Using Fizziks to phind gravity (and the one page method)

On your personal small whiteboard, write out how to do World2-1 @ http://www.theuniverseandmore.com/

If you have that down, try another world (hint - it helps on higher levels to pick at least one spot where you know what the velocity is (zero?))

"AP" students - it's a good idea to use simulations (like the Universe Game) to mimic real world situations, or to use Logger Pro and the cart/ramp/motion detector setup to do the same

Let's try this out...

 

Here's a sample of how to use the TWO main motion equations to completely describe a physics situation.  In this case, we'll do the first problem on theuniverseandmore.com world2-1.  Click below and play!

World 2-1 Example

This was done using a sky wifi livescribe pen - highly recommended!  All the notes AND sounds are recorded and can be uploaded so you can share and save your classnotes :-)
