Foundations of Physics: Projectile, Relative, and Circular Motion

Kinematics is the foundation of physics, but moving beyond simple straight-line motion can feel daunting. This text-based course guides you through the mechanics of two-dimensional motion, breaking down complex paths into clear, logical equations. What you'll learn: - Understand the foundational principles of vector decomposition and two-dimensional kinematics - Analyze projectile motion by separating horizontal and vertical components - Calculate relative velocity to solve classic motion problems from different frames of reference - Master the dynamics of uniform and non-uniform circular motion - Apply systematic analytical frameworks to classical mechanics challenges - Practice with structured written exercises designed to build strong problem-solving habits You will start with essential terminology, basic coordinate systems, and vector concepts before progressing step-by-step through projectile trajectories, relative motion, and circular paths. This course is designed for beginners and high school students looking to build a rock-solid foundation in physics without needing prior advanced calculus.
