Linearization in Physics

[@daughteroftheking3220]

Just know you are literally saving us, students. I just don't understand why teachers/professors can't be crystal clear in their explanations just like our KZbin eductors. You people deserve the world and so much goodness. Thank you for your hard work. It never goes unnoticed and if wasn't for some of you most of us would never be able to reach where we are today.

Usually teachers are experts in their field but not good educators.. Someone who makes educational youtube videos for fun is always going to be a better teacher than someone who teaches just because its theirs job..

I am doing first year physics at age 76,at University, after 25 years teaching secondary Chemistry. Should have really learnt this long ago but I hate to say that we teachers are not always the best teachers. Thanks for the linerization explanation. Now I hope I can find something that you have done on unc ertainties. I am having total concept loss about all the ucertainty calculations, absolute uncertainty, fractional uncertainty and how they link to these linear graphs. I can doo all the error lines with Excel but confused about linking the actual uncertainty of the ruler I use to measure to the final equation for the line of best fit and then using it to determine a value using the slope of the linearized graph.

Thanks bro. AP physics 2 just started and I've spent too long staring at my homework

[@JayJay-ly4er]

you got this!!

[@susanstjohn6602]

Perhaps you could do a video showing how it is done after the Excell graph completed for the line of best fit, error lines and the y= mx +b equation.

Thank you for being clear and concise

Please don't give up just continue

welcome back

But what if initial velocity is NOT zero can you still just plot "t squared" vs "position" ?

[@TimothyMiceli-y2v]

I just tried this for myself and the answer is yes
