Hope you all are cat lovers. I've always been more of a dog person, but there was no video called "Dun Dysics for Dogs." So, what did you learn from the video? Be detailed in your response...."I learned about friction" isn't the kind of response we're striving for.
Thanks for a strong first week, everyone. Have a nice and restful long weekend, and I'll see you soon.
:) Mr. R
i learned that the arrangements of atoms in a substance determines whether it is a conductor or an insulator.
ReplyDeleteThat last one was from me
ReplyDeleteI learned that alike charges repel and opposite charges attract...a very interesting concept especially when it comes to relationships.
ReplyDeleteThis video was hilarious by the way.
I learned that µ is the coefficient of friction; therefore, the cat needs it to stay on the roof. But since he did not have it, he slipped off. I also learned that friction plays a role in transferring electrons.
ReplyDeletei learned that when a rubber ducky rubs up against a cat electrons will transfer onto the rubber from the fur, so the rubber ducky now has a net negative charge.
ReplyDeleteI learned that a cat's body allows an electric charge to travel though it easily, so it is called a conductor. An electric charge doesn't travel through rubber easily so it is called an insulator. The atoms of insulators and conductors are arranged differently.
ReplyDeleteI learned that the particular arrangement of electrons and protons in a molecule can determine the difficulty or easiness for electricity to transport throughout the body. When you rub different molecules together, some of these charges from one molecule get transferred to the other molecule, thus creating a net charge.
ReplyDeleteI learned electric charge does not travel easily through rubber. This is because rubber is an insulator.
ReplyDeleteI learned that objects can have a positive or negative charge. When objects rub against each other, they exchange charges to achieve a net charge.
ReplyDeleteFirst, i learned that opposite charges attract and same charges repel. Also, an electric charge will travel easily through a conductor while a charge will not travel easily through an insulator (rubber for example). Also, when an object has an equal amount of negative and positive charges, the object has a net charge of 0. When two objects are rubbed together, the charge can be transferred creating a net charge.
ReplyDeleteI learned that a specific arrangement of atoms in an object in fact resists the flow of electricity in what is known as an insulator.
ReplyDelete^ was me...
ReplyDeleteI learned that rubber is considered an insulator because its atoms are arranged so that it is really hard for an electric current to pass through it
ReplyDeleteI learned that when the rubber ducky is rubbed on the cat, the cat transfers electrons to the ducky, giving the rubber ducky a net negative charge while the cat has a net positive charge.
ReplyDeleteBased off the fact that atoms arrange into different pairs (++,+-,--)which depicts the outcome of whether an electric current can pass through, i came to the realization that the rubber that is wrapped around electrical wires is used because it is an insulator, causing the electrical currents that run through the wires unable to go through the rubber.
ReplyDeleteI learned that rubber has its atoms arranged so electricity has a diffucult time passsing through qualifying rubber as an insulator. Also I learned that cats for example are conductors due to the arrangment of thier atoms.
ReplyDeleteI learned that a cat's body allows electric charge to travel through it easily, due to its arrangement of atoms, making the cat a conductor. In contrast, a rubber ducky is an insulator since it is difficult for the electric charge to pass through the ducky's body.
ReplyDeleteI learned that rubber is an insulator, meaning that the rubber is not a good conductor energy because of the way its atoms are set up that makes it very difficult for atoms to go through.
ReplyDeleteI learned that the atoms in conductors are arranged to allow electricity to flow more easily through them than conductors. I also learned that atoms with like charges repel while opposite charges (-+) attract. I was happy that Electrostatics wasn't that scary after all!
ReplyDeleteI learned that most objects have equal positive and negative charges, which gives them a net charge of zero.
ReplyDeletei learned that rubber is and insulator, opposites attract, mu is the coefficient of friction, and black clothing attracts cat hair in proportion to the darkness of the fabric.
ReplyDeleteI learned that objects have positive and negative charges, and when objects rub off on each other they exchange charges (the opposites attract), most often leading to a net charge of 0.
ReplyDeletei learned that positive and negative charges attract. So a positive side of a magnet and a negative side will attract, whereas a negative side will repel another negative side
ReplyDeletethat was me by the way
ReplyDeletei learned that mu = the coeff of friction. i also learned that when there are 2 negative charges and 2 positive charges it's called a net charge and they make up a net charge of 0.
ReplyDeleteI learned that some substances, for example rubber, are insulators, which prevent the flow of electricity through an object. Also, the lovely cats taught me that when opposite charges (positive and negative charges) interact with one another a net charge is produced.
ReplyDelete^ thats me
ReplyDeleteI learned that opposite charges attract each other, and that charges that are the same repel each other. I also learned that certain substances (insulators) stop the flow of the electricity, while others (conductors) are easy for electricity to flow through.
ReplyDeleteI learned that positive and positive charges do not attract, they repel and negative and negative charges do not attract either, they repel too. Positive charges only attract to negative charges, and negative charges only attract to positive charges.
ReplyDeleteI learned that opposites attract (positive attracts to negative), and that atoms are the smallest unit of measurment. Also the same energy charge repel (positives repel) and (negatives repel). That is how magnets work.
ReplyDeleteI learned that opposites attract and I learned that black clothing attracts cat hair in direct proportion to the darkness of fabric. << very useful life tip.
ReplyDeleteI learned that when there are opposites, they attract and similar charges repel each other. Also I learned that rubber is an insulator so that is why the experiment with the cat's hair works like it does. I also learned that when two things are rubbed together, they transfer a net (specified) charge.
ReplyDeleteI learned that when you rub objects together electrons transfer from one to the other giving one of the objects a negative net charge.
