Texas Gateway: 3.1 Kinematics in Two Dimensions: An Introduction

Two activities employ the use of kinematic equations for determining projectile ranges. They both require the use of a toy dart gun. Included in this resource are both the teacher's guide and student laboratory sheets. This is an...

How is it that the same animal, living in the same place, at the same time, evolved into two different species? As part of a larger series, an engaging video explains the rise of the chalicothere, the split in evolution, and eventually...

This page provides and list of 70 problems and exercises focusing on the content of Chapter 3: Kinematics in Two Dimensions in the AP Physics online text.

From a chapter on Linear Momentum and Collisions in a Physics textbook. This section of the chapter discusses collisions in two dimensions, what point masses are, how to calculate the conservation of momentum, what happens when two...

From a chapter on Rotational Motion and Angular Momentum in a Physics textbook. This section of the chapter examines collisions of rotating objects in two dimensions and what happens at the point of collision. Includes examples,...

By the end of this section, you will be able to observe collisions of extended bodies in two dimensions and examine collisions at the point of percussion.

By the end of this section, you will be able to identify and explain the properties of a projectile, such as acceleration due to gravity, range, maximum height, and trajectory; determine the location and velocity of a projectile at...

By the end of this section, you will be able to discuss two-dimensional collisions as an extension of one-dimensional analysis, define point masses, derive an expression for conservation of momentum along the x-axis and y-axis, describe...
