4/20 physics update and Homework due 4/27

Hi folks,

Today we took a look at the concept of resonance.  Resonance is basically the way waves carry energy from one object to another object.  We took a look a several videos for examples of resonance and also had fun resonating a balloon using a virtual piano.  Very cool.  Lastly, we made a 6 pendulum pendulum where the swings of some pendulums caused others to swing as well.

Homework for next week is to:

Read Chapter 26 in Conceptual Physics.  Pages 390 - 400
Do Review questions #'s 1- 20 (Seems like a lot but they should all be quick.)
