What is displacement?
Distance covered by the object measured from point of origin in stated direction
Formula for speed
Change in distance / Change in time
The change in velocity is the rate of change of _____ and acceleration is the rate of change of ____
The change in velocity is the rate of change of displacement and acceleration is the rate of change of velocity
What is air resistance affected by?
- Speed
2. Cross-sectional area of object
What is terminal velocity?
It is when an object falling at constant velocity when force of gravity is equal to air resistance.
Free fall: object acted on by force of ____ only. Uniform _____ of 10 ms-1 increasing velocity
Free fall is an object acted on by force of gravity only. Uniform acceleration of 10ms-1 increasing velocity.
