Applying Newton's first law to answer some true/false statements about why objects move (or not).

An introduction to the difference between distance traveled and displacement.

Using a one-dimensional number line to visualise and calculate distance and displacement.

Figuring out the acceleration of ice down a plane made of ice.

Managing time involves accurately predicting how much time it will take to do a task, and then setting aside that amount of time to complete it. Managing time is much more difficult than it may seem, which is why there are entire courses of study and research on the best approaches. But if you develop a method to undertake each component, you’ll be successful.

An elaboration on how to use Newton's second law when dealing with multiple forces, forces in two dimensions, and diagonal forces.

An elaboration on some of the common misconceptions in dealing with Newton's Third Law. He also shows how to correctly and reliably identify Third Law force pairs.

Basic primer on Newton's First Law of motion.

Newton's Laws of Motion

Newton's second law of motion is F = ma, or force is equal to mass times acceleration. Learn how to use the formula to calculate acceleration.
