Holiday Homework

I have changed my mind since class and decided not to have you watch videos or cover new material during the break.  The lectures are great, but they are more expansive than needed.  Here are Links to two videos of Walter Lewin -Famous MIT Lecturer - presenting on momentum.  They give a sense of MIT students and classrooms also.

The new assignment combines potential energy curves, and power.  The next material will be momentum and the lectures would give you a head start if you wanted to watch them.

I will check my PPS email over break occationally  if you have questions.
