NSW Syllabus Reference: MEX-M1.2: Modelling motion without resistance. This will require student to
- examine force, acceleration, action and reaction under constant and non-constant force (ACMSM133, ACMSM134)
- examine motion of a body under concurrent forces (ACMSM135)
- consider and solve problems involving motion in a straight line with both constant and non-constant acceleration and derive and use the expressions \(\dfrac{{dv}}{{dt}},\,v\dfrac{{dv}}{{dx}}\) and \(\dfrac{d}{{dx}}(\dfrac{1}{2}{v^2})\) for acceleration (ACMSM136)
- use Newton’s laws to obtain equations of motion in situations involving motion other than projectile motion or simple harmonic motion
- describe mathematically the motion of particles in situations other than projectile motion and simple harmonic motion
- derive and use the equations of motion of a particle travelling in a straight line with both constant and variable acceleration (ACMSM114)
