How equation #3 translates into the v/t graph
Equation #3 ──── d = V1Δt + 1/2 aΔt²
↓ ↓
rectangle triangle
As the graph above, we know that we have to calculate the area of the trapezoid to find out the displacement. But, in Equation #3, only V1 is usable. We would break down the trapezoid into a triangle and rectangle.
To determine the area of the rectangle, we would multiple V1 (as symbol "a" shown in the graph《Width》) to t2 - t1, which known as Δt. (as symbol "h" shown in the graph《Height》)
It will give us a equation of Area of rectangle = V1Δt
To determine the area of the triangle, we would multiple (V2 - V1) 《Base》to Δt 《Height》divided by 2
According to Equation #1 aΔt = V2 - V1, so, as we sub this equation,
Area of triangle = ½(V2 - V1)(Δt)
Area of triangle = ½aΔt(Δt)
Displacement = Total Area
Displacement = Area of rectangle + Area of triangle (As we sub the equations in,)
Displacement = ½V1Δt + aΔt²

MOTOR PRINCIPLE
1. In this motor model, the power (conventional
current flow) flow though the brushes and connect to
the commutator pin. It causes it to become a DC motor.
According to the RHR #2, the direction of conventional
current flow is shown in the picture which located at the
middle. After using the RHR #2, we could predict the
direction of the force by using the RHR #3. The direction
of the force at the left side is different from the right
side’s, so the cork could spin.
2. Then, after the motor spins half way of a circle, the current flow) flow though the brushes and connect to
the commutator pin. It causes it to become a DC motor.

commutator pins touched another brush (not the brush
that has been touched before the motor spins) that
changed the direction if the current and also the direction
of forces changed, too.
3. After the forces changed when the motor reached
the half way point, the motor continues to spin and
it changed its forces while it meets another half way
point, and it spins more and more that forms a loop.
nicely until there is no power anymore.

RHR 1&2
The right hand rule helps demonstrate the relationship between conductor current and the direction of force. The first right hand rule for convertional current flow is used to determine the direction of current flow in a conductor. The conductor where you right hand's thumb is pointing at, is the direction of convertional. (positive current flow).
In the second right hand rule, the propose is to determine the direction of the magnetic field. The thumb point at the North -Pole.

Notes - Magnetism p.582~589
● Magnetic Field is the repartion of a magnetic force in a region of a magnet.
●We use test compass to measure the magnetic forces within an area or object, instead of the test charge we used in electrostatics.
●Magnet attracts ferrous objects such as, pieces of iron, steel, nickel and cobalt.
●We use test compass to measure the magnetic forces within an area or object, instead of the test charge we used in electrostatics.
●Magnet attracts ferrous objects such as, pieces of iron, steel, nickel and cobalt.
●The magnet repel one another if both magnetic poles are north and north, or south and south ; The magnet attract one another if magnectic poles are difference(dissimilar). <North and South>
●The Domin Theory tells us that all large magnet are constitute by many smaller and rotatable magnet. Those small and rotatable magents are called dipoles. Dipoles can interact with other dipoles to close by.
● Magnetic Domin is created if dipoles are lined up.
●Oersted’s Principle is an important discovery made by Hans Christian Oersted. Oersted’s Principle tells that a circular magnetic field around the conductor is produced when charge moving through a conductor.
●There are two right- hand rules that help us to predict how magnetic force act. Right- hand rules are like physical formula because they allow us to take certain known factors and predict one unknown factor.
●The first right hand rule for convertional current flow is used to determine the direction of current flow in a conductor. The conductor where you right hand's thumb is pointing at, is the direction of convertional. (positive current flow).
●The second Right hand rule is to determine the direction of current flow within a coiled. The thumb point at the direction of the magnetic field within thr coil.

Notes from p.553~563
◎Electrical resistance is a material's opposition to the flow of electric current and it's measured in Ohms (Ω)
◎ Circuit with a boarder pathway and narrow pathway is different by the current flow, there're more current pass though a circuit with a boarder pathway than a circuit with a narrow pathway
◎The resistance of a conductor depends on things such as, its length, cross-sectional area, the material it is made of , and its temperature.
◎Series circuit is the circuit which the loads are connected one after another in a single path.
◎If two or more components are connected in parallel they have the same potential difference across their ends, that's parallel circuit and they are side by side.←◎Georg Simon Ohm is the person who discovered that V/I ratio was constant for a particular resistor. (Known as the Ohm's law)
◎ Kirchhoff's Current Flow us the total amount of current into a junction point of a circuit equals the total current that flows out of that same junction.
I(1) + I(2) + I(3) = I(T) = I(4) + I(5)
I(1) + I(2) + I(3) = I(T) = I(4) + I(5)
◎ Kirchhoff's Voltage Law is the total of all electrical potential decreases in any complete loop is equal to any potential increases in that circuit loop.
Gustav Robert Kirchhoff →↑
Gustav Robert Kirchhoff →↑
◎There is no net gain or loss of electric charge or energy in any circuit with the laws of conservation of electric charge and the conservation of energy, these laws are corresponding to the Kichhoff's laws too.
※ R = Resistance V = Volts (The potential Difference) I = Amperes (Current flow)
