The above video covers Chapter 4A and 4B, introducing you to the basic concept of vector measurements. We cover concepts including graphically adding and subtracting vectors and how to measure their angles against a Cartesian coordinate system or a map.
The above video covers how to solve vector addition and subtracting using trigonometry, which is more accurate and (once you're comfortable) easier to do. It's time to blow the dust off of your triangle geometry! This covers section 4C.
Welcome to Week 3! We're looking this week at how to analyze motion with a set of equations. We're covering Section 3B this week, and you'll have to use these equations a number of times. Remember, you'll never have to memorize equations. You just need to know how and when to use them. Pay attention to the examples I give and the examples in the book. Use the comments field below for any questions, and I'll answer them as soon as I can. See you in class!
Alright! It's time to get started. This is the first flipped lecture for our course, "God and the Nature of Science." If you need to pause to copy down the info on the slides, feel free. Educational videos on youtube need to be less than 15 minutes long, so I won't leave the slides up for more time than it takes to explain them. If you have any questions, you can post them in the comments section of the blog page below, and I'll either address them here or in class.
Bless you! See you in the morning.
Lecture #2: Review of Measurements and Math
Lesson #2 is a whirlwind tour through chapter 2. We're only going this fast because ALL of this is review. If you have any questions, please post them to the comments section below, and I'll address them, either in class or here, depending on when I see it. God Bless you! See you tomorrow.
