Introduction
3.2 Adding Forces (Adding Vectors)
This section covers the following syllabus (Physics 5059) requirements.
- add two vectors to determine a resultant by a graphical method
- solve problems for a static point mass under the action of 3 forces for 2-dimensional cases (a graphical method would suffice)
3.3 Newton’s Laws of Motion
3.4 Types of Forces and Free-body Diagrams
This section covers the following syllabus (Physics 5059) requirements.
explain the effects of friction on the motion of a body
identify forces acting on an object and draw free body diagram(s) representing the forces acting on the object (for cases involving forces acting in at most 2 dimensions)
