Episode 206: Uniform and Non-uniform Acceleration
This learning episode, from the Institute of Physics, looks at basic kinematics and introduces the equations of motion for uniform acceleration. It involves practicing calculations and compares uniform with non-uniform acceleration.
Activities look at:
• non-uniform acceleration down a ramp
• deriving the equations of motion
• measuring the acceleration due to gravity
• student calculations
