Kinematics: Motion in One Dimension Kinematics: Motion in Two Dimensions Dynamics of a Single Particle Systems of Two or More Bodies Work and Work-Energy Theorem Conservative Forces and Potential Energy Conservation of Energy Power Systems of Particles, Linear Momentum Uniform Circular Motion Angular Momentum and Its Conservation Torque and Rotational Statics Rotational Kinematics and Dynamics Oscillations and Gravitation Pendulum and Other Oscillations Newton's Law of Gravity and Orbits Demonstrations Each of the demonstrations includes a picture, description, suggestion of use, equipment needed, and the approximate setup time.   Inertia Masses Hanging in Series   Inertia - Lead Brick and Hand   Straw and Potato   Equilibrium of Forces Lecture Notes and Tutorials Newton's Laws These notes from PhysicsLAB by Catherine H. Colwell contain detailed explanations of background material, annotated diagrams and illustrations, and solved examples.   Newton's Laws Forces and Motion These notes from Frank Wolfs at the University of Rochester contain calculus-level, detailed explanations of background material, annotated diagrams and illustrations, and solved examples.   Forces and Motion Simulation Newton's First Law and Frames of Reference Each simulation from the Physics Simulation Library includes an audio introduction and general directions. These simulations are very well designed, and each experiment gives the opportunity to change the parameters, collect data, and interpret various graphs.   Newton's First Law and Frames of Reference Exploration Newton's Laws A set of seven multimedia animations depicts elephants and feathers, automobiles, and skydivers to demonstrate the physics of air resistance, free fall, inertia, and Newton's laws of motion. Each animation includes a brief tutorial and interactive exercises.   Newton's Laws See also...
