Corona Diary Week 2 Distance Learning

1) Make sure to check your grade in Sapphire Tuesday - let me know if there's a mistake ASAP because the grades for marking period 3 will be finalized Wednesday.

2) I'll be combining the week into one page. You can do the work at your own pace.

3) Honors: to go for the Deeper Understanding, try the two optional DU problems. CP: try the Wow problem if you want to go for an A.

4) Your problems will have blanks instead of numbers and a suggested range. Pick your own numbers and solve. I expect that everyone will have different numbers.

5) For credit, do the problems in your notebook, take a pic and email it to me. MAKE SURE IT IS CLEAR AND LEGIBLE. I will let you know if it's correct.

This week is a review for you of Conservation of Energy. Mr. Damm recorded a tutorial in case you forgot what you're doing. Problems to try this week are linked below.

Try them in your notebook, take a pic and email them to me.

According to the physics you learned, what does this really show about the Tesla Cybertruck versus the Ford F-150?

The Playlist

Corona Week 2 Playlist (but see below; two songs are not on Spotify.)

Song	Artist	Year	Comments
Josie	Steely Dan	1977
Jingo	Candido	1995
Heartbreaker	Led Zeppelin	1969
Disarm	Smashing Pumpkins	1993
Nature's Way	Spirit	1970
The Magic Number	De La Soul	1989	De La Soul sampled the old 1970s Schoolhouse Rock song for this one. Sadly, this one is not on Spotify. They sampled so many things on their albums that their current record label isn't willing to try to get the rights to put it on streaming services. You can find it on youtube - it's worth it.
Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World	Israel Kamakawiwo'ole	1993
Let My Love Open the Door	Pete Townshend	1980
Love Theme from Spartacus	Yusef Lateef	1961	Beautiful jazz.
Spinning Wheel	Blood, Sweat & Tears	1969
Supersonic	J.J. Fad	1988
A Taste of Honey	Herb Alpert's Tijuana Brass	1965	Reminds me of being dragged around department stores back when I was very young. I swear they all played Herb Alpert all the time.
I Would Die 4 U	Prince	1984	Creepiest playlist coincidence of my career so far: this song played in three of my four classes the day Prince died.
We Gotta Get You a Woman	Todd Rundgren	1970
Games Without Frontiers	Peter Gabriel	1980	World politics from one of the strangest and most intersting people in rock & roll.
Comfortably Numb	Pink Floyd	1979
Rushing	Moby	1999	I'll never forget when I first heard Moby's album "Play". Mr. B was playing it at the after graduation party in the pool area back in the early 2000s. I bought the CD as soon as I could.
Hold Me	Fleetwood Mac	1982
Reelin' in the Years	Steely Dan	1972
Ring Ring Ring	De La Soul	1991	This song cracks me up. They must have had hundreds of wanna-be rappers sending them tapes, hoping to become famous. The song starts with an actual message left on their answering machine from some person in Philly. Sadly, this one is not on Spotify. They sampled so many things on their albums that their current record label isn't willing to try to get the rights to put it on streaming services. You can find it on youtube - it's worth it.
