Acceleration Flashcards
1
Q
What is acceleration?
A
the change in velocity in a certain amount of time
2
Q
What is the equation for acceleration?
A
Acceleration = ∆ change in velocity / time a = ∆v / t
3
Q
What is acceleration measured in?
A
m/s2
meters per second squared
4
Q
What does uniform acceleration mean?
A
A constant acceleration
5
Q
What is the equation for final velocity?
A
Final velocity - initial velocity = 2 x acceleration x distance
v2 - u2 = 2as
