Imagine you want to study what happens when an object accelerates. Oh, this is way before any of that internet stuff—also, no computers or electronics. In fact, let's say it's the year 1780. What do ...

We're at the Porsche test track to learn all about acceleration. Unit 2 Segment C: Acceleration and Kinematic Equations We're back at the Porsche test track to learn all about acceleration. Kinematic ...

Have you ever noticed athletes accelerating during the 100 meter run? The more they accelerate, the more they lean forward. Why? Let's do a simple analysis. Suppose the runner can be modeled as a ...

Speaker one We’ve been using Sir Isaac Newton’s theories for hundreds of years and still use his equations today. Now, how can we test Newton’s second law using equipment found in our laboratory?

In Physics 01 Chapter 4, we explore how motion is described using the fundamental kinematic equations. Learn how position, ...

Newton's Second Law states that force equals mass times acceleration. This can be investigated using a set-up like this one. You can use this set-up to investigate how changing two separate factors, ...
