Systems of equations involve multiple equations with multiple variables that are solved simultaneously to find their values. In physics, systems of equations are often used to solve problems involving multiple unknowns.
Kinematics Equations: These are mathematical formulas used to describe motion in terms of displacement, velocity, acceleration, and time.
Conservation Laws (e.g., conservation of energy): Principles stating that certain properties remain constant in isolated systems.
Vector Components: Breaking down vectors into their horizontal and vertical parts for easier analysis.
