  1. 4C Physics Welcome

  2. About Me Ms. Rosebery studied astronomy and physics at UofT, and is married to a physics professor at Mac and has four kids.

  3. About Me This semester I am teaching: • Grade 11 University Physics (SPH3U) • Grade 10 Science Academic (SNC2D) • This class I have 4th lunch and am available in the morning after 8 am and in the afternoon until 3:30 pm.

  4. About You Please complete the Student Information Sheet with your: • Name • Markbook code name (a made-up name I can use when posting marks; it cannot be rude or the name of anyone in this class) • Home phone number

  5. About You Please also add your parent(s)/guardian(s): • Name(s) and • Email address(es) • Work/cell phone number(s) if you know them. If you don’t, I can look them up.

  6. About You Please also indicate if you have: • any allergies or medical concerns • an IEP I should be getting the paperwork from administration/guidance, but sometimes it goes missing. Let me know if I should be expecting it.

  7. About You Please also let me know: • if you took 2D (Academic) or 2P (Applied) • what mark you got in Grade 10 Science • who your Grade 10 Science teacher was • which other Senior Science courses you’ve taken (if any)

  8. About You Please also let me know: • if you took 2D (Academic) or 2P (Applied) • what mark you got in Grade 10 Science • who your Grade 10 Science teacher was • which other Senior Science courses you’ve taken (if any) • what college programs interest you

  9. Why Physics Physics is the science of matter and energy and their interactions, i.e. how things work.

  10. Why Physics Since people trained in figuring out how things work have analytical problem-solving skills that can be applied to many fields, people with training in physics are highly valued in the job market.

  12. Why Physics Physics is also the foundation of the natural sciences.

  14. Why Physics Lastly – and most importantly – physics can be fun.

  15. What Physics: Course Strands • Motion and its Applications • Mechanical Systems • Energy Transformations • Electricity and Magnetism • Hydraulic and Pneumatic Systems

  16. Motion and its Applications: Big Ideas • All motion involves a change in the position of an object over time. • Motion can be described using mathematical relationships. • Many technologies that utilize the principles of motion have societal and environmental implications.

  17. Mechanical Systems: Big Ideas • Mechanical systems use force to do work. • The operation of mechanical systems can be described using mathematical relationships. • Friction is a force that influences the design, use, and effectiveness of mechanical systems. • Mechanical systems can be used to address social and environmental challenges.

  18. Energy Transformations: Big Ideas • Energy can be transformed from one type to another. • Systems that involve energy transformations are never 100% efficient. • Although technological applications that involve energy transformations can affect society and the environment in positive ways, they can also have negative effects, and therefore must be used responsibly.

  19. Electricity and Magnetism: Big Ideas • Relationships between electricity and magnetism are predictable. • Electricity and magnetism have many technological applications. • Technological applications that use electricity and magnetism can affect society and the environment in positive and negative ways.

  20. Hydraulic and Pneumatic Systems: Big Ideas • Fluids under pressure can be used to do work. • Fluids under pressure have predictable properties and many technological applications. • The uses of hydraulic and pneumatic systems can have social and economic consequences.

  21. How Physics Assessment and Evaluation: Overall Mark Breakdown: • Term Mark 70% • Culminating Task 10% • Final Exam 20%

  22. How Physics Term Mark (70%): • Tests/Quizzes 30% • Labs/Assignments 40%

  23. How Physics Mark Updates: Marks will be posted (under your Markbook code name) on a regular basis (usually after unit tests and before mark reports).

  24. How Physics Missed Assignments: All assignments must be submitted before solutions are posted and/or marked papers are returned. This can be as soon as the day after the assignment is due. Assignments submitted after the due date but before this cut-off will be marked at the teacher’s convenience. A mark of No Mark will be assigned until then.

  25. How Physics Missed Assignments: If you do not submit a given assignment before solutions are posted and/or marked papers are returned, you must consult with the teacher about possible alternative assignments that must be completed separately and on your own time. A mark of Zero will be assigned until the alternative assignment is complete (at which point it becomes a No Mark until it can be marked).

  26. General Policies Missed Tests: Make-up tests will be written outside class time on either the first day the student returns to school or at a time convenient to the teacher. The make-up test may not be identical to the original test but will be similar in structure and content.

  27. A Warning Since Physics is a cumulative subject (each unit builds upon the last), you really do not want to fallbehind!

  28. How Physics • Textbook: Physics 12: College Preparation Please write your name in your textbook!!!!!
