This is part two of a brief lecture that shows how to derive the equations of motion for an object in freefall under constant acceleration and how to use Euler's method to approximate motion when drag is introduced.

This initial idea was simple. To make small simple physics lectures that present a concept from three angles; theory, simulation and experiment. Depending on the learning style of the student at least one of these angles should teach them something about the concept.
