Motion in a plane

 

 

Summary:

In this unit we will expand what we did in the kinematics unit to include motion in a plane.  This will include the use of vector components, trigonometry and quadratic equations to analyze basic projectile motion.

 

Assignments:

There will be a lab to in this unit utilizing projectiles, several homework quizzes and a test at the end.  There will be a quiz about every week and the unit test will be on the 20th of October.

 

Readings:

Chapter 3
