Motion in 1-D
This is the objects change vs. position.
What is displacement?
The motion of an object that is projected into the air and then is subject to the force of gravity
What is projectile motion?
What is the equation to find velocity?
What is delta x / delta t?
The rate of change in velocity.
What is acceleration?
Physics.
What is the branch of science concerned with using extremely long and complicated formulas to describe how a ball rolls?
This is the objects change in positition.
What is displacement?
The path that the projectile follows.
What is trajectory?
During freefall, an object reaches this (speed no longer changes).
What is terminal velocity?
A quantity that has magnitude and direction.
What is a vector?
Different between speed and velocity.
What is speed is the time rate at which an object is moving along a path, while velocity is the rate and direction of an object's movement?
Equation for displacement.
What is xf - xi
The initial velocity of the projectile, v0, determines the shape of ___.
What is projectile trajectory?
These factors cause an object to slow down.
What is drag and friction?
The quantity that tells us how fast an object is moving anywhere along its path.
What is instantaneous velocity?
The branch of mechanics concerned with the motion of objects without reference to the forces which cause the motion.
What is kinematics?
A comparison between the displacement and the time required for the displacement to occur.
What is average velocity?
The position function is represented by this equation.
What does the integral of the velocity function and the double integral of the acceleration function represent?
The unit used to measure velocity in the imperial system.
What is foot per second or miles per hour?
A quantity that has only magnitude.
What is a scalar?
Who was the first person to attempt to measure the speed of light?
Who is Galileo?
Displacement, velocity, and acceleration can be displayed by this.
The trajectory of a projectile.
What is a parabola?
The four types of velocity.
What is uniform velocity, variable velocity, average velocity and instantaneous velocity?
Velocity is constant.
What does it mean when the system is in equilibrium?
The mascots of the universities that Dr.Wilcox attended.
What is the Michigan State Spartan and the UMBC Retriever?
