Grade 11 Physics

Kinematics

Kinematics is all about motion. Motion is a change in position relative to a frame of reference

Vocabulary

scalar vs vector distance vs displacement speed vs velocity frame of reference acceleration

Vectors

Vectors can be manipulated in two ways, by trigonometry or on a Cartesian coordinate system

The four kinemetic equations

$$d = v_it + \frac{1}{2}at^2$$ $$v_f^2 = v_i^2 + 2ad$$ $$v_f = v_i + at$$ $$d = \frac{v_i + v_f}{2}t$$

A Mathematical Model of Sunspot Activity Handout

The purpose of this project is to produce a report on the sunspot cycle and how you developed a mathematical model of it. The report should be 2-3 pages long and include

  • a graph of the data,
  • your mathematical model and an explanation of the amplitude, period, phase shift and offset,
  • a story of how you developed and tested it.
  • A discussion on how well your model matches the data and what you could do to improve the model.
  • A discussion of why or why not your model matches the current sunspot cycle.
