We all have deep questions in life - Where am I? Where am I going? How long will it take me to get there?
Much of our daily lives revolve around position, velocity, and acceleration - all of which are examples of vectors.
This lesson will focus on what each of these three concepts mean, how they relate to each other, and how you can calculate each of them at a certain point in time given initial conditions of an object's motion.
Not only that, we have to report such measurements in proper units and convert them from one to another with ease.
What are the primary metric prefixes?
What steps are necessary to convert from one unit to another?
What are some key differences between vectors and scalars?
How do you break a vector into its components?
How do you use components of a vector to determine its magnitude and direction?
How do you add two or more vectors together?
What are the differences between position, velocity, and acceleration?
How do position, velocity, and acceleration relate to one another?
Given an object's initial conditions, how can velocity and position be calculated at any moment in time?
