Kinematics Flashcards
what is displacement
distance travelled in a particular direction
Velocity=
change in displacement divided by time
gradient of displacement-time graph
Velocity
speed, time, distnce,mass are ________ quantities
scalar
displacement and velocity are ____________ quantities
Vector
adding vectors will give you a
resultant vector
lab methods for determining speed
single and double light gate. ticker timer.moton senssor
gradient of velocity-time graph
acceleration
area under velocity-time graph
change in displacement
acceleration of free fall
9.81ms-2
vertical motion use
Horizontal motion use
suvat equations
distance, speed, time
lab methods of measuring speed
1 light gate
2 light gates
ticker tape
motion sensor
difference between distance and displacent
Distance is the total distance travelled
Displacement is distance travelled in aparticular direction
difference between velocity and speed
Velocity is the rate of change of displacement OR the speed in a specific direction
Speed is the time an object takes to travel a set distance
