100th Day of School — It’s about Learning

Ask a Tech Teacher

Have students work in groups to come up with one hundred ways to represent the number “100” Some examples are: 50+50 102-2 400/4 5*20 4(20+5) the square root of 100 + 90 Teachers may design math challenges and games that involve the number 100 to reinforce mathematical concepts in a fun and interactive way.

Fluids for AP Physics 1: buoyant force demonstration and/or lab

Jacobs Physics

Even though I might be doing this demonstration during the new AP Physics 1 fluids unit, it's still a force problem. The buoyant force on a submerged object is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. This is written mathematically by the equation Fb = (density of fluid)(volume submerged)( g ). Physics works.

Three Fun Physics Experiments You Can Do with Kids

STEM Education Guide

When more children hear the word, “physics,” there may be a disassociation with the word, fun. However, the principles of physics, like science, are applied in our everyday living. Physics for children can be playful, entertaining, and budget-friendly. These physics experiments will show you how. What is Physics?

On the Nature of Time

Stephen Wolfram

But while this may be a useful mathematical description, it’s not telling us anything about what time in a sense “intrinsically is”. Yes, the microscopic laws of physics may be reversible (and indeed if our system is simple—and computationally reducible—enough of this reversibility may “shine through”).
