The Student and Tutor reviewed position-time graphs, focusing on interpreting slopes to determine motion (forward, backward, stopped) and calculating average and instantaneous velocities. They also touched upon curved graphs related to acceleration and practiced using kinematic equations for free-fall problems, with the Tutor planning to send additional practice worksheets.

The Student and Tutor worked through various problems related to waves and simple harmonic motion, covering topics such as wave properties, energy in SHM, period and frequency calculations for springs and pendulums, and graphing motion characteristics. The Tutor mentioned potential future session scheduling challenges due to academic commitments.

The tutor and student reviewed concepts of angular momentum, including its definition, the impulse-momentum theorem, and the conservation of angular momentum. They practiced applying these principles through various physics problems involving collisions, rotational and translational motion, and orbital mechanics.

The Tutor and Student practiced balancing nuclear reactions and calculating half-lives of isotopes. They worked through various problems involving uranium decay, determining the age of rock samples, and calculating the remaining amount of radioisotopes after specific time periods. The session concluded with a discussion of nuclear fission and fusion reactions, with the student to practice balancing additional equations.

The Student and Tutor reviewed concepts of circular motion, including tangential and centripetal acceleration, and their dependence on radius and angular velocity. They then worked through several physics problems involving rotational dynamics, torque, moment of inertia for different shapes, and linear/angular kinematics, emphasizing problem-solving strategies and the importance of sign conventions.

The Tutor and Student worked through various problems related to radioactive decay and nuclear physics, including half-life calculations and determining remaining isotope fractions. They then transitioned to applying Newton's laws and vector addition to solve problems involving forces, friction, and systems like the Atwood machine. The session concluded with a review of these concepts, preparing the Student for an upcoming test.
