Revised 7-27-05 1st six weeks # 1 Objective Identify the direction of a vector (using the Cartesian coordinate system) if given a graphical representation of a vector. Identify the direction of a vector (using the Cartesian coordinate system) if given a graphical representation of the vector and surrounding (and sometimes distracting) vectors. Recognize the significance of Newton's law of inertia by identifying and refuting classic misconceptions concerning the causes of motion. Recognize inertia as a property of an object which depends solely upon mass. Identify the proportional relationship between acceleration, net force, and mass. Predict the quantitative effect of an alteration in the net force or mass of an object upon the acceleration of that object. Explain the meaning of a vector component and use that understanding to compare the relative magnitudes of the components of a given vector. Use trigonometric functions to calculate the components of a given vector. Identify the forces acting upon an object upon an inclined plane and determine the value and recognize the importance of the components of the weight vector. Compare forces and force components for objects placed upon inclined planes.
