1 CPE: semester 2 review Format/stuff to bring About 140 questions: all multiple choice on Scantron You will need a pencil #2 (bring a couple of them to be on a safe side) You may use a calculator Any equations you may need (GPE, KE, etc) will be provided for you In accordance with the school policy, there will be no electronic devices allowed during and after the test, so you might want to have something to do if you finish earlier How to prepare You will be given all of the formulas on a separate sheet with the periodic table: you should know how to use it Use this packet to determine what to review: go through this sheet and write definitions/answers next to things you do not know, then study this material Review your work done throughout the semester (test reflections, vocabulary and targets, bookquizzes, pretests, warm-up questions, class notes) A lot of these papers are available on the SchoolPointe (mine or Mr. Pichola's) and have answer keys with them You might want to look at your unit tests: you may do it individually (the test are not to leave the room) Read the textbook and practice using Practice Problems, Section Reviews and Chapter Reviews Use online resources: Compass Learning simulations (see our webpage under Online textbooks/tutorials/simulations) variety of webpages from science teachers in other schools variety of interactive online quizzes Do a little at a time: do not wait until the night before the exam and try to relearn it all The day before exams is the time for us to review together no formal review is planned, it is just an open time to ask questions and clarify unclear things (if you have not done any preparation on your own before that day, you are wasting the opportunity to ask specific questions that might clarify certain aspects for you you may work together and quiz each other in a small group, as long as the noise level does not get too high and you use CPE class time to prepare for the CPE test Sleep well the night before the exam (in fact, you need at least 9 h sleep every night) Eat breakfast, even if you usually do not Unit 08: forces and Newton's laws (Ch ) force net force balanced force unbalanced force friction static friction kinetic (sliding) friction rolling friction newton (N) gravity inertia weight free fall g terminal velocity projectile motion force pair Newton s 1st law Newton s 2nd law law of universal gravity Newton s 3rd law elastic collision inelastic collision vector resultant normal law of conservation of momentum Fnet=ma weight=fg=mg g=10 m/s 2
