Week 6 - Newton's Laws

Weekly Objectives:

1. Explain the differences between mass and gravity and be able to measure and calculate these values accurately.

2. Define inertia and it's relationship to mass and motion

3. Explain the relationship between force, mass and acceleration

4. Use Newton's laws to solve complex problems with multiple objects in motion (Atwood Machine)

5. Draw detailed force diagrams showing applied forces, gravitational forces, and support forces and use these diagrams to support calculations and problem solving
