Chapter 8 Modelling in Mechanics

Mechanics deals with motion and the action of forces on objects. Mathematical models can be constructed to simulate real-life situations, but in many cases it is necessary to simplify the problem by making assumptions so that it can be described using equations or graphs in order to solve it. In this lesson you learn about Modelling in Mechanics Constructing a Model, Constructing a Model, Assumptions in a Model.


If you're a student in a school/college that's based in England, you might be entitled for full access to our eLearning platform where you can access to all our tutorial videos and practice questions.

Please check with the head of Maths or deputy headteacher at your school/college to request access if they've already registered to our free pilot subscription. They can always reach us at the below email:
