Unit 4: Dynamics in 1 Dimension
Dynamics is the study of forces and how they relate to objects at rest, objects moving with constant velocity, and objects undergoing accelerated motion. In this unit, I will be focusing on force types, angled forces, rotated coordinate systems, Newton's Laws of Motion, and friction.
