•Work with projectiles in 1 and 2 dimensions.

•Assume that the effects of air resistance are negligible.

•Explain that projectiles:

•accelerate downwards with a constant acceleration whether the

projectile is moving upward or downward

•have zero velocity in the vertical direction at their greatest height

•take the same time to reach their greatest height from the point of upward launch as the time they take to

fall back to the point of launch

•Distinguish between elastic and inelastic collisions.

• Use Newton's 1st, 2nd and 3rd Laws of Motion to provide qualitative explanations of relevant aspects

of the principle of conservation of linear momentum, e.g. impulse and its relationship to change of

Frames of reference.

(one dimension only)

• Define relative velocity.

• Specify the velocity of an object relative to different frames of reference (in 1 dimension only), e.g. for

a person walking inside a train give the velocity relative to the train and relative to the ground.

• Use vectors to find the velocity of an object that moves relative to something else that is itself moving,

e.g. if the velocity of a bird relative to the air is vba and of the air relative to the ground is vag then the

velocity of the bird relative to the ground is vbg= vba + vag

In the examination, students will probably encounter a completely different set of contexts to those experienced during the year. This is the purpose of learning skills and not content. Students who have worked throughout the year will have little or no preparation to do for the exams. We are currently revising in class. Students who feel they need additional preparation should go through tests, examinations and worksheets done during the course of the year.
