Physics concepts taught by Harjinder
The Student and Tutor reviewed recent college physics topics, including kinematics, motion diagrams, and lab work on acceleration using motion tapes. They practiced calculating velocity and acceleration from experimental data, and tackled a complex dimensional analysis problem involving astronomical distances and scientific notation. The Tutor recommended regular sessions to keep up with the fast pace of the Student's college course.
Acceleration on an Inclined Plane: g sin θ
Light-Year: An Astronomical Distance Unit
Dimensional Analysis & Unit Conversion
Scientific Notation
Analyzing Motion from Ticker Tapes
The student and tutor reviewed vector analysis, including interpreting motion graphs and performing vector addition in two dimensions. They practiced breaking vectors into components using trigonometry and applying the Pythagorean theorem and inverse tangent for resultant calculations. The next session will cover projectile motion.
Magnitude and Direction of Resultant Vector
Components of a Vector
Vector Addition in 2D
The Student and Tutor reviewed homework from their calculus-based physics unit, focusing on graphical analysis and the application of integration. They then delved into advanced kinematics, practicing how to use integration to find velocity and position when acceleration is not constant, and interpreting position-time graphs using derivatives and concavity. The Tutor assigned five practice questions for homework and planned to begin 2D motion in the next session.
Relating Kinematic Quantities via Calculus
Kinematics with Variable Acceleration
Essential Integration Rules for Kinematics
Position-Time Graphs: Velocity and Slope
Position-Time Graphs: Acceleration and Concavity
The Student and Tutor reviewed previous kinematics homework and graph interpretation, then moved into calculus-based physics. They discussed average versus instantaneous velocity and acceleration, practiced vector operations for change in velocity, and used derivatives to find instantaneous values. The Tutor assigned new problems focusing on these calculus applications, along with continued revision of earlier kinematics worksheets.

Vector Subtraction and Resultant Calculation
The Student and Tutor reviewed concepts of free-fall motion and its graphical representation. They practiced applying the first, second, and third kinematic equations to solve various problems involving displacement, velocity, acceleration, and time. For homework, the Student was assigned two worksheets to reinforce their understanding of 1D kinematic motion and prepare for a new topic in the next session.
Free Fall Kinematics & Graph Interpretation
Systematic Kinematic Problem-Solving
Third Kinematic Equation: Velocity & Displacement
Second Kinematic Equation: Displacement & Time
The session focused on 1D kinematics, reviewing velocity-time graphs and introducing free fall mechanics. Student and Tutor thoroughly discussed the acceleration due to gravity and solved problems using the first two kinematic equations for various scenarios, including objects dropped and thrown. Homework involving 1D kinematics problems was assigned, with plans to cover 2D kinematics and address homework doubts in the next class.
