Motion Diagrams
Scholars work through three activities building motion diagrams as part of a series exploring dimensional kinematics. Each activity has six descriptions requiring application of velocity vectors, acceleration vectors, and challenge...
Physics Classroom
Name That Motion
Pupils apply their understanding of motion to 11 practice problems as part of a series on dimensional kinematics. They view a dot diagram animation and read descriptions to identify which match. As a bonus, the interactive offers...
Physics Classroom
Newton's Second Law
Physics formulas provide more interest than simple math equations thanks to an informative installment from the series on Newton's laws of motion. The formulas guide pupils' thinking about how varying a quantity affects the rest of the...
Physics Classroom
Recognizing Forces
A common complaint among physics scholars studying Newton's laws of motion concerns drawing free-body diagrams. To practice the required pre-requisite skills for free-body diagrams, individuals identify which forces act in specific...
Physics Classroom
Distance vs. Displacement
Home is where your displacement is zero. Scholars practice solving distance versus displacement problems of increasing difficulty. They begin with two stage motion and, by the wizard level, each problem has four stage motion to consider....
