Discover a clear and insightful explanation of projectile motion using polar coordinate systems, where we explore how position, velocity, and acceleration can be represented in polar form. This video ...
I wish Angry Birds had been around when I was teaching high school physics. Please don’t think of the game as a hate crime against hogs, or an avian anger management program—instead, think of it as a ...
The terms projectile and trajectory are introduced. Projectile Motion: The terms projectile and trajectory are introduced. Students learn to describe horizontal and vertical components of a projectile ...
I’ve started recreating many of my numerical model tutorials for introductory physics. In the beginning, I had students use spreadsheets to create models. Of course, spreadsheets aren’t very good for ...
It is that FIRST Robotics competition time of the year. Basically, in FIRST, high school students work in teams to build robots that compete in specific tasks. Apparently, this year a task involves ...
Understand the equation of motion for vertical motion with linear drag and gravity! 🏃‍♂️💨 In this video, we break down how objects move under the influence of gravity while experiencing air ...
