Introduction
This product contains a full set of teaching and learning materials for circular motion,
satellites and universal gravitation.

The following are included in this product:


(1) Eleven pages of teacher/student notes explaining all the relevant topics for this
subject, including universal gravitation, acceleration due to gravity, orbital velocity,
orbital period, orbital height and mechanical energy.
(2) Two sets of exercises for calculating orbital velocity, orbital period and orbital height.
(3) Two sets of exercises for calculating changes in potential, kinetic and mechanical
energy.
(4) Solutions for all of the exercises.
(5) An equation sheet.
(6) Presentations covering all the topics mentioned above.

At the top of the worksheets there is a link to videos from my Step by Step Science
YouTube Channel. If your students need help understanding the concepts or
completing the exercises, they can simply click on the link and watch the YouTube
video where everything is explained in detail. An outstanding resource for students
who are not able to attend class.

This is the second in the series of three products about Gravitation. The two other
products in the series are:
Gravitation: Newton’s Laws
Gravitation: Kepler’s Laws

Thank you again for purchasing this TpT product. I would welcome your review and
comments on this product in my TpT store.
