This video explains about coefficient, constant, variable and exponents. Useful for introductions to the topic and/or extension work. 

This video explains how to find factors.

• Identify when forces are balanced vs unbalanced.
• Determine the sum of forces (net force) on an object with more than one force on it.
• Predict the motion of an object with zero net force.
• Predict the direction of motion given a combination of forces.

Use the dynamic worksheet to practice simplifying expressions with fractional exponents, rewriting them as radicals.

Determining how fast something will be traveling upon impact when it is released from a given height. 

Three activities which illustrate the law of exponents.

This is a simple video which describes how indices problems are solved using simplified laws.

In this chapter, we’ll use vectors to expand our understanding of forces and motion into two dimensions. Most real-world physics problems (such as with the game of pool pictured here) are, after all, either two- or three-dimensional problems and physics is most useful when applied to real physical scenarios. We start by learning the practical skills of graphically adding and subtracting vectors (by using drawings) and analytically (with math). Once we’re able to work with two-dimensional vectors, we apply these skills to problems of projectile motion, inclined planes, and harmonic motion.
