Introductory Problem Sets

You are to know how to solve the problems in the following sets.  For each item, a problem is posed and you are to solve it.  Then look at the solution and explanations to be sure you understand everything you can about that problem.  These problems will appear on your tests, and you will be expected to explain them and relate them to your experiments.

Set 1:  Uniform Speed, Distance, Time Interval (Velocity, Displacement, `dt)

Set 2:   Uniform Acceleration, Velocities, Distance, Time Interval

Set 3:  Work, Energy and Newton's Second Law

Set 4:  Momentum and Projectiles

Set 5:  Vectors

Set 6:  Interpretation of Graphs

Set 7:  Gravitation

Set 8:  Circular Motion and Rotation

Set 9:  Simple Harmonic Motion
