Q
What is the equation for gradient?
A
gradient = vertical difference between two points on a graph / horizontal difference between the same two points
2
Q
What is the equation for speed?
A
speed(m/s) = distance(m) / time taken(s)
3
Q
What is the equation for acceleration?
A
acceleration(m/s(squared)) = change in velocity (m/s) / time taken (s)
4
Q
what is the letter equation for acceleration?
A
a = v-u / t
5
Q
what does a, v, u , t stand for?
A
a = acceleration v = final velocity u = intial velocity t = time taken for the change of velocity
6
Q
what equation is acceleration related to ?
A
(final velocity) squared - (initial velocity) squared = 2 x acceleration x distance
