Started by Josh Young.
 * In the Tuesday, January 19th, 2016 phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift talked to us about how we are to document our lab reports, not to copy each others sentences, and we also dropped different types of balls to display the forces occurring in doing so.
 * Slope (Graph 1) = a = 2.636 ft/s^2
 * Looked at todays lab and attempted to figure out what they did in the report. Guy vandegrift explained what they did in conducting the experiment with the spit balls and rolling the ball down the hallway. Guy vandegrift then explained to us the graph and the logic behind the throwing of the spit balls at the rolling ball every second.
 * In the Tuesday, January 26th, 2016, phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift talked to us about the material that will be on the first test, reviewed the material, and also worked out some of the quiz problems.
 * In the Tuesday, February 2nd, 2016, phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift introduced the different labs that we will be conducting, assigned us to three different groups, and I was assigned to the group conducting the static forces lab. The static forces lab group got together and we set up the scales and were able to take a picture of them. After that Guy Vandegrift went over some of the next test problems.
 * On Tuesday, February 9th, 2016, phy-2400 lab was cancelled due to Guy Vandegrift not being able to be on campus all day.
 * In the Tuesday, February 16th, 2016, phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift assigned us to groups to work on the Test Review problems, we then took picutres and put names on them, we discussed the lab about Hooke's law and Young's modulus and drew a picture to help our understanding of it, and we then looked at lab pictures and sorted through them to set up a graph in excel.
 * In the Tuesday, February 23rd, 2016, phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift worked with us to improve the Hooke's Law and Young's Modulus lab (Overfit and measuring Delta L) and then he showed us how to integrate for the next test.
 * In the Tuesday, March 8th, 2016, phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift worked with us on the boyle's law lab in which we gathered data and gave them to him and he put them on a graph. After we finished that Guy Vandegrift then showed us the next quiz and showed us how to do some of the problems. To conclude the lab we went to a different room and Guy Vandegrift showed us a simple example involving moment of inertia.
 * In the Tuesday, March 15th, 2016, phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift showed us a movie about Isaac Newton and had to make up four questions to turn in from the movie.
 * In the Tuesday, March 22nd, 2016, phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift helped us with a lab and had us give him our measured data to calculate for the percent error from the lab to measure how accurate we were.
 * In the Tuesday, March 30th, 2016, phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift showed us a lab about sound and beats. Guy Vandegrift then played his viola for us to demonstrate the different music that can be produced by playing it. Guy then showed us a youtube video of a guy playing a viola without using is right hand which he thought was very interesting.
 * In the Tuesday, April 5th, 2016, phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift had us work through the echo & string quiz that he forgot to add to Test 4.
 * In the Tuesday, April 12th, 2016, phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift had us work out a problem with Venus, Earth, and the Sun on a piece of paper and then we turned it in to him.
 * In The Tuesday, April 19th, 2016, phy-2400 lab Guy Vandegrift had us work through five final exam eligible problems and then turn them into him before we left.
