Dynamics

By the end of this unit, students will know:

• How to apply the concept of inertia to determine the motion of an object experiencing a net force and zero net force.

• How to algebraically manipulate and utilize the following equations:

ΣF = ma

By the end of this unit, students will be able to:

• Describe inertia using Newton’s First Law.

• Relate force, mass and acceleration using Newton’s Second Law.

• Solve problems using Newton’s Second Law.
