Results

Applying Newton's first law to answer some true/false statements about why objects move (or not).

In this unit you will learn how to identify equivalent metric units of capacity.

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.

Figuring out the acceleration of ice down a plane made of ice.

Basic primer on Newton's First Law of motion.

• Predict, qualitatively, how an external force will affect the speed and direction of an object's motion.
• Explain the effects with the help of a free body diagram.
• Use free body diagrams to draw position, velocity, acceleration and force graphs and vice versa.
• Explain how the graphs relate to one another.
• Given a scenario or a graph, sketch all four graphs.

Outcomes

By the end of this course you will:

• Be able to define capacity and volume
• Be familiar with the metric units of capacity
• Be able to convert from one unit of capacity to another
