02 Dynamics

Dynamics is a branch of applied mathematics (specifically classical mechanics) concerned with the study of forces and torques and their effect on motion, as opposed to kinematics, which studies the motion of objects without reference to its causes. Isaac Newton defined the fundamental physical laws which govern dynamics in physics, especially his second law of motion. Example for equations or models are F = ma. This topic is a rich source for mathematical modeling pedagogy, we speculated has a role to play for cliching the award by UNESCO King Hamad Bin Isa Al-Khalifa Prize for the Use of ICTs in Education 2015 for Singapore. Conservation of momentum in collisions and explosions allowing the prediction of subsequent motion of the objects or particles. Forces exist in pairs and they act in opposite directions on the two different bodies.

Newton's First Law Drone Hover Challenge simulation

Newton's First Law Drone Hover Challenge is an HTML5 JavaScript physics lesson where students control a drone's thrust, compare thrust and weight, and decide whether the resultant force is zero or unbalanced.

The activity helps learners move beyond the common misconception that an object needs a continuous forward or upward force to keep moving. By watching altitude, velocity and force evidence together, students see that balanced forces mean zero acceleration, not necessarily zero velocity.

Elevator phone accelerometer simulation with a person standing on a weighing scale

Interactive elevator phone accelerometer simulation for Newtonian mechanics: this browser-based model lets students use a phone accelerometer or a manual acceleration control to investigate normal force, weight, apparent weight and weighing-scale readings in a lift.

The activity goes beyond a static worksheet: learners observe live force arrows, calculate the scale reading, answer auto-marked questions, receive targeted hints, and generate xAPI/SLS-friendly learning evidence for teachers.
