Teaching Systems Physics Module 4: Circular Motion and Momentum

Product Description

The study of motion in a circle applies to a wide range of activities from Ferris wheels to Ferrari’s, from technologies including space exploration to machine design. This module builds on concepts from Modules 2, 3 and 4. Rotational motion is simple and fun to study as it involves rotating objects such as tops or orbiting objects such as satellites. Linear and angular momentum problems are explored. Students calculate answers in rads (radians), degrees, and trig functions and use the metric system almost exclusively.
