[Tutorial] Physics Made Easy

Hi everyone,

I want to start making physics tutorials. The first three units that I will cover are relatively easy to learn (and teach which is why we're starting here).

Relativity will be first, as requested by Emma333.

Units

Unit 0: Introduction - Math level required for the course, Vectors vs Scalars, Basic Trigonometry, Other stuff as I see fit

Unit 1: Kinematics - How motion takes place.

Unit 2: Dynamics - Why motion takes place.

More later

I'll open the topic for feedback once I get my lesson for the first unit posted.

Re: [Tutorial] Physics Made Easy

Who asked for this!?

This is a game forum, not Saturday school. Go away.

~Unless what you want is feedback on your physics tutorials, in which case you’re probably still in the wrong place. The people old enough to understand the maths likely won’t give a damn.

Re: [Tutorial] Physics Made Easy

Nobody asked for it - I just thought I would help those who are taking any physics courses. Everyone at some point will most likely will. In high school or college.

You're probably right about the math level required, which is why it will be Algebra based unless if people express their interest in a Calculus based course.

Stay tuned everyone!

EDIT: Please only comment units that you are all interested in, and other general feedback.

most likely

It can also be argued that chemistry is a form of physics. I myself am not experienced with chemistry field of physics at all at all.
Anyway this isn't on topic.

offtopic topics still have a topic, they just don’t fit anywhere else on the forums

I dissent. Chemistry is essentially applied physics. Without studies in kinetics, molecular theory, or certain concepts of quantum physics (elementary stuff such as bohr model, energy levels, interactions between particles), the entire branch of chemistry will not exist as it is. Most topics such as organic chemistry, acid-base equilibria, and selected fields in thermodynamics all depend on previous theories rooted deep in physics.

The image states quantum chemistry is not inherently physics, but I believe chemistry is the rigorous study of a certain field of physics, similar to how biology is the focus of "macro-chemistry", where instead of analyzing the interaction between particles, it is the analysis of the interaction between groups of particles (DNA synthesis, process of cellular respiration)

Re: [Tutorial] Physics Made Easy

Could u post them before thursday because then is my exam. Also consider a unit on relativity because that's the main topic of my exam, thank you.

Wtf I had a physics exam today, will get a bad mark on it..
Hope if I've seen this topic before, meh you should've posted stuff before.

Re: [Tutorial] Physics Made Easy

Relativity
I have not finished the complete lesson plan but here are the objectives that will be covered.

Objectives

• State the basic postulates and premises of Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity (Time Dilation, Length Contraction, Rest Mass, Relativistic Energy & Momentum [Will come back to these two after their regular units])

• Know the importance of Planck's theory of black body radiation, and the ability to use Planck's formula (E=hf) to determine the energy of a light "photon".

• Explain the photoelectric effect experiment, and use the photoelectric equation. State that the photoelectri effect illustrates conservation of energy for a light incident on a metal surface.

• Explain the nature of the Compton effect, the Compton scattering experiment, and work with the Comption equation. Know that the Compton effect illustrates the law of conservation of momentum for a photon.

• Illustrate that all particles have a wavelength by deriviing and using the de Broglie hypothesis. Cite the Davission-Gemer Experiment and particle diffraction as evidence for the de Broglie hypothesis. Explain that one technology that was derived from this is the electron microsope.

More objectives as I think about them.

This post will be edited with the lesson plan.

(I would edit my post but that is supposed to only be for the lesson plan.)
Sorry I missed your comment!
I don't believe so because I don't have much experience with that field of physics, but maybe in the future after I do some digging.
