Textbook Question
Chapter 16, Problem 16.28P
Why is the following situation impossible? An astronaut on the Moon is studying wave motion using the apparatus discussed in Example 16.3 and shown in Figure 16.12. He measures the time interval for pulses to travel along the horizontal wire. Assume the horizontal wire has a mass of 4.00 g and a length of 1.60 m and assume a 3.00-kg object is suspended from its extension around the pulley. The astronaut finds that a pulse requires 26.1 ms to traverse the length of the wire.

Watch the video of Cooper’s play, while conducting and documenting your observation using a chosen observation tool.
Case Study 1b - Cooper
Carol has asked you to support the babies and toddler’s room educators this week. She has requested that you complete an observation on Cooper, who is a 10-month-old toddler.
Carol wants to see how well you conduct an observation and is interested in how you manage to communicate in any observations made, using a strengths-based, non-judgemental, anti-biased approach, as this is a fundamental part of creating a supportive and respectful culture at Little Catalysts ELC.
