Translational Motion, Forces, Work, Energy, and Equilibrium

Translational Motion, Forces, Work, Energy, and Equilibrium

by Jared Rovny, PhD

This course covers the material of content category 4A of the official MCAT exam content outline.

Energy is an ever-changing component of our universe, being in continuous shift and exchange. Forces can be described as an exchange of energy between objects when they interact, opening the door for other concepts like work and motion. In order to grasp the complexity of energy exchanges within the human body, as well as the characteristics of motion via bipedal locomotion (walking), a good grasp of Newtonian physics is required.

In this course, students will be introduced to the basics of translational motion, forces, work, energy, and equilibrium. For optimal comprehension, students are required to have a college-level understanding of physics, chemistry, and calculus.

really helpful
By Rox . on 04. May 2023 for Torque and Equilibrium

very informative and helpful and will definitely use for my exams

 
The material is accessible and very well thought out. Thank you for this resource.

The material is accessible and very well thought out. Thank you for this resource. Imagine if we can have clinical material as well for Years 3, 4, 5, and 6 that would be awesome!

 
enjoyed it!

Jared taught a very difficult subject with simple examples to illustrate the concepts.
