Motion

Overview

Defining motion Classify a list of familiar motions into random, relational, oscillatory, and translational motion Identifying the forces that cause a given body to move Identifying which force or forces slow(s) down and finally stops a moving body. Identifying a force resisting the motion between two surfaces in contact and moving relative to each other. Reducing friction in a given situation. Identifying circular motion.
