#VECTOR 2D MOTION HOW TO#

And in real life, when you need more than one direction, you turn to vectors. We may simplify calculations a lot of the time, but we still want to describe the real world as best as we can. There's no messy second dimension to contend with.īut this is physics. The car's accelerating either forward or backward. That kind of motion is pretty simple, because there's only one axis involved. We've been talking about what happens when you do things like throw balls up in the air or drive a car down a straight road. But there's something missing, something that has a lot to do with Harry Styles. So far, we've spent a lot of time predicting movement where things are, where they're going, and how quickly they're gonna get there. Want to find Crash Course elsewhere on the internet?

#VECTOR 2D MOTION HOW TO#

today, Shini introduces the ideas of Vectors and Scalars so we can better understand how to figure out motion in 2 Dimensions. Continuing in our journey of understanding motion, direction, and velocity.
