Workbook 07
Chapter 1: Falling Bodies
Objectives
Understand acceleration due to gravity
Be able to program in python. This holistic overview includes writing lines of code, creating variables, understand basic file structure, up to advanced data structures and simulation libraries.
Basics of integration using physics concepts
Calculating velocity given acceleration and initial velocity
Calculating position given given a graph
Define air resistance (the video is a very good explanation)
Understand free fall as a force concept
Prerequisites
Chapter 2: Kinematics
Objectives
Use kinematic equations
Understand the distance between distance vs displacement
Prerequisites
Chapter 3: Projectile Motion
Objectives
Understand projectile motion and independence of motion. Topics include topics thrown horizontally, basic escape velocity and newton's cannon, and objects launched at an angle.
Prerequisites
Chapter 4: Free Body Diagrams
Objectives
Be able to understand, interpret, and draw free body diagrams. Review all digital resources videos!
Prerequisites
Chapter 5: Inclined planes
Objectives
Understand how to calculate force, acceleration, and kinematic variables for objects going up or down inclines. Understand how friction effects the net Force in both x and y.
Prerequisites
Chapter 6: Momentum
Objectives
Define momentum
Understand collisions and conservation of momentum
Understand how momentum relates to the path of COM and how explosions effect that motion.
