Acceleration: Projectile Motion:

-rate of change of velocity with time. -horizontal velocity (always constant)


-tells how quickly velocity changes. -vertical velocity (always changing)
-increases as well as decreases Horizontally Launched:
-greater force, greater acceleration -they have no upward trajectory and no initial
A= change in velocity/ time interval vertical velocity

SI Unit- m/s^2
Speed- tells how fast the object is. (10 m/s)
Velocity- magnitude and direction. (10 m/s N)

Uniform Acceleration:
-Acceleration that does not change in time 
-constant
Example 1
If an automobile with a velocity of 4.0 m/s
accelerates at a rate of 4.0 m/s2 for 2.5 s, what
is the final velocity?
vf=vi+at=4.0 m/s+(4.0 m/s2)(2.5 s)=4.0 m/s+10
. m/s=14 m/s
Example 2
If a cart slows from 22.0 m/s with an
acceleration of -2.0 m/s2, how long does it
require to get to 4 m/s?
t= vf−via=−18 m/s−2.0 m/s^2=9.0 s
Free Fall:
-motion under the influence of gravitational pull
only.
-greater mass, greater gravitational force.
-free-falling obj. do not encounter air resistance
-All free-falling objects (on Earth) accelerate
downwards at a rate of 9.8 m/s^2

Air Resistance:
-force acting on an obj. resisting its motion due
to its surrounding fluid

-directed opposite to its obj. motion

first to theorize that a projectile launched with momentum as smth small and fast

Law of Universal Gravitation: impact.
-everybody attracts other body; every object P(i)=m1v1+m2v2

Centripetal Acceleration:
-change in velocity due to change in direction.
Inertia- tendency to do nothing or to remain
unchanged
-resistance of any physical object to any
change in its velocity. This includes changes to
the object's speed, or direction of motion.
Linear Momentum:
- inertia of motion
-ability of an object to maintain its position
P= mv
-huge ship moving at a small velocity- P= Mv
-high velocity bullet- P= mV
SI unit: kg m/s
-momentum is proportional to mass and speed
-something big and slow could’ve the same
Kinetic Energy:
-energy in motion
-ability to do work (W=Fd)
-KE=1/2mv^2
-higher from the ground higher potential energy
-Gravitational potential energy is energy an
object possesses because of its position in
a gravitational field. The most common use
of gravitational potential energy is for an
object near the surface of the Earth where
the gravitational acceleration can be assumed
to be constant at about 9.8 m/s2.
