Acceleration Flashcards
1
Q
What is the formula for acceleration?
A
Acceleration (m/s2) = (Change in Velocity (m/s) ) ÷ Time (s)
a = (v - u) ÷ t
2
Q
How do you calculate uniform / constant acceleration?
A
v2 - u2 = 2ax
v = Final Velocity (m/s) u = Initial Velocity (m/s) a = Acceleration (m/s2) x = Distance (m)
3
Q
What is acceleration?
A
The change in velocity in a certain amount of time.
4
Q
What is the acceleration in free fall?
A
10 m/s2
