The motion of an object can occur in one dimension, two dimensions and three dimensions. One dimensional motion occurs along one axis such as x and has only one vector component. Two dimensional motion occurs when an object moves along two axes, such as x and y. Three dimensional motion occurs in the three axes of motion: x, y and z,  which provides the most accurate representation of the reality.

The motion of an object can occur in one dimension, two dimensions and three dimensions. One dimensional motion occurs along one axis such as x. Two dimensional motion occurs when an object moves along two axes, such as x and y. Three dimensional motion occurs in the three axes of motion: x, y and z, which provides the most accurate representation of the reality.

The Main Idea

Two Dimensional Motion is a model to extrapolate the properties of an object moving along two axes, usually x axis and y axis. The properties of an object include it's position, velocity and acceleration. Two dimensional motion has two vector components derived from each axis of motion.

A Mathematical Model

What are the mathematical equations that allow us to model this topic. For example [math]\displaystyle{ {\frac{d\vec{p}}{dt}}_{system} = \vec{F}_{net} }[/math] where p is the momentum of the system and F is the net force from the surroundings.

A Computational Model

How do we visualize or predict using this topic. Consider embedding some vpython code here Teach hands-on with GlowScript

Examples

Be sure to show all steps in your solution and include diagrams whenever possible
