No Effect
Something in my life that I think should affect something but doesn't is weight on floating object. I always thought that the weight mattered if an object can float or not. The lighter the object the easier it will float, the heavier the object toe easier it will sink. But of course that's wrong. I think that weight should affect the object capability on whether or not it should float because a rock is heavy and that sinks but a penny is light and that also sinks. I know that weight does have some affect on floating object but that's not the main point. The reason why object float is because through buoyant, and the dense on the fluid.

Simple Harmonic Motion
Simple Harmonic Motion
How you would know if something is a Simple Harmonic Moition (SHM) is that the object will be hung from some type of string and will be swinging back and forth or it can also be swinging up or down. It's like a pendulum the pendulum swings back and forth.
Examples of SHM that I see everyday (well mostly)
A swing from a park
The swing goes back and forth whenever your apply force to it
Metronomes to keep a steady beat for musicians, the ones people use to play piano.
And finally one last example I see of Simple Harmonic Motion is magic. Magicians use it to hypnotize people in some other way or they use it in there little magic schemes.

Electricity Generator
Electricity Generator
The generator I'm interested in is wind power. The reason why I chose that generator is because it's very cheap and it's simple. What I mean about simple is that it doesn't use no chemicals to turn a turbine and it's easy to build. All it takes is wind to turn the turbine. The other generator's use some type of chemical (except solar power) to turn their turbine, that usually effects the earth and us since those chemicals aren't good for the environment. But here is the drawback, it gives an annoying noise that is not useful to use in any way. However luckily for the builders, the wind powers are usually build far away from houses. The wind powers can be build in a very deserted area so that it wont be annoying anyone. Fun fact: The wind power "supposedly" hurts flying birds which in my opinion I don't think it does.

Circuit Diagram
Circuit Diagram
Today in class we learned many symbols for circuit diagrams. The reason why we use these symbols for our circuit diagrams is because to make life easier. Also because so that our drawings will be precise and clear once you know the symbols meanings. Using symbols saves time because their is no need to draw an actual light bulb all you can do is a circle and inside the circle will be an X. On a circuit diagram we can see all the symbols used in it example: we can see the electric supplier known as the battery because we know that its just 2 lines (one is long and one is short) and it connects through wires. Some things the symbols make it harder to do is when the connections between other light bulbs and electric connections. Even though if you had a "real life" circuit generator where you had the generator and the wires e.t.c you can see how everything works. In a diagram you can't really
see the relationships between other things (electric connections, light bulbs e.t.c)
Something new that would help me use symbols for is building a house. Using symbols would help the construction workers locate where to apply the wood/bricks. It would just help them knowing where everything goes (windows, doors, electricity, e.t.c)

Pretzel Circuit
Pretzel Circuit
What we did in the Pretzel circuit was that we made a series circuit and a parallel circuit. In the series circuit we had 2 light bulbs and a battery source. The battery source gave energy to 30A electrons. We also had 2 voltages. In the series circuits the voltages always split and the current stays the same meaning that the 30A stayed the same and the 2 had to split. In the parallel circuit we did the same thing having 30 electrons and 2 voltages. On the parallel circuit the voltage stays the same and the electrons (circuits) had to be split. Meaning that each circuit would have 15A.
