What is Physics?
![Page 3: Welcome ACP - KNIGHTS Honors Physics Mrs. Lowe. What is Physics?](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103023/56649dfe5503460f94ae65ba/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Physics is the science of matter, energy, space, and time.
• It explains matter as combinations of particles which interact through the 4 major forces.

Or you happen to actually like physics – like me?!
• Degree in Cell and Molecular Biology
• Minor in Chemistry
• Physics was part of my curriculum
• I was paid to raise fruit flies for genetic research.

We are a team – please don’t be afraid to help me out – on occasion I do make mistakes.
This is not about me – it’s about YOU. I graduated from High School, College, I’m here to help you.
Please don’t be offended if I get your name wrong – I can’t remember my own kids names!

Attendance• Your grade will reflect your attendance –
especially in a laboratory class.• It is YOUR responsibility to get missed work.
![Page 39: Welcome ACP - KNIGHTS Honors Physics Mrs. Lowe. What is Physics?](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103023/56649dfe5503460f94ae65ba/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Cell Phones/Electronics• Not to be used during class
• Use during an exam or lab will result in a zero
• Only bottled water is permitted in class

Consequences
You ALWAYS have a choice –
What you CAN’T do is choose your consequences

Classroom Procedures
Students have the right to learn and
Teachers have the right to teach.
Therefore, all rules will ensure
that those rights are recognized.
