Analyze motion in one- and two-dimensions, including uniform motion, uniformly accelerated motion, circular motion and projectile motion.
SI
Indicators for this outcome
| (a) | Provide examples of situations in which everyday objects undergo uniform motion, uniformly accelerated motion, circular motion and projectile motion. (STSE) |
| (b) | Critique examples of realistic and non-realistic motion in popular culture such as movies, TV shows and comics. (STSE) |
| (c) | Solve problems involving different types of motion in one- and two-dimensions, including relative motion, using graphical methods, vector analysis and kinematics equations. E.g. $v ↖ {→} = {\Δd}/t$, $v ↖ {→}_f = v ↖ {→}_i+a ↖ {→}\Δt$, $v ↖ {→2}_f = v ↖ {→2}_i+2a ↖ {→}\Δd ↖ {→}$, $\Δd ↖ {→} = v ↖ {→}_i \Δt + 1/2a ↖ {→} \Δt^2$, and $\Δd ↖ {→} = 1/2(v ↖ {→}_i+v ↖ {→}_f)\Δt$. (S) |
| (b) | Experimentally determine the value of the acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface. (K, S) |
| (c) | Analyze the horizontal and vertical components of a projectile's motion using tools such as video analysis and/or online simulations. (K, S) |
| (d) | Solve problems involving projectile motion and objects in free fall using graphical (e.g., scale diagrams) and/or mathematical (e.g., vector components, sine law and cosine law) methods. (S) |
| (e) | Design and perform an experiment that includes collecting, analyzing and interpreting data from objects that undergo projectile motion or uniform circular motion. (STSE) |
| (f) | Determine the characteristics (e.g., speed, velocity, period, distance travelled and acceleration) of uniform circular motion. (K, S) |
| (g) | Describe the orbits (e.g., geosynchronous, elliptical and/or circular) of satellites and celestial bodies using uniform circular motion concepts. (K, STSE) |
| (h) | Predict the path an object (e.g., shot put, discus, hammer throw, bolo, particles in a synchrotron and rocket undergoing gravity assisted space travel) will follow once released from uniform circular motion. (K, S, STSE) |
| (i) | Discuss the challenges in representing real world motion using models of ideal motion, which normally treat objects as a single center of mass and which disregard frictional forces. (STSE) |
