About Course

This beginner-level course introduces students to the fundamental concepts of physics, focusing on motion, forces, and energy. Students will explore how objects move, the forces that act on them, and how energy is transferred. By the end of this course, learners will be able to:

  • Understand the basic concepts of motion (speed, velocity, and acceleration).
  • Explain Newton’s Laws of Motion and how they apply to everyday life.
  • Identify different types of forces (gravity, friction, normal force).
  • Learn about potential and kinetic energy and their real-world applications.

What Will You Learn?

  • This course covers fundamental science concepts, including motion and forces, work and energy, matter and its properties, chemical reactions, life processes, and environmental science. You will understand how objects move, how energy is transferred, how substances interact, how living organisms function, and how to promote sustainability in the environment.

Course Content

Module 1: Introduction to Motion
Lesson 1.1: What is Motion?

Module 2: Forces and Newton’s Laws
📌 Lesson 2.1: What is a Force? Definition of force Types of forces (gravity, friction, applied force) Effects of forces on objects 📌 Lesson 2.2: Newton’s Laws of Motion First Law: Law of Inertia (Objects in motion stay in motion) Second Law: Relationship between force, mass, and acceleration 𝐹 = 𝑚 × 𝑎 F=m×a Third Law: Action and reaction forces 🎯 Activity: Real-life examples of Newton’s Laws (e.g., Why do seatbelts protect us?)

Module 3: Energy and Its Forms
📌 Lesson 3.1: Introduction to Energy What is energy? The difference between potential energy (stored energy) and kinetic energy (energy of motion). Examples: A stretched rubber band, a moving car, a falling ball. 📌 Lesson 3.2: Conservation of Energy Energy transformation (e.g., how a roller coaster moves using stored and moving energy). Law of Conservation of Energy: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred. 🎯 Quiz: Identify types of energy in real-world scenarios.
