Ch. 3 Review Questions
Complete the following problems starting on p. 69: #20ab, 21abcd, 22abcd, 23abcd, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28ab, 29, 30, 31ab, 32abc, 33ab, 37abcd, and 38..
Write these up neatly IN YOUR OWN HANDWRITING. Printing a bunch of A.I. answers is not acceptable. Please keep the same numbering or I won't be able to grade it. You must show all your calculations clearly and box-in the final answer so I can find it.
Make sure you work all 34 questions, worth 34 points.

Greek Alphabet exercise
We use the Greek alphabet in Physics. Write-out the entire Greek alphabet, both capital letters and lower case letters. Make it look professional!. Include the letter’s “names”. All this can be found in the appendix of your book. Next, write out John 1:1-5 in the original Greek (5 verses total). Write a short essay explaining what is meant by the “Logos” as it is used in this passage.

Galileo's Inclined Plane lab
We reproduce Galileo's famous experiment using a modern cart and track set at 3 different angles.
Our goal is to estimate 'g', the acceleration due to gravity on planet Earth, and compare with the known value of 9.8 m/sec^2.
