Today’s assignment from textbook:

p. 110-112: 20, 37, 38, 39, 41 and 51.

What you need to know for tomorrow’s quiz:

• Use of first five equations in your equation sheet
• Draw force diagrams
• Evaluate forces to determine balanced/unbalanced net force
• Special circumstances/types of problems
  • Solve problems with pulleys (pulleys change direction of tension, not magnitude)
  • Solve problems with ramps
• Solve problems with forces at angles
  • Break down forces into x and y components
