OOMPH
from Rose · host Imani Gibson 🪬
“Figuring out the formula for OOMPH An important physical quantity, the name of which we’ll give later, corresponds to the intuitive idea of oomph. The more oomph something has, the harder it is to stop, and the more ability it has to knock other things over. Let’s figure out the formula for oomph. If you already know the formula from a previous class, please “play along” and don’t give it away. We’ve structured this tutorial so that you’ll learn something even if you already know the formula. We know some of you don’t like mucking around with intuitions, but trust us, in this tutorial it’ll lead somewhere quickly, and you’ll end up practicing some physics.” © University of Maryland Physics Education Research Group, Fall 2004. 6-1 More about me https://linktr.ee/imanigibson
