Chapter 10. Motion in Two and Three Dimensions

KEY TOPICS

• Using vectors

• Projectiles

• Visualization Experience

Now that we've discussed 1D motion extensively, I'm sure you're wondering how these equations extend to two and three dimensions. It all comes back to vectors. If you're a little rusty on dealing with vectors, you might want to revisit Chapter 4, "Vector Operations," for a quick review. As soon as you feel confident performing vector operations, you'll be amazed at how simple the transition from 1D to 2D and 3D really is!
