Chapter 1 of BearEdu Physics discusses how vectors are used and demonstrates vector arithmetic. Vectors are not the most exciting thing to study in the field of physics but the student must obtain a thorough understanding of vectors in order to learn the material in following chapters.

Chapter 2 focuses on Equilibrium. Based on the knowledge learned in Chapter 1, the student learns how to calculate forces and torque’s required to reach a state of equilibrium.

Chapter 3 explains motion (speed, velocity, acceleration) . Several examples are presented in order to help the student learn about this subject. .

Chapter 4 explains Newton’s Laws, forces, friction, inertia, and weight. Gus the Gorilla demonstrates the basic principles.

Chapter 5 concentrates on work and energy. Work, general energy, potential energy, kinetic energy, power and conservation of energy are explained. Numerous animation’s are used to demonstrate the principles through easy to understand examples.

Chapter 6 discusses momentum and impulse. The Conservation of Momentum and collisions are explained and demonstrated through animation.

Chapter 7 focuses on circular motion. Angular velocity, displacement, and acceleration are discussed in addition to centripetal force and vertical motion.

Chapter 8 is about rotational motion. Moment of inertia, work, kinetic energy, and angular momentum are discussed.

Chapter 9 studies solids and discusses specific gravity, Hooke’s Law, elasticity, and modulus.

Chapter 10 covers liquids. Many topics such as, pressure, Archimedes’ Principal, surface tension, Bernoulli’s equation, viscosity, Poiseuille’s Law, and Reynolds Number are covered.

Chapter 11 explains gases and covers atmospheric pressure, absolute temperature, Charles’ Law, Avogardro’s Number, kinetic theory of gases, and the ideal gas law.
