How to Solve Physics Problems with Forces – Physics – Mechanics Have you ever been stuck when trying to answer a mechanics question involving forces? Maybe you were clueless on how to begin, or often get stuck at a certain point? Well, this course is there to solve that problem! This course presents a 5-step technique that can guide you through any physics problem involving force. Access the course here: - On Udemy (Udemy is a pay per course platform - no subscripion): https://www.udemy.com/course/solving-physics-problems-with-forces/?referralCode=4EB9B62F16AD18836830 - - - - COURSE STRUCTURE - - - - This course is structured in 3 sections. The first three episodes contain a summary of the 5 steps and 2 solved examples. The goal of this first section is to for you to get an overview of the technique before diving into the details. The second section consists in 6 lesson videos. The process of applying each step is presented in detail and in various situation. The conceptual and mathematical tools required to carry out each single step are also presented (1 step = 1 video + 1 extra video about the manipulation of vectors). You will learn here how to draw a free body diagram, how to express a resultant force mathematically, how to manipulate vectors, when and how to apply Newton’s Laws etc… The third section is your play-ground! You will find 8 exercises for you to train your skills in applying the 5-step technique to solve physics problems. After giving you a chance to solve each question yourself, the presenter carries out a detailed correction on the white board. This section also contains a video lesson about mechanical friction forces. If you follow this class till the end, and carry out all the exercises diligently, you will gain more than just the ability to solve mechanics problems. Hopefully, you will realise that Physics is actually pretty easy to handle: the patterns of thinking presented in this course are commonly used in many areas of physics, and could be very useful to you in your studies. The level of this class corresponds to the last years of High School Physics Programs. This makes it an ideal tool as support for the lessons you get at school, and to prepare any High School Diplomas in Physics, like for example IB Physics, A-Level Physics, AP Physics etc. - - - - DETAILED CONTENT- - - - *** Section 1 *** The 5-step technique to solve physics problems with forces (Introduction) Episode 1: The 5-step technique in a nutshell Episode 2: Solved example in 1 dimension Episode 3: Solved example in 2 dimensions *** Section 2 *** The 5 steps in detail (Lesson Videos) Episode 4: Free Body Diagrams (Step 1) Episode 5: Defining the Axes (Step 2) Episode 6: Manipulating Vectors Episode 7: Expressing the Net Force (Step 3) Episode 8: Applying Newton’s Laws (Step 4) Episode 9: Solving the Problem *** Section 3 *** Applying the 5-step technique (Exercise Videos) Episode 10: Tensions & Ropes (Exercise 1) Episode 11: Connected Blocks (Exercise 2) Episode 12: A Block on a Slope (Exercise 3) Episode 13: Understanding Friction (Lesson Video) Episode 13B: Friction on an inclined plane (Exercise 4) Episode 14: The Elevator (Exercise 5) Episode 15: The Crate and the Pit (Exercise 6) Episode 16: The Flea Jump (Exercise 7) Episode 17: The Asymmetric Rope (Exercise 8) - - - - CONTACT AND CREDITS - - - - This video is produced and presented by Edouard Reny, Ph.D. in materials sciences and private tutor in Physics.
