Physics Unit 3 AOS 1 - How do physicists explain motion in two dimensions?
This unit is composed of two different modules that can be completed individually (approximately 4 hours each). The modules include:
Physics Unit 3 AOS 1: 1.1 - Newton’s laws of motion
Students will use interactive activities including simulations, videos and apps, to:
Apply Newton's three laws of motion.
Analyse the uniform circular motion of an object moving in a horizontal plane.
Model natural and artificial satellite motion as uniform circular motion.
Apply Newton's second law to circular motion in a vertical plane.
Study the motion of projectiles near the Earth's surface.
Apply the laws of energy and momentum conservation.
Physics Unit 3 AOS 1: 1.2 - Relationships between force, energy and mass
Students will use interactive activities including simulations, videos and apps, to investigate the:
Impulse in an isolated system for collisions
The concept of work done by a constant force
The transformations of energy between kinetic energy, potential energy and energy dissipated to the environment
