Equation Invasion
This equation represents how much an object's velocity changes over time.
What is "acceleration is equal to the change in velocity over change in time"?
Vectors are mathematical quantities with these two properties.
What are "magnitude" and "direction"?
The average rate at which gravity changes an object's velocity. It has a magnitude, and direction.
What is "9.8 meters per second squared downward".
A displacement-time graph with a straight, positive slope could say this about the object's velocity.
What is "constant"?
This "infinite well of gravity" has a pull so strong that not even light can escape, giving the well it's name.
What is "a black hole"
"A rock is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 10 m/s. What is it's maximum height?"
What is, "velocity final squared is equal to velocity initial squared plus two times acceleration times displacement."
The "answer" to a vector operation problem.
What is a "resultant"?
These two factors affect the force of gravity between two objects.
What are "the mass of the objects" and "the distance between them."
Having a line in this area of a velocity-time graph would mean that the object is travelling "backward."
Where is "below the time axis?"
This famous scientist is the only known scientist to have won Nobel prizes in both physics and chemistry.
What is, "Final velocity is equal to initial velocity plus acceleration times change in time?"
When adding vectors together, use this method to do it properly.
What is the "tip-to-tail" method?
Standing near this chilly region of the earth will result in your force of gravity being increased, due to proximity to the center of the Earth.
What are the "north or south poles?"
Velocity-time graphs will tell you an object's displacement too; all you have to do is find this.
What is "the area under the graph?"
This recently launched telescope was set to become the "new and improved" Hubble Telescope.
What is the "James Webb telescope?"
The Big Five equations are only useful when this is true.
When subtracting vectors, the general rule is this.
This factor (number) states how much heavier you would feel if you were to stand near the surface of the sun.
What is "300 times"?
When trying to find the acceleration of an object from a velocity-time graph, you would want to "take" this.
What is "the slope?"
This type of energy is created simply by lifting something up against gravity. Good thing too, for without it, skiing and biking would be a lot less fun.
What is "(gravitational) potential energy"?
This equation, used in projectile motion, determines the distance a projectile flies, over level ground, given only the initial speed and launch angle.
What is the "range equation"?
This type of multiplication involves multiplying a vector by a number, and has a very specific name.
What is "vector-scalar" multiplication?
The name of this scientist, who first formalized the study of gravity, as well as motion in general.
Who is "Sir Isaac Newton?"
Translating between motion graphs is commonly considered an "intro course" to this specific area of mathematics, also formalized by Newton in the 17th century.
What is "calculus?"
This physical and mathematical quantity is used to measure "the disorder of the things" like the universe, or gas particles in a room, and is commonly referred to in explanations of why time "is an arrow."
What is "entropy?"
