Resonnance. Check the u-tube video about Tacoma bridge.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Level I for 10th graders. You need Algebra I
Level II for 11th graders. You need Algebra II and trig.
materials : notebook (take notes ! ), internet connection (and a computer, of course)
graph papers, protractor, RULER, TI 83 or TI 84, ruler in cm and your enthusiasm ..
students: Some of the pages are best seen using FIREFOX.
Physics guide from Trevor. Use it  for independent study
See books below too. I am still working on the pages, please be patient.
LEVEL I  
Main idea: Use graphs to derive relationsip between physical quantities		 LEVEL II
Main idea: Work in 2D using Trig. and vectors
