Physics of Motion (Syllabus) - basic in School Certificate.
Outcome 5.6: A student applies models, theories and laws to situations involving energy, force and motion.
5.6.2 Newton’s Laws – motion
a) describe qualitatively the relationship between force, mass and acceleration
b) explain qualitatively the relationship between distance, speed and time
c) relate qualitatively acceleration to a change in speed and/or direction as a result of a net force
d) analyse qualitatively common situations involving motion in terms of Newton’s Laws.
5.6.6 gravitational force
a) distinguish between the terms ‘mass’ and ‘weight’.
Homework:
Question: How do you work out the speed of something? Give one example.
About Me
- drhill
- I come from a Science family: My father Geoffrey Hill was Australia's first computer programmer on CSIRAC the fourth computer in the world. He is credited with invention of Computer music and the development of “Interprogram” a language before Basic. My PhD is in Atomic and Molecular Physics. I have researched the activated oxygen layer above the ozone layer, and 'Assigned' the world's smallest molecule. At the University of Toronto I researched high power UV lasers. I have specialized in automation in fibre optics. This developed into research in Machine Intellect and Robots. I have enjoyed work as an Explainer with Questacon and my time as a part-time soldier. I currently teach High School Science at Epping Boys’ High.
