Analyzing Motion from All Angles: An Intro to Vernier Video Analysis

Vernier Scientist John Gastineau explores Vernier Video Analysis®, our popular app that helps students investigate complex physics concepts using videos of real-world motion. From analyzing the momentum of colliding carts to tracking a basketball in flight, discover how Vernier Video Analysis gives students the opportunity to measure more dynamic and larger scale motion than can be captured by a sensor.

What you’ll learn
• How to use videos students record or find to explore real-world examples of projectile motion, one-dimensional elastic collisions, and energy in simple harmonic motion
• The key features, benefits, and capabilities of Vernier Video Analysis
• Essential skills for using the app effectively, including how to import videos, track moving objects, set the scale for accurate measurements, and interpret the resulting graphs
• Intermediate-level features, such as marking multiple objects, finding center of mass motion, viewing vectors, and creating calculated columns for analysis
• Where to find additional resources to support your use of Vernier Video Analysis in the classroom
