37
in mechanical energy ball positions when the ball is at the first and the last position what type of energy is it
potential energy
38
in mechanical energy ball positions when the ball is at the middle/bottom/halfway what type of energy is it
it is full kinetic that transferred over
39
When there are 2 distances in an acceleration question what formula would you use
You would take away final velocity from initial then divide it by time
40
when there is a question asking for distance and there are only distances what do you do
you add them all up
41
what do position time graphs find (vector)
velocity
42
What do distance-time graphs find? (scaler)
speed
43
What do velocity time graphs find?( vector)
acceleration
44
with efficiency questions that have jouls in the question as well mentions ek and ep what do you do
you have to look at the other numbers it gives and to either ep or ek to find the input or output then use efficiency to solve
45
what does increasing acceleration on a velocity-time graph look like
it is a curved line in a smiley face like shape
46
what does acceleration on a velocity-time graph look like
it is in an increasing line that's horizontal
47
in the transfer between kinetic and potential energy where does the energy go
it gets lost to friction
48
what does Magnitude stand for
size or amount
49
what does Interval stand for
the difference between two times
50
Potential energy definition
it stands for energy that is stored
51
what does altitude stand for
the height relative to to sea level or ground level
52
when about to drop something what type of energy does it first have
potential then is transferred to kinetic
53
what does constant velocity on a velocity time graph look like
straight line not increasing or decreasing
54
what does decreasing velocity look like on a position time graph
it is a curved sad face #emo4life
55
when would you use the slope
