Day 98

What crazy weather. Where is the snow? We had a two-hour delay today, so I lost the L-2 section when 1st period was dropped. The L-1 section did their pendulum lab in 35 minutes. I was very impressed. The OWS sections all covered lesson 7-5 on pascal's principle, where a force on a fluid is spread throughout the entire fluid, allowing hydraulic devices to work. We took some notes, went over homework, and had a challenge to blow up a long yellow bag before I did. My record was 7 seconds, and the fastest in the classes took 28 seconds. The trick was to use Bernoulli's principle and create low pressure in front of the bag by blowing hard but standing back. Pretty neat trick.

Dr. Awesome's video is coming soon. I realized I had the wrong cable at school today. I will work on it later tonight. I hope you all have a great weekend!

Sweet justice.
