Master the fundamentals of AP Physics 1 Unit 1: Kinematics with this clear, example-driven walkthrough of common stumbling blocks students face. We’ll break down how instantaneous velocity differs from average velocity, why “negative...

Pupil outcome: I can clearly describe how to measure speed and explain how I can do this accurately. Key learning points: - The instantaneous speed of an object is the speed at a particular moment in time. - For an accurate measurement a...

Calculus is a branch of mathematics that deals with very small changes. Calculus consists of two main segments—differential calculus and integral calculus. Differential calculus primarily deals with the rate of change of things, while...

We need to know the initial velocity of a projectile leaving the Nerd-A-Pult. That means we need the initial speed and the initial angle. This video shows exactly how I measured both.

A vehicle uniformly accelerates from rest to 3.0 x 10^1 km/hr in 9.25 seconds and 42 meters. Determine the average drag force acting on the vehicle.

Why do objects move in certain ways? Students will learn that English mathematician Isaac Newton figured out the basic laws that govern how objects move. The program explains the difference between speed, velocity and acceleration and...
