As you learn more about physics, you will have a great understanding how a skateboard work.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03543675729599189846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5499881221022842054.post-13519090826340640612010-02-04T08:35:57.466-06:002010-02-04T08:35:57.466-06:00Nicely done, Paxton!

The ability to go back and modify the models used to describe various phenomena is the strength of a scientific understanding. You have demonstrated that with your skateboard project very nicely!! Keep up your good scientific work.Gonzohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13907156621630518166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5499881221022842054.post-84287201138710034432010-02-04T07:48:29.459-06:002010-02-04T07:48:29.459-06:00You did a thorough job with your presentation!

The blog itself is very interesting and the answer is well supportd.

I learned something from it!<br /><br />I wish my physics students would show as much originality!Marc Reifhttp://sites.google.com/fysicsfoolnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5499881221022842054.post-57460158331878399562010-02-03T19:53:25.323-06:002010-02-03T19:53:25.323-06:00Paxton I wouldn't say that you were proven wro...Paxton I wouldn't say that you were proven wrong in your physics project at all! <br />I'll rather say that new information allowed you to discover that there were other factors that should be taken in consideration in order to calculate the acceleration.<br />Great job, that's how real science is done!dgendehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02179741683558253638noreply@blogger.com
