This second tutorial introduces the basics of modelling motion under the influence of an external force by using acceleration. It then goes on to give an outlook on how the connection between acceleration, velocity and position forms a route to animation.
This first tutorial describes the basic relationship between force and acceleration that everybody who seriously wants to get a start on game-physics should be aware of. It then goes on to introduce a common approach to modelling simple motion.
