Understanding Motion and Velocity in Physics

Delve into the world of physics in this introductory chapter exploring the concept of motion and velocity. Observing various scenarios like a dust particle settling, a basketball dropping, and a Mars lander approaching the surface, you will uncover the principles of motion. The discussion progresses to analyzing coordinate systems, velocity motion diagrams, and more. Referring to engaging visuals and resources, grasp the significance of SI prefixes and scale in physics.
