Kinematics 1

1
Position and Reference

How are things located in physics? How is it different from real life locations? How do you locate an object in a featureless frame? Is the position relative?

2
Motion and Velocity

Motion is relative. How are moving objects distinguished from stationary ones? Do you know the difference between the actual trajectory and the average displacement?

3
Acceleration

How can people drink juice in a fast-moving airplane without spilling it? How’s acceleration related to forces?

4
Graphs

Graphs are important tools used to visualize the progress of functions. How are they used for kinematic functions and what are their secrets?

Dynamics 1

1
Force

What are the categories and kinds of forces? Why and how are forces represented by arrows and not by numbers like mass?

2
Special Forces and Newton's First Law

Why do we pull tissues easily? Why do we fall forwards when the bus-driver hits the brakes and sideways when a car makes a short turn?

3
Newton's Second and Third Laws

Why is it easy to make light objects move but hard to make heavy ones move? Is friction the only reason behind that? When two objects interact, which force is greater? Is it the one exerted by the heavier object?

Pressure and Buoyant Force

1
Pressure

Is the atmosphere allowing your juice to go up through the straw? How can we predict weather using a barometer? How is pressure related to weather and is it the same as a force? Why should you wear skies on snow?

 

2
Buoyant Force and Archimedes Principle

Why do light objects like nails sink and heavy ones like ships float? Why do you feel lighter in water and how can we fool a scale or a balance?

Work and Energy

1
Work

Do all forces do work? Why is it called work and how is it related to motion?

2
Energy

Are energy, force and power the same? How are energy and work related? How are all kinds of energies categorized in physics?

3
Microscopic and Macroscopic Energies

Does energy create motion? Which energy transformation occurs between the macroscopic and microscopic worlds? Why are we searching for clean and renewable types of energy?
