Task 1 - Do now
Recap questions - 2 easy and one hard.
Challenege yourself.
Complete all the questions on the companion sheet
Task 2 -Intro Video
Task 2 -Intro Video
Watch the video to learn how we can use scale drawings to find the resultant of 2 forces acting on an object.
Then answer the questions on the comapnion sheet
The practise by drawing the example from the presentation below.
Task 3 - Get your bearings!
Task 3 - Get your bearings!
A 'bearing' is an angle measured clockwise from the north direction.
For example, in the image above, the vector (the dark blue arrow) is at a bearing of 140°, because it's 140° clockwise from north.
Use a scale drawing and protractor to complete the task on the companion sheet.
