Q

Describe Speed

A

A magnitude of velocity which can only be calculated
Every speed calculation = average speed calculation

Smaller the change in time, more accurately the average speed equates to instantaneous speed

(Instantaneous = tangent)

Q

What is the difference between and Non Uniform and Uniform acceleration?

A

Uniform : The speed changes at a constant rate, travelling in a straight line
Non Uniform : speed changes at varying rate OR direction changes (can only be found using gradient of graph)

Q

what is the equation for stopping distance?

A

stopping distance= thinking distance + braking distance

23
Q

what factors affect the thinking distance and braking distance?

A

thinking distance:
* drinking/drugs
* tiredness
* distractions
* speed

braking distance:
* faulty brakes
* worn out tires
* speed

24
Q

how is thinking distance calculated, and describe the relationship between distance and time

25
how is the braking distance calculated and what is the relationship between initial speed (u) and distance?
26
Describe the practical to find acceleration
27
What are some precautions that are taken for the practical?
* preventing risk of electrocution : use a low current * to minimise risk to the surface use something to help the object land * clamp the stand to the desk to prevent falling
28
Question:
29
what happens when a ball is thrown vertically upwards from earth?
* acceleration is constant throughout * the distance travlled upwards= the distance travlled down wards * the intial speed as ball leaves hand=final speed as thrower recieves * time taken to top of tragectory = time takento thrower catching the ball
30
Question: What is the range of the cannon
31
What is the total displacement of the arrow?
A: * the horizontal velocity stays the same * in the vertical velocity, at the maximum displacment- the veloicty is 0 * make sure you label the positive and negative direction of veocity as verically the direction changes * the acceleration is always -9.81
32
33
If A has a greater velocity than B
They both reach the ground at the same time
34
What two factors affect an object’s acceleration?
The force and the mass of an object.

Explain the kinetic energy and velocity of the projectile at maximum height
53
what is freefall?
when a body falls through a medium without any drag producing devices (parachutes) * a= g | only has it's own weight acting
