A graphical representation of the x y coordinate plane. 2 units from the origin are marked on the positive and negative sides of the x and y axes. An upward arrow extends from the origin to (0, 2). On screen text, what are scalars and vectors. Caption; woman, this vector's direction is 90 degrees.

Multiplying vectors c. Vector A and Vector B roughly parallel in the same direction. Caption: in the direction of the first vector.

Animation of a circular wheel in motion. On screen Text, Projectile motion A. An arrow indicates same time. Caption: It takes the same time to rise as to fall.

Rotational motion theta equals s over r. Caption: We showed you that equation awhile ago.

A woman is in ski outfits. An animation of a red sphere with on screen text, more inertia, greater mass. Caption: The red sphere has greater mass.

An illustration of the sun and earth in space. On screen text, Find the weight of the pizza pie on the sun. w = m g. Caption, weight equals mass times acceleration due to gravity.
