1D Motion & Kinematics - Physics 101 / AP Physics 1 Review with Dianna Cowern

The video introduces kinematics, emphasizing its importance in understanding motion and safety. It covers mathematical modeling, graphing techniques, and the use of position and velocity graphs to predict motion. The video explains acceleration and derives key equations of motion, applying these concepts to practical scenarios like designing safer bike helmets. The lesson concludes with a discussion on the broader implications of kinematics and encourages further exploration of physics.

Discuss the relationship between acceleration and change in velocity.

What factors can affect the acceleration experienced by a cyclist in a crash?

How can increasing the crumple zone of a helmet improve safety?

What are some real-world applications of kinematics discussed in the lesson?
