Translational Motion
from MCAT Basics (from MedSchoolCoach) · host MedSchoolCoach
This podcast addresses translational motion. First, vectors are covered. Then, the variables of acceleration, velocity, and position are discussed. Next, the host discusses the relationship between those three variables. Finally, it covers free fall, projectile motion, air resistance, and friction.
