Solving a word problem to find average velocity and speed of an object in one-dimension.
In this unit you will apply your understanding of the components of motion in one dimension using linear equations. This will help you to solve problems about motion in one direction and equip you to understand how these concepts apply to everyday life.
There are three equations for linear motion with constant acceleration. They can be used to calculate, and therefore predict, the outcome of motion when three out of the four variables are known.
The Earth behaves like a giant bar magnet and as such there is a magnetic field present around it. The Earth’s magnetic field is thought to be caused by flowing liquid metals in the outer core of the planet which causes electric currents and a magnetic field.
The idea of the electric field, how it's useful, and explains how the electric field is defined.
In this video we’re going to discover how to factorise quadratics that don’t have 1 as the coefficient of the x-squared term. These are called non-monic quadratics. We can do it by trial and error and just spotting the factors, but this takes a lot of trial an error. Luckily there is a different method we can use instead, which we will looks at in this video.
Why do astronauts appear weightless despite being near the Earth?
How to solve for the horizontal displacement when the projectile starts with a horizontal initial velocity. We also explain common mistakes people make when doing horizontally launched projectile problems.
Determining how fast something will be traveling upon impact when it is released from a given height.
