16
Q

Acceleration tells us

A

How fast an object’s velocity changes

17
Q

Can an object accelerate if its speed is constant?

A

Yes,acceleration is change in velocity

Ball at the top will be acceleration although its velocity will be zero

18
Q

If the acceleration points in the same direction as the initial velocity

A

The objects speed is increasing

19
Q

If acceleration is perpendicular to velocity an objects speed

20
Q

If acceleration is in the opposite direction from velocity that means

A

The objects speed is decreasing

21
Q

If acceleration is at an angle between 0-90 to the velocity the objects speed

A

Is increasing and direction of v is changing

22
Q

If acceleration is at an angle between 90-180 to velocity the objects speed is

A

Decreasing and direction of v is changing

23
Q

Missing a

A

D = 1/2(Vo+V)t

24
Q

Missing d

25
Missing v
D=Vot+1/2at^2
26
Missing Vo
D=vt-1/2at^2
27
Missing t
V^2=Vo^2+2ad
28
A quantity is missing when
It's not given or asked for
29
The slope of a position vs time graph
Gives velocity
30
The slope of a velocity vs. time graph gives the
Acceleration
31
The area under a velocity vs. time graph gives
Displacement Or use Big 5 #1 : d=1/2(Vo+V)t
32
The Big Five is used only
In situations where the acceleration is constant
33
If the horizontal acceleration is zero throughout the projectiles flight
The horizontal velocity will be constant throughout the flight
