Motion

In this section you will learn all about motion, specifically projectile and rotational motion. You will learn how gravity works on an object in free fall, fired from a higher position to lower, from a lower position to higher and from a level plane. You will also learn how the centripetal and rotational forces work on objects in differenet scenarios, both ideal and realistic.

In the links below you will learn about free fall, projectile motion, centripetal motion, and torque. In the section real world examples, you will learn how these concepts are applicable in terms of understanding gravity and roational motion and how these basics play a role in higher levels of physics such as in Astrophysics, Aerospace, or Mechanical Engineering.
