2D Motion

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Physics Education Technology (PhET) University of Colorado
Grade Level: Secondary, Post-secondary

Abstract: Learn about velocity and acceleration vectors. Move the ball with the mouse or let the simulation move the ball in four types of motion (two types of linear, simple harmonic, circle). See the velocity and acceleration vectors change as the ball moves.

Accelerated motion in one dimension

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: The nature of acceleration is determined by the net external force for constant mass system. Depending on the nature of force, there exists wide range of possibilities like zero, constant or varying accelerations in one dimensional motion.

Accelerated motion in one dimension (application)

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: Solving problems is an essential part of the understanding process.

Accelerated motion in two dimensions

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: Motion in two dimensions with one dimensional acceleration (projectile) is analyzed with component motions in coordinate system, whereas motion in two dimensions with two dimensional acceleration (circular motion) is analyzed with the help of component accelerations - tangential and normal accelerations.

Acids and Bases: Testing Rocket Cars

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: WGBH Educational Foundation
Grade Level: Primary, Secondary

Abstract: A car propelled by the reaction between lemon juice and baking soda has more in common with rockets and jet aircraft than one might think. In this video segment adapted from ZOOM, two cast members demonstrate the power of rocket-propelled vehicles and how to exploit the force produced by the carbon dioxide ... More »

Analysis of resultant motion

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Secondary, Post-secondary

Abstract: Analysis of resultant motion is best fit to the principle of independence of motion in mutually perpendicular directions.

Analyzing collision

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: Analyzing collision situation involves application of basic conservation principles in a closed system.

Angular momentum

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: The angular momentum in rotation is a subset of angular momentum about a point in general motion.

Angular momentum (check your understanding)

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: Objective questions, contained in this module with hidden solutions, help improve understanding of the topics covered under the module "Angular momentum".

Angular quantities for general motion

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: Angular quantities are not limited to rotation about fixed axis only.

Attributes of motion

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: Negative vector is a relative term - not an independent concept. We completely loose the significance of a negative vector when we consider it in isolation. A negative vector assumes meaning only in relation with another vector or some reference direction.

Attributes of one dimensional motion

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: One dimensional attributes need careful interpretation because a vector quantity, inherently different to scalar, is represented by a signed scalar (positive or negative) quantity with superimposed notions of two concepts (scalar and velocity).

Brownian Motion

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: This module presents an overview of Brownian motion, with a focus on how it relates to nanotechnology. It looks at Brownian motion from a historical, physical, mathematical, and biological perspective in order to give the reader a complete view of this phenomenon.

Center of mass

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: There is a characteristic geometric point of the three dimensional body in motion, which behaves yet as a particle.

Center of mass and rigid bodies

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: Under certain condition, COM of rigid bodies is same as geometric center.

Center of mass (check your understanding)

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: Objective questions, contained in this module with hidden solutions, help improve understanding of the topics covered in the modules "Center of mass" and "Center of mass and rigid bodies".

Circle of Pong

Rating:
Type: Library or Collection
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: The Tech Museum of Innovation Design Challenges
Grade Level: Primary

Abstract: Students use their knowledge of potential and kinetic energy, and explore forces and motion to place a ball into the center of a 6-foot diameter circle.

Circular motion and rotational kinematics

Rating:
Type: Course Related Materials
Subject: Science and Technology
Collection: Connexions
Grade Level: Post-secondary

Abstract: Each part of a rigid body under pure rotational motion describes a circular motion about a fixed axis.
