The quiz will be fairly short; there will be 2 or 3 questions. One will be on conservation of energy. Another will probably be on vertical motion under the influence of gravity. There will be some graphing. When you create graphs it is important to: 1) label your axes, 2) scale your axes, and 3) indicate units next to the label. For example, y (meters) could be the label (with units) for the vertical axis of a graph of y vs time. t (sec) could be the label for the horizontal axis. Scale your axes means put some numbers and tic marks (not too many, just 2 or 3 per axis is usually just right). Typically, the size of your graphs should be about 3x3 inches.
