Welcome back from Trips Week!

Whether you took advantage of the week to visit some colleges, or you (like me) just hung out in Pasadena taking care of other business, I hope you also had a chance to relax a little this week. You deserve it!

In our physics class we'll be picking up where we left off, with our study of two-dimensional projectile motion. You've got your vertical acceleration, with

Δy = viΔt + 1/2 a Δt2

...and you've got your horizontal constant velocity:

Δx = vx Δt

Those two equations are the key to solving just about every problem that we're working on this week. SO GOOD!

I'll see you in class...!

Getting started...!

It's been a pleasure getting to know you a little during these first weeks of class. I have a feeling we're going to have a very good semester in here!

Please be sure to let your folks know that we have Back-to-School Night on Thursday this week. It's always a pleasure for me to meet "your people." I hope I get a chance to see them.

In the meantime, I'll see you in class...

Welcome Back!

I'm so pleased to be working with you during this Fall semester of your Honors Physics class!

This is an amazing class with the fascinating subject of physics at its center. In here, you'll be challenging yourself to really understand how things move, why they move the way they do, and a dozen other things regarding the physical laws that describe our universe.

You're going to love it!

I'll see you in class...

Happy Summer!

If you're reading this, chances are that you're enrolled in my Honors Physics section for the Fall semester of 2025-2026. Welcome!

There's nothing you need to do at this time for our class. We'll be starting up in August, and we'll have plenty of time to get oriented before digging into our topic of study this year: physics!

It's amazing, and you're going to love it.

I'll see you in class on August 20th!
