UAPM - Langerphysics
Universally accelerated particle model
Term | Definition |
---|---|
Acceleration | Basic: Change in motion Advance: Change in velocity with respect to time |
deceleration | slow down |
instantaneous velocity | velocity at a specific moment of time |
[m/s2] | meters per second (squared) - units of acceleration |
Equation for acceleration | a = (Vf-Vi)/t |
Equation for velocity | v = x/t |
Slope of x-t graph | Velocity |
Slope of v-t graph | acceleration |
Scalar | quantity like mass, distance, speed, |
vector | quantity like displacement, velocity, acceleration, force |
acceleration due to gravity | 9.8 m/s2..... for quick math use 10 m/s2 |
free fall | ignoring air resistance when falling due to gravity |
