What is this unit?
The ‘Space, time, and motion’ unit seeks to cover much of the same ground as the old mechanics unit. Students will learn kinematics, forces, momentum, work, energy, and power. The higher-level candidates will also extend their knowledge by looking at rigid body mechanics and – most excitingly – Galilean and special relativity.
For a more in-depth look at the unit, check out the new topic notes.
