19. April - 25. April
Section outline
-
We talked more about conditionals:
- It’s high time we started another round of presentations
- I’d rather not take the elevator. I'd rather take the stairs. I'd rather you didn't smoke here.
- Suppose/supposing you won the lottery. Would you still study physics? Suppose the internet had never been invented. What would we be doing right now?
We had two presentations:
- Lukáš (horse latitudes and doldrums)
- Šímon (warp drive)
We watched three short videos and explained them to each other (The Brazil Nut Effect, Pencil Punctured Bag, Theremin's Spooky Music.)
We watched a short video on Bernoulli's Principle. Students had to write a paragraph describing what they saw and why it happened and they emailed it to me.
