Description
A-Level Maths: Mechanics (Year 1 / AS) is a course for anyone studying A-Level Maths:This course covers everything in the mechanics component of maths A-Level AS content, usually covered in the first year of study (Year 12). The course is suitable for all major exam boards, including Edexcel, OCR, AQA and MEI as well as the Cambridge International A-Level course. It is also a great introduction to mechanics for anyone interested in getting started.The main sections of the course are:Kinematics - the study of movement, where we look at graphs of motion (displacement-time, velocity-time and acceleration-time), constant acceleration formulas (SUVAT equations), projectiles, and how to solve problems involving multiple stages of a journey, and problems involving multiple moving objects.Dynamics - the study of forces, where we look at Newton's laws of motion, forces (and how to model them as vectors), combining force problems with constant acceleration problems, connected particles questions, and problems where the forces change part way through, such as when a connecting string breaks.Variable acceleration - where we look at motion expressed as a function of time, and how to use differentiation and integration to solve mechanics problems.There are also two extra sections at the end. The first is a short video where I show you how to use a Casio ClassWiz calculator to speed up mechanics problems. The second is four extended videos where I go question-by-question through the mechanics content in the specimen papers of Edexcel, OCR, AQA and MEI.What you get in this course:Videos: Watch as I explain each topic, introducing all the key ideas, and then go through a range of different examples, covering all the important ideas in each. In these videos I also point out the most common misconceptions and errors so that you can avoid them.Quizzes: Each sub-section is followed by a short quiz for you to test your understanding of the content just covered. Most of the questions in the quizzes are taken from real A-Level past papers. Feel free to ask for help if you get stuck on these!Worksheets: At the end of each chapter I have made a collection of different questions taken from real A-Level past papers for you to put it all together and try for yourself. At the bottom of each worksheet is a full mark-scheme so you can see how you have done.This course comes with:A 30 day money-back guarantee.A printable Udemy certificate of completion.Support in the Q&A section - ask me if you get stuck!I really hope you enjoy this course!Woody
