Below are the learning guides for each topic in mechanics. Ensure that you complete all the activities in each learning guide and get them checked off by your learning leader (Miss Martin, Ms McKinney or Mrs Booker) before moving onto the next learning guide.

extra material to do with Mechanics Learning Guide #1: collection of q's to help you practise the kinematic equations instructions for what to do with the bubble tube both velocitytime AND distancetime graphs--match graph to 'story' instructions on how to set up and use the motion detector (NOT the instructions for what to do with it though)

page 1 is 'what you have to know'; page 2-3 are the same formulae with some columns for extra info (add as you go); page 4 is the same formulae but in outline font so you can colour them in (thanks Sam and Farran)

LEARNING GUIDE #2 "the paper river" relative velocity experiment from Learning Guide 2 HINT -- get 3 coloured pens. Use one colour for each of "boat start (on paper)" "boat start (on floor)" and "river start (on floor)". You also need to record finish positions for each of these (...but read the instructions...)

LEARNING GUIDE #3 LEARNING GUIDE #4 ...NB this version replaces the incorrect version in your notes...
