Physics WAVES and more Videos- Fun Friday

Fold  a sheet of note paper in half, make one column for "connections to physics I've learned"  and another for 'totally new to me physics'.

Then watch the following videos.... if you want... you can play them twice.
This assignment is due at the end of class on 3/24/2017 (unless you have an excused absence, and then, please complete it before you return).  Aim for 10 connections to previous physics and 5 new to me ideas TOTAL for all Videos combined.

VIDEO #1: Your Microwave to find the speed of light

VIDEO 2: CrAzY PoOL VoRtEx

VIDEO 3: Stacked Ball Drop (and supernova explosions)
