hands-on activity 2.3:
Analysing motion using a ticker timer

Aim: To determine displacement, average velocity and acceleration



11February 2010 (4Cekap)

Everybody is busy setting up the runway to study the linear motion.

4 Cekap!!! Let's get ready the track for our "F1 car" :)



After marking the 10 dot-spaced strips on the ticker tape, now is the time
to cut & paste the tape on the graph paper...

Yes!!! We're the 1st group to come out with our own tape chart!


Very long tape chart! Why?
The longer the distance between the dots, the faster the car move!
So our car break the record! Haha...


Job well done 4 Cekap!
Here's some extra info.
1. When ur runway is
very steep, ur car will move down very fast.
2. When ur car move very fast, the distance between the dots will be very far.
3. When the distance between the dots will be very far, your tape cart will be too long.
To solve this problem, that's why we can make 5 dot-spaced strip.
So, it doesn't mean that all the time we must make 10 dot-spaced.



10 February 2010 (4Setia)



Stephanie, Ian,..., Angeline in action!
Rewarded as the fastest group
to come out with the result today.



Desmond: "I will hold the ticker timer, otherwise it will accelerates
together with our "F1 car"



Desmond's F1 car! Haha....Any comment?


"Here i come....1,2,3!!!....accelerate!!!
Voon, don't forget to analyze and calculate my acceleration from the ticker tape, ok?"
Voon: "No worries turtle, Leroy had make ur tape chart..
Will calculate ur acceleration in no time :)"



a = (v - u)/t

u = initial velocity
v = final velocity
t* = time for the change of velocity
(*total time minus time for 1 strip)





26 Jan 2010


I reward this team as 4 Cekap most efficient team today... Why? Read followings:

Kuhan : Ling Siaw Xie, read carefully...do not make parallax error
Bertrand: Yea...parallax error will lead to inaccuracy!

David: Parallax error occur when the observer is careless...
Our Siaw Xie is always carefull :)
Jonathan
: I agree with you!

1.5 Analyzing Scientific Investigation

My dearest BL's students...

This is the basic subtopic for Physics SPM Paper 3.
Please be alert on how to state:

1. Inference : RV is depended on MV
2. Hypothesis: When MV increases, RV increases.





Today Salina's group (4Setia) awarded as "The most efficient group". Why?
They are able to finish the experiment in time. Keep it up girls!
Salina's group consists of Salina, Nur Hidayah, Farah Fadhillah & Azwanina.


Showing Timothy, Idris, ............ & Tay (4 Setia)conduct experiment to prove their hypothesis,
"The bigger the weight of an object, the bigger the pulling force"

18 Jan 2010

To determine the sensitivity of some measuring instruments




Lee (4 Amanah) and friends determine the accuracy of voltmeter.

Dear BL's student, try to answer this:

1. What is the use of anti-parallax mirror in the voltmeter/ammeter? Explain. (2 marks)
2. What is the use of rachet in micrometer screw gauge?
(Please send your answer by using `comment')



Esther, Senorita, Neetasha & Syazwanie (4 Amanah) together
determine the accuracy of measuring tape.
What is the accuracy of the measuring tape?




11Jan2010
Chapter 1 : 1.3 Understanding Scalar & Vector Quantity
Hands-On Activity 2.1 : Idea of distance & displacement, speed & velocity


Amelia, Felicity, Idris & Syed (4 Setia) as the time keeper
learn how to use the digital stopwatch


Mitchell (4Cekap) is at the starting point with timekeeper, Juliana.
This activity is to determine Mitchell's distance, displacement, speed & velocity

Video showing Ian (4Setia) jogging arou nd the lab.. :)

Dear F4 BL's...
By the end of this activity, you must know that vector quantity has magnitude & direction. Scalar has magnitude only but no direction.

Example :
Vector : Force, momentum, acceleration
Scalar : Energy, Power, Work








My Student Physics Task

My Student Physics Task (Form 5)

Form 5

10 February 2010

Good morning my dearest boys & girls,

This is an example question in SPM Paper 3, Section B.
The total marks for this question is 12 marks.


Please try and can email your answer to me.

c) describe how you would design an experiment to test your hypothesis using rheostat, constantan wire and other apparatus.

In your description, state clearly the following:
i) aim of the experiment
ii) variables in the experiment
iii) list of apparatus and materials
iv) arrangement of the apparatus

v) the procedure of the experiment, which includes the method of controlling the manipulated variable and the method of measuring the responding variable
vi) the way you tabulate the data
vii) the way you analyse the data (12 marks)


29 Jan 2010

Paper 3 (Section B)

Observe the diagram below and state your inference & hypothesis.
Then plan an investigation to test your hypothesis.
Include aim, variable, instrument & apparatus, apparatus arrangement, procedure, table & graph. (12 marks)







My Fun Physics Lesson (Form 5)



Form 5
Chapter 2: Electricity

2.1 Analysing Electric Fields and Charge Flow

Electric Field Pattern












Chapter 1: Waves

12Jan 2010
1.3 Understanding Refraction Of Waves

This 5Setia student purposely made a mistake when she complete the refraction of water wave diagram. Can you guess who is this :) and what is the mistake?

Please remember class, refraction of waves occur when
1. light travel through different optical densities medium
2. water wave travel through different depth of water
3. sound wave travel through different density medium






1.3
6 Jan 2010
1. Creating Longitudinal & Transverse Wave Using Slinky Spring.

Picture shows Shane and his classmates 5 Amanah
success in creating the two types of wave...

Remember class!!!
Longitudinal Wave is a type of wave formed when the particle of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of propagation of waves....transverse wave???19 Jan 2009













Video shows 5Setia's students lead by Lucas & Simon observing principle of superposition where constructive interference & destructive interference occur.

My dearest F5 students...do remember this,

There are 2 types of interference:

1. Constructive Interference =
phenomenon when
trough meets trough or
crest meets crest or
compression meets compression
or
rarefaction meet rarefaction



2. Destructive Interference =
phenomenon when trough meets crest or
compression meets rarefaction

***Please don't write Constructive WAVES....The word `WAVE' is rejected.
Use Constructive `INTERFERENCE'




My Exam Question Collection

States Mock Exam 2009

Dearest my smart and hardworking students,

Please feel free to download 2009 States Mock Exam Papers...
