Review for unit 2

Note: you can use this if you want if it aids your study. As a disclaimer: There may be things on here not on the test, or things on the test not in here. These are just things that might be important.
Chapter 10 Waves
-Types: Longitudinal/compression, shear/transverse (what can they travel through?)
-Properties: Wavelength, frequency, crest, trough, amplitude
-What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength?
-Behaviors: reflection, refraction, diffraction, and interference (destructive and constructive)
-Standing waves
-Doppler effect
-Sound and light; frequency and amplitude
Chapter 11 The Properties of Light
-Wave nature of light (reflection, refraction, diffraction, and interference) (double slit)javascript:void(0)
-Be acquainted with figure 11.8 (electromagnetic spectrum)
-Particle nature of light (photoelectric effect)
-Wave energy is amplitude; particle energy is frequency
-Is light a wave or particle? Neither; exhibits properties of both.
-Figure 11.17 (wave-particle duality)
Chapter 12 Physical Properties of Matter and the Continuous Model
-States of matter
- Physical properties of states of matter
-Melting and Boiling Points (figure 13.9)

Chapter 13 The Molecular Model of Matter
-4 assumptions
-Physical states of matter (figure 13.5)

-if electrons were orbiting, they’d be radiating energy and falling into the nucleus
-also, why were they in specific orbits?
-Quantum Model
Chapter 15 Duality of Matter
-wavelength=Planck’s constant/momentum (momentum=mass x velocity)
-acts like wave when observed (sure of motion)
-acts like particle when unobserved (sure of position)
-Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle
Chapter 16 Quantum Model of the Atom
-Orbital: standing waves of probability
-Exclusion principle: Shell (1,2,3,etc) , Orbital (s,p,d,f) , Spin (up or down)
-Energy wells
Chapter 17 The Periodic Table
-Atomic theory (pg 200)
- families (columns), periods (rows)
-Periodic Trends (Atomic Size (figure 17.7), Ionization Energy (figure 17.8), Chemical Properties (valence electrons, etc))

Rhetorical Analysis

Argument of a friend: "You shouldn't do so much homework"
Why? "Because you should spend some time doing other things"
Like what? "Like playing in the snow, meditating, talking, making gingerbread houses, getting to know new people..." ok get the point. But I can't just not finish homework. "Why not?" I don't know. i just can't. "Well, why do you have so much?" I take too long. I have a lot of credits. And also, even my jobs have homework. "Well, why the heck did you choose to do all this stuff? Is it that important?" I don't know. Hey, when did this turn into an interrogation anyway? "Sorry." meh. "So, you ready to take a break?" I am taking a break; i'm talking to you. "really?" Ok, so maybe as I'm talking to you I'm recording it as a rhetorical analysis for an English blog entry even though we don't necessarily have to have one today, but my teacher said we might be able to have this one make up for one we've missed previously. "ha ha. you're lame"

...
I can't really argue with this. I guess his argument is affective.

Technical Assignment: audience awareness--those who have trouble relaxing

There was a study done for sleep help. The study was to find some of the best ways to relax. I can't remember number two and three, but number one (for this study anyway) was listening to relaxing music. Sometimes when I have a busy day it is hard for me to relax I can't even bring myself to sit down to listen to music. I try. I sit down to listen and it is just hard for to be able to sit there. I've come up with something different. I've started playing the guitar. It makes me sit there. In order for the music to come I actually have to sit there and play it. My fingers have to find the chords and I have to strum the rhythm. Then I feel the rhythm, strum the rhythm, and I start to slow down. To wind down. Maybe each has their own way to wind down. Everyone is different and so everyone should figure out the best way to do their own thing.

Free Write

I'm going to start typing and I'll try not to stop until I have a sufficient enough entry. I think it is probably a good idea; it gets you into the flow of writing. Sometimes it is difficult to begin. There is a blank screen in front of you with a cursor just blinking and blinking. Expecting you to do something with it. It kind of reminds me when I have a blank canvas in front of me. Every mark you put down will be judged or evaluated. It is hard to start. For canvas it is even harder because it costs so much. But even words. Once it is out. Once it is on paper. It is written down. People can look at you. People can examine you. It is a record that you are accountable for. Maybe that is why it is a little foreboding. I wish we could communicate clearly. Words are so muddled anyway. We don't think in words. We think in thoughts. If we thought in words then we would never have those times where we "can't think of the right word." In those instances we know the concept we are trying to find the right word to link to the meshy concept in our mind. Some people paint or sing or move or talk or write to try to communicate the concepts and the stuff that is going inside our minds, but it doesn't seem to ever be clear enough. It never seems to be completely accurate. One day perhaps. Maybe that's what "Adamic" language is. We'll all have to learn it, but it is just universally understood. Anyone can understand it. One person can speak it, and no matter what language you speak you'd be able to understand. Maybe that's what is happening in the scriptures when they hear things that couldn't be written down. It is this language that is universally understood and communicated, but they didn't know how to speak it yet. And maybe eventually we'll all be able to learn it. Things would get done so much more efficiently, and I can't imagine any arguments because people would understand where other people were coming from. A universal language. Where everything is clear.
