Unit 7: The Body in Motion

Learner Objectives

  1. Define position, velocity, and acceleration and explain how they are related.[1]
  2. Define free-fall acceleration and calculate the drag force on objects moving through fluids.[3]
  3.  Translate motion graphs into descriptions of motion in terms of position, velocity and acceleration. Translate descriptions of motion into motion graphs.[2]
  4. Apply  kinematics and Newton’s Second Law of Motion to analyze and predict 1-D motion.[3]
