What will I learn?
This focused Kinematics Course develops essential skills in motion analysis, covering fundamental quantities, definitions, and models for uniform and accelerated motion. Learners will plan realistic experiments, produce and evaluate synthetic data, numerically derive velocity and acceleration with error estimates, interpret position-time, velocity-time, and acceleration-time graphs, and compile structured reports linking data to motion models.
