Traffic Light
This PLC is designed to get you thinking about what parts of class & material you have not fully
mastered, as well as all the ones you have mastered.
In the left column below, write down the major topics & concepts we have discussed so far (you
may need to add more rows). In the right-hand column, assess how well you think you have
mastered that topic: Green (Ill understand it for the rest of my life), Yellow (pretty much got
it, but need more practice), Red (anywhere from I get some parts of it to What class is this?).
I can draw force diagrams and apply N2 in
component form
I can apply N1 & N3 to solve conceptual
questions
I can use both momentum & energy to solve
problems
I feel comfortable using algebra to solve
problems and leaving numbers til the end
I can solve 1D & 2D constant acceleration
problems using equations
I can solve 1D & 2D constant acceleration
problems using graphs

For each traffic light that is Yellow or Red, determine what course of action you think will help
you master that topic and add it to your list. You might choose from things like: do more problems
from the textbook, ask my lab group to help me, go to a PLC or MESA tutor for help, or ask
Marcus.
