Have you ever wondered how a batter times his swing so that he hits a baseball out of the park? Or have you tossed a ball up to the ceiling just to see if the ball will “barely” touch it before it returns to the ground. This unit will deal with motion in one and two dimensions that scientists term kinematics. In kinematics, you will learn how to qualitatively and quantitatively describe motion. You will also learn how fast you need to toss that ball to just barely reach the ceiling.
