Application of Two Dimensional Forces

It is now time to bring together much of what you’ve learned so far in this course.  Don’t be surprised if you are challenged in this topic, as it often takes students some practice to be able to effectively approach physics problems.  However, as you follow the examples in this topic and work through a few problems on your own, you should begin to appreciate how even the most complex problem in physics can be broken down into smaller, logical pieces.  This is a pattern that will continue through the rest of this course.

Essential Question:

• How do you best approach complex problems involving angled forces?
