Kinematics Flashcards
1
Q
Vectors
A
physical quantities with both magnitude and direction
2
Q
Scalars
A
physical quantities that have only magnitude
3
Q
Displacement (Δx)
A
the change in position that foes in a straight line path from the initial position to the final position, independent of the path takes
4
Q
Average Velocity Equation
A
v = Δx/Δt
5
Q
Acceleration Equation
A
a = Δv / Δt
6
Q
Linear Motion Equation
A
v = vo + at
OR
v^2 = vo^2 +2ax
7
Q
Static Friction
A
the force that must be overcome to set an object in motion
8
Q
Kinetic Friction
A
Opposes the motion of objects relative to each other
