ISC 223 covers 26 topics. StudyPath paces them into daily study
sessions that finish before your exam date, with practice questions and worked
answers for each one.
1 Derive and use the equation: average speed – distance over time taken
2 Derive and use the relationship: acceleration - change of velocity over time taken
3 Compute and use the relationship that acceleration is proportional to the force acting on a
4 Interpret a speed/time graph for linear motion
5 Newton’s law of motion
6 Gravitational force
7 Concept and purpose of space travels.
8 Satellite and its uses in the society
.0 MOMENTUM
1 Application of momentum to the study of moving objects e.g. table tennis ball compared to a
2 Application of Newton's Laws of Motion and derivation of the concept of force as rate of
3 Derivations;
3 Principles of conservation of linear momentum.
0 WORK, ENERGY AND POWER
1 Concepts and units of work, energy and power from \iSC 115
2 Derivation of the expressions KE =
1 mv2 and PE = mgh, and apply them to example
0 MOTION IN A CIRCLE
1 Uniform motion in a circular path.
3 Application of the concept of angular velocity to circular motion.
5 Centrifugal and Centripetal force, production of artificial gravity.
0 SIMPLE HARMONIC MOTION
1 Simple Harmonic• Motion (SHM) as motion of a particle whose acceleration is
2 Amplitude, frequency and period with respect to SHM, and the energy associated with SHM;
3 SHM with practical examples e.g. the simple pendulum and oscillating mass on spring in a
A sample from this course
One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.
0 SPEED AND ACCELERATION
Speed and acceleration are basic quantities used to describe how a body moves. For exams, you must clearly distinguish distance from displacement, speed from velocity, and know how acceleration measures the rate of change of velocity in both uniform and non-uniform motion.
