Papers

Hey. Sorry everyone that I didnt post yesterday! Im here now, no need to worry!! Just kidding!! Anyways, on with the lesson. Today in my class, everyone got 2 different sheets of paper. One of them was one where it had some paragraphs on it and you read them. But let me get deeper than that. The page with the paragraphs was about force and motion. We learned that the unit of measurement for force is newtons names after Isacc Newton. The other sheet of paper had pictures of boxes on it. 3 boxes to be persise. We learned how to measure the force being put on the box. Like 30N to the left and 10N to the left. The way you do that problem is by adding 30 + 10 which equals to 40 so your answer would be 40N. You added because they were going the same way. If you have a problem with the numbers going opposite ( right and left) then you subtract. For example: if you have 20N going left and 10N going right you would subtract 10 from 20 and you get 10N. Its alot easier to understand when you hear the lesson from Ms. Isbell. Well that was our day!!
