Physics Topics

  • The Language of Physics
    Physics is a word that scares most people, adults and students alike. One of the major reasons many people are afraid of physics is the math involved. But ...
  • Metric System
    Metric System - It is imperitive that you know the metric system if you plan to be successful in any science field. The metric system is the science standard for measurement.
  • Scientific Notation
    Scientific Notation - Scientific notation provides a easy method for writing very small and very large numbers while maintaining accuracy and precision with sig figs.
  • Significant Figures
    Scientists collect large amounts of data and most of this data comes from measurements and calculations. Therefore, a system is needed to show the precision of their data and calculations.
  • Unit Analysis
    Unit Analysis - In physics, it is not uncommon to change from one system of measurement to another. The best method to accomplish this change is unit analysis.
  • Inertia
    Inertia and Forces - Newton's First Law of Motion is also known as the Law of inertia. Inertia is the measure of an object's mass. If an object is at rest in tends to remain at rest...

  • Gravity and Weight
  • Linear Motion
    Linear Motion You need to have an understanding of inertia and forces before you can begin to look at linear motion and the concepts involved with such motion. d=rt is it! Remember all those...
