Velocity & Acceleration Video
We’re going to learn about the three universal laws of physical motion in addition to looking at velocity, acceleration, and inertia. This video is a great way to get started before jumping into the experiments, as it lays the foundation of what we’ll be covering as well as what you can expect to learn along the way. We’re also going to cover how to take data, reduce your data into meaningful results, and calculate both acceleration and velocity of objects in your experiments.
If you’re on the younger side, don’t worry about the math and just dive in and start having fun with the activities. If you are an older student looking for clarity on just how gyroscopic precession works with angular momentum, then you’re in the right place. We’ve provided you with textbook readings as well, so feel free to check those out when you’re done with this movie. This video covers both acceleration and velocity, and really gets you started on the right foot. We’ll outline what’s coming up for this week and how to get the most out of our lesson together. Enjoy!

I don’t see video here. Has it been taken down?
Oops – sorry about that! We were updating something and mis-typed the file name. Anytime a video doesn’t work, let me know immediately so we can fix it right away!
I have been unable to get the velocity or acceleration video to play for over a week. I am getting an error message.
wow, all this knowlege of gravity and velocity…. all from an apple falling on newton,
