2-D Motion Test Flashcards
If a ball is thrown from the same height but with different speeds, the time it will take the balls to reach the ground will be
the same
The magnitude of a ball’s vertical acceleration during the total time a ball is in the air
stays the same, always 0
The velocity that a ball leaves at, it’s initial velocity, is the same as
the velocity that the ball returns to the ground at
The velocity at max height in the y direction is always
0
How much time elapses before the ball hits the ground equation:
square root of 2y/g, or use the 1st kinematic equation
How far is the ball from the launch point equation
x=Vox t
Acceleration in the x direction is always
0
Acceleration in the y direction is always
-9.8
The x component of velocity is always
constant
Y component of velocity _ as it goes up
decreases
At the top the y component of velocity is
0
Y component of velocity _ as it comes down
increases
How much later does it hit the ground? equation
y= 1/2 g t
