S4P Solve problems for objects moving in a straight line with a constant acceleration. o This will use kinematics equations S4P Solve relative motion problems for constant velocities using vectors. o One and two dimensions (excluding the sine law and cosine law problems) S4P Solve vector problems for objects in equilibrium. o One dimension - example, a sign suspended by one or two ropes (tension and Fg) o Two dimensions example: S4P Calculate the forces acting on an object resting on an inclined plane. S4P Calculate the components of Fg exerted on an object resting on an inclined plane. S4P Solve problems with Ff for objects on a horizontal surface and on an inclined plane. o This includes Atwood Machines and overhanging masses S4P Solve problems using Fnet = ma where Fnet = Fapplied + Ffriction and using kinematics equations. S4P Perform an experiment to investigate forces acting on an object. o Not on exam, we did this in class. S4P Derive the impulse-momentum equation from Newton's second law. o

2 S4P Determine impulse from the area under a force-time graph. o S4P Experiment to illustrate the Law of Conservation of Momentum in one and two dimensions. o Not on exam, we did this in class. S4P Solve problems using the impulse-momentum equation and the Law of Conservation of Momentum. o o Collisions, Explosions, Inelastic, and Elastic Collisions (one and two dimensions) S4P Relate the impulse-momentum equation to real-life situations. o Be able to solve problems involving baseballs, bullets, football players, cars, etc. S4P Solve simple free-fall problems using the special equations for constant acceleration. o If we are talking straight free fall (y-values), we can use kinematics S4P Draw free-body diagrams for a projectile at various points along its path (with and without air resistance). o

3 S4P Calculate the horizontal and vertical components with respect to velocity and position of a projectile at various points along its path. o Vertical = Kinematics Equations o Horizontal = horizontal vx is constant S4P Solve problems for projectiles launched horizontally and at various angles to the horizontal to calculate maximum height, range, and overall time of flight of the projectile. o We did a lot of practice with this in our projectiles lab! S4P Explain qualitatively why an object moving at constant speed in a circle is accelerating toward the centre of the circle. o An object experiencing uniform circular motion is continuously accelerating. We call this centripetal acceleration because the object always points towards the center of the circular path. S4P Discuss the centrifugal effects with respect to Newton's laws. o There is a common misconception that an object moving in a circle has an outward force acting on it that is called a centrifugal or centre-fleeing force. o As an example, consider a person swinging a ball on the end of a string. If you have ever done this yourself, you known that you feel a force pulling outward on your hand. This misconception arises when this pull is interpreted as an outward centrifugal force pulling on the ball that is transmitted along the string to the hand. o This is not what is happening at all! To keep the ball moving a a circle, the person pulls inwardly on the ball. The ball then exerts an equal and opposite force on the hand (Newton s third law) and this is what your hand feels. The force on the ball is the one exerted inwardly on it by the person. o Think of what would happen if you let go of the string. If there were a centrifugal force acting, the ball would fly straight out along the radius of its motion. We know that this doesn t happen. The ball actually flies off on a tangent in the direction of the velocity that it had at the moment it was released because the inward force no longer is acting.

4 S4P Draw free-body diagrams of an object moving in uniform circular motion. o S4P Experiment to determine the mathematical relationship between period and frequency and one or more of the following: centripetal force, mass, and radius. o We did this in our Centripetal Motion Lab not on exam. S4P Derive an equation for the constant speed and acceleration of an object moving in a circle. S4P Solve problems for an object moving with a constant speed in a circle using 3 equations (a = v2/r, v = 2 pi r/t, and Fnet = ma) S4P Define work as the product of displacement and the component of force parallel to the displacement when the force is constant.
