  4. Understandable Chunks

  5. Understandable Chunks • Kinematics Chapter 2, 3 • Kinematics is the study of the motion of objects. Also known as projectile motion. • One dimensional kinematics • Free fall • Two dimensional kinematics • Graphs of motion

  6. Understandable Chunks Newton’s Laws of Motion Chapter 4 Also known as Dynamics; Newton’s Laws of motion tell us what causes objects to move. What is mass? (first cut) Newton’s Second Law Newton’s Third Law Weight v Mass Free Body Diagrams

  7. Understandable Chunks Unit 3 Work/Energy/Power Momentum Chapter 6, 7 We study kinetic energy, potential energy, and the flow of energy back and forth. What is work? The law of conservation of momentum is fundamental to physics.

  8. Understandable Chunks Chapter 5 Mechanics of constant speed circular motion. Ferris Wheel Problem Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation Orbital Motion and Weightlessness Rotational Statics (Ch 9)

  9. Understandable Chunks Chapters 13, 14, 15 How do physicists view heat? Law of conservation of energy. Ideal Gas Law Adiabatic

  10. Understandable Chunks Chapter 11, 12, 24 Simple harmonic motion Wave motion Types of waves Frequency/Period/Wavelength/Velocity Interference Standing Waves Refraction Sound waves Physical optics (light as a wave)

  11. Understandable Chunks Chapter 10 Density Pressure in Fluids Pascal’s Principle Buoyancy/Archimedes Principle Bernoulli’s Equation

  12. Understandable Chunks Unit 8 - Geometric Optics Chapter 23 In this unit we’ll study the behavior of mirrors and thin lenses. How does a magnifying glass work? Where is the image?

  13. Understandable Chunks • Unit 9 • Electrostatics Chapters 16, 17 What is electricity? What causes electricity? Electric Field Coulomb’s Law Electric Potential Gravitational v Electrical Potential Capac itance

  14. Understandable Chunks • Unit 10 Electric Circuits Chapter 18, 19 Batterys Ohm’s Law EMF Resistors in Series/Parallel Capacitors in Series/Parallel Power in Circuits Ammeters/Voltmeters

  15. Understandable Chunks Chapters 20, 21, 22 Electromagnetic Induction Electromagnetism Electric Generators Electromagnetic Waves

  16. Understandable Chunks Chapters 27, 28, 30, 32 Quantum Theory Photoelectric Effect Energy and Momentum of a Photon Wave Nature of Matter Bohr Model Atomic Spectra Double Slit Experiment Nuclear Physics/Decay
