Bonjour bonjour le classe!

Tres class today, tres class. First off, it's nice to see our teacher decide to actually attend class today, i'm Inclined to know if she'll be present for tomorrow's class as well!

Did you catch that? Did the colour isolation give it away?

OUI, OUI! Our class today is all about Inclinations!! (probably not the correct term...)
So I guess i'm INCLINED to tell you the details of today's emotional INCLINE of a class, so let's begin! Don't worry, I don't have any material left for incline puns, but goodness, if i did, it'd be a CLOTHESLINE! (i hope you got that) Okay enough PUNCHLINES (that was another), I think I'm out of LINE now (another), let's begin INCLINES!

Lemme break it down numerically:

1. Corrected Transparency Worksheet
Solutions:
1. vector resolution
2. F is a single vector acting in a certain direction. Fv is a vertical component of F. Fh is a horizontal component of F. Fv and Fh are perpendicular to each other.
3. /
Fh <------/
4. F^2=Fh^2+Fv^2
5. Fv will increase, Fh will decrease
6. Both sets are components of a single vector. Fh is perpendicular to Fv and F(parallel) is perpendicular to F(perpendicular)
7. Gravitational force of Earth acting on the object. W is directed downwards towards the centre of the Earth.
8. F(parallel) will decrease and F(parallel) will increase
9. F(parallel)=Wcos(theta)
10. Fn

2. An experiment was held observing the different factors that can overcome friction on an incline plane. Factors such as the degree in which it is orientated towards the horizontal table, the different weights the object is attatched to, the weight of the object itself, and the way the object is placed upon the incline such as on its broad side, or it's narrow side, or if it's placed on a sheet of sand paper.

3. A worksheet was also given out which invlolved Newton's second law, "the force equals the mass multiplied by the acceleration"

4. Bell rings!

That is the summary of the class. Merci merci for ignoring my post cause i know no one's gonna read this. Anyway the moment you've all been waiting for, the next scribe shall be nelsa! Till next time my le classe!

Au revoir!
