Name: Toy Car UAM Problem with Two Difference Accelerations

Category: Kinematics

Date Added: 21 May 2014 - 03:45 PM

Submitter: Flipping Physics

Short Description: None Provided

In this lesson we continue to use what we have learned about solving Uniformly Accelerated Motion (UAM) problems. This problem is more complicated because it involves two, interconnected parts.

Content Times:

0:26 Reading the problem

0:46 Seeing the problem

1:11 Translating from words to physics

1:58 Splitting the problem into two parts

3:13 Fixing the knowns (common mistakes)

4:35 How do we know we can use the UAM equations?

5:19 Drawing a picture to better understand the problem

6:00 Finding the missing known

7:29 What are we finding again?

8:45 The end of part 1 is the start of part 2!

9:29 Beginning to solve the problem :)

11:19 Solving part (B)

13:53 What is wrong with solving the whole thing at once?

16:03 Rapping it up!
