gradient = \(\frac{change~in~y}{change~in~x} = \frac{change~in~speed}{change~in~time} = \) \( \frac{change~in~metres~per~second}{change~in~seconds}\) = metres per ...

Physics can feel inscrutable to students; this lesson helps them understand a graphing problem by analyzing their own ...

gradient = \( \frac {\text{change in y}}{\text{change in x}} = \frac {\text{change in speed}}{\text{change in time}}\) \( = \frac {\text{change in metres per second ...

One of the most basic things students do in a physics lab is to collect data and use that to build a model. Most of these models come in the form of a mathematical function. But here is the problem.

Come to lab (hopefully not late). Most likely listen to a boring (but short) lecture that seems similar to stuff that was also covered in lecture class – but it’s still confusing. Look at some new ...

Vernier Video Physics uses video data to calculate velocity over time. Vernier Software & Technology has rolled out a new application that works with the iPod touch, iPad, or iPhone to collect physics ...
