What is directional information (vectors have, scalars do not)?
One of the three basic kinematic equations.
What is...
a) d=vit+1/2at^2
b) vf^2=vi^2+2ad
c) vf=vi+at
The simplified form of (√n)d/nd.
What is 1/√n?
The general form of the power rule.
What is d/dx (ax^n) = (an)x^(n-1)?
The SI base units for distance, time, and mass.
What are meters, seconds, and kilograms?
The man famous for inventing calculus and his three laws of motion.
Who is Isaac Newton?
The equation we would use to find x for the expression 3x^2 -5x +13=0.
What is the quadratic equation?
The three rules you will be expected to know regarding derivates and integrals in PHYS 112.
What are the power rule, constant rule, and the sum rule?
The physical phenomenon of particles moving from high concentration to low concentration, maximizing entropy in a system.
What is diffusion?
The angle at which horizontal range is maximized.
What is 45 degrees to the horizontal?
What are the inverse to the positive power 1/x^-n and the numerator power of the denominator root (b'th(x))^a?
The graphical interpretations of the derivative and the integral.
What are instantaneous slope and area under the curve?

What is the solid-liquid boundary and non-traditional phases of matter (condensed matter physics)?
One of the two most important things to remember when solving a projectile motion problem.
What is...
a) 2d can be represented as 1d motion, but we must always consider the x variable and y variables independent of each other. The only exception is time.
b) Any motion that moves at some angle, diagonally, can be decomposed into its x and y components with trig.
