Forrest Gump

~X.T.~ /in



We're gonna watch Forrest Gump on Saturday, absolutely wonderful movie, can't believe so many people never watched before, get the ABM room booked!!

UPDATE: WE WON'T BE WATCHING FORREST GUMP ON SATURDAY, PN YAP CAN'T MAKE IT(i think). FIND ANOTHER DAY!!! MUST WATCH!!!


See, life IS like a box of chocolates, never know what you're gonna get...
(ok, chocolate nowadays have labels on them, so you know EXACTLY what you're gonna get.)

I think this is a better computed graph. If you are using the same values as I am, you can use it.

Add Maths Project

My Add maths project is available at weiquan1991.spaces.live.com. You can compare and contrast the answers to check your project. Some noted errors in the photostat copy given to us are as follows:

1. pg13. gravity is not a controlled variable, and you are about to prove it is not 10
2. pg25. procedure8 method3, use the value derived at procedure7(d)
3. pg26. typo error. Period of the pendulum on the surface of the moon =T moon
4. pg27. 2(b) in water is shorter than in air, further explanations required, given in my blog.
5. pg28. 2nd paragraph under compare and contrast is wrong. Refer to my blog.

Other suggestions
1. I don't think that method 1 and 2 for procedure8 is appropriate.
2. Further explorations 2(a) should be given better explanation.
3. Your value G should be smaller than 9.807ms2, due to air resistance. However, if you have a higher value than 9.807ms, you have to give correct explanations. The photostatted version does not have one. I don't have it either.

Sorry for the poor quality of the pictures in my blog. If you have difficulty reading, download it and enlarge with paint or photoshop.
If you detect any errors in my project do report to me. Thank you.

NEW BLOG- KEENEN, LEE YOUNG, JAMES, IAN



This is our new blog: There's no pussy here, just a dose that'll make you wish you were born a woman.

Inspired by Keenen, we've decided to create a blog that aims to publish free thoughts, random events, personal experiences, lame jokes, subjective opinions... etc. shortly and concisely. This will gonna be a community blog since we (will) have many authors.

"Yes, because shorter entries are easier to read."

Friday Money Collection

All 5s5,

Please be informed that the collection of money on Friday will be handled ONLY by James Ng or authorized person if James is absent.

Please take note.

Thank you for your hard work for the past few days and our total sales is remarkable. Keep up your good work. Continue to push those books to students!

Add maths project

Hi, class. I checked up that after applying air resistance, gravity should be lower than the given value.

To prove that, using the formula given, sorry I can t type it ...
But you will derive that T= k(L), where k is the constant 4 PI square over gravity.

Taking an example, T square = 0.201 and L= 5, you will resolve that k =0.0402 and Gravity, G=982.05

If the above example is treated to be the norm, means no air resistance, after adding air resistance, time taken to swing will increase, and therefore a larger value of T.
Taking the above example T square= 0.201 and adding 0.005 as a result of air resistance, the new T becomes 0.206

Now, when T square= 0.206, L=5, you will resolve that k = 0.0412 and Gravity, G= 958.21

That proves that with air resistance, gravity is lower. So the value read should be lower than the actual not higher.


Hope somebody can check this out with our physics teacher. If this is true than we probably cant copy the project given to us.

Add Maths Project Graph

Here are the graphs for your project. :


Graph of Period, T against Square Root of L



Graph of Period Square against Length, L

足迹收费日期

各位同学:

下个星期每人将收到10 本 《足迹》。我相信你们也把它推销得蛮好,所以在此我想提一提收费方式。

财政部将会在每天休息后的那一节收你们所受到的钱,请注意!

其次,当卖完了 10 本 《足迹》,你也可向叶老师再拿 《足迹》。 但是,请注意, 当你在拿货,请一定要通知我。 这确保我的销售记录与叶老师的纪录不会有差别。

敬请注意!
