The motions of objects and the forces between and on objects can be described verbally, mathematically, graphically, and with real-life data. You will have opportunities to do demonstrate your learning in all of these ways.
Topics covered this year will include:
Newton's Laws - The Study of Forces Kinematics - The Mathematics of Motion
Projectiles - Motion in 2 Dimensions
Gravitation - The Motions and Forces of Planets and Stars
Electrical Forces - Like Gravitation but for Electrical Charges
Energy - How Forces affect Motion and Arrangement of Objects
Momentum - The Relationship between Forces and Motions
Electrical Circuits - an introduction to simple electricty
