(14 cards)
Velocity
Change in speed over time
Acceleration
Change in velocity over time
motion is relative means?
an object is considered to be moving or at rest depending on the observer
magnitude acceleration due to the Earth’s gravity?
9.8m/s/s
Does acceleration increase as an object falls?
No it’s consistently 9.8m/s/s
velocity of an object at its peak height
0m/s
Displacement
the change in position of an object
magnitude
size or amount of a physical quantity
Scalar
physical quantity described by its magnitude and has no direction
Vector
physical quantity described by its magnitude and direction
Vector acceleration due to the Earth’s gravity?
-9.8m/s/s
Where does gravity pull?
Down
km/h into m/s
divide 3.6
m/s into km/h
multiply 3.6
