Acceleration and Quick Maths Flashcards
When an object is accelerating its velocity is not what
constant
What is uniform acceleration
when an acceleration is constant
What is acceleration
The measure of how fast speed is changing
What is the acceleration equation for objects starting from rest
a=V^f / t
What will acceleration units always come out to
distance over time squared
What is Inertia
Inertia is a physical property that all objects posses and it causes them to prefer there current state of motion
Inertia is a ______ Mass is a _______
Quality Quantity
What does State of Motion mean
an object moving with a certain velocity
When did the NASA Voyager Launch
1977
How Sp e e e e e e edy is the voyager?
38,120 mph
WHat is Newtons first Law of Motion
In the absence of force an object will remain in its presents state of motion-either at rest, or moving at a constant speed in the same direction
What is the 1st law of motion also refereed to as
Law of Inertia
What is Newtons second Law of Motion
The acceleration of an object is proportional to the force acting on it
What is newton’s second law mathematically expressed in
a=F/m or F= a x m
What is kinematics
The study of distance, velocity, acceleration, and time relationships with no forces being involved
