Physics 12 Supplemental Material

To the Physics 12 class,

If you want to get a bit ahead we will be studying Circular Motion and gravitation.

Here's a video to get you guys started
Centripetal Force & Acceleration

Also here's a great page for a bunch of practice problems and additional reading
Physics Classroom - Circular Motion

Be sure to watch/read both websites. Remember, regardless of how much time we are out and what the official policies are, you guys still have a responsibility to learn this stuff and I expect you to learn it.
