This paper presents the methods developed by the University of Washington University team headed by Lillian McDermott. This team explores ways to teach various physics topics and develops teaching materials. Applications of this teaching... more
We propose an introduction to the concept of acceleration in high school using devices familiar to all students. To do this, we describe a simple experiment, and then characterize, via discussion, the physical agents capable of propelling... more
Introduction: Study of projectile motion describes dynamics in two dimensions. It forms the basis for rocket launching and missiles. Besides it is related to baseball, basketball, tennis and cricket and many more games. Exercises in... more
