P = mv
What is the relationship between P and v? What about KE and m?
2. Communicate observations
2. Communicate observations
Two (2) formal lab reports. You will hand two printed copies
Copy 1. I will grade one copy for technical content.
Copy 2. Graded by an English Department staff member for
writing skills.
Labs are 40% of the grade.
Formal lab: (100 technical + 100 English)×2 labs = 400 points.
Informal lab: 50 technical×8 labs = 400 points.
English grading is 10 % of your final grade.
Write your formal lab early, make an appointment with the Writing
Center, edit it, edit it, edit it...

Significant Digits
Digits that carry meaning contributing to its measurement resolution
ME360 will follow rules for significant digits
Be careful with computer generated outputs
Microsoft Excel tables are prone to having excessive significant digits!
