ACCELERATION Flashcards
1
Q
acceleration
A
rate at which an object changes its velocity (speed and direction
2
Q
terminal velocity
A
The constant speed that a free falling object eventually reaches when the resistance of the medium (i.e. air resistance) which it is falling through, prevents further acceleration.
3
Q
average acceleration formula
- final speed formula (rearranged formula)
A
a= v-u/ t
- v= u + a X t
