Physics 101 Rotational Motion and Gravitation

This course serves as an introduction to the physics of rotational motion and gravitation Upon completion, learners will have an understanding of how mathematical laws and conservation principles describe the motions and interactions of objects all around us They will gain experience in solving physics problems with tools such as graphical analysis, algebra, vector analysis, and calculus The course is the third course in the Physics 101 specialization, which follows the typical progression of topics of a first-semester university physics course: Kinematics, Newton’s Laws, Energy, and Momentum Each of the modules contains reading links to a free textbook, complete video lectures, conceptual quizzes, and a set of homework problems Once the modules are completed, the course ends with an exam This comprehensive course is similar in detail and rigor to those taught on-campus It will thoroughly prepare learners for their upcoming introductory physics courses, or more advanced courses in physics
