This lesson explores appropriate units for metric measurement.

An online activity which will test your understanding of metric measurements.

Outcomes

By the end of this course you will:

• Know what the 12 hour and 24 hour clocks are respectively
• Be able to convert times from the 12 to 24 hour clock and vice versa
• Be familiar with the units of time
• Learn how to convert one unit of time to another

This diagram, Vernier scale use 0.02 scale measurement is 19.44 mm, illustrates how to read the length of the given object using vernier calliper.

Visualising, adding and breaking down vectors in 2 dimensions.

An explanation of wave interference and solution of a few examples to find the value of the total wave when two wave pulses overlap

The wavelength and frequency of a wave are related to one another by the speed of travel of the wave, which depends on the type of wave and the medium through which it is passing.

• Make waves with water, sound, and light and see how they are related.
• Discuss wave properties using common vocabulary.
• Explain how changing the frequency and amplitude affects the characteristics of the wave.
• Design an experiment to measure the speed of the wave.

Energy is a quantitative property of a system that depends on the motion and interactions of matter and radiation within that system. That there is a single quantity called energy is due to the fact that a system’s total energy is conserved, even as, within the system, energy is continually transferred from one object to another and between its various possible forms.

In this unit you will learn what a force is and find out about different types of forces. This will allow you to identify forces at work in your everyday life and understand the effects of forces.
