At what angle must a ball be launched to travel the farthest?
45 degrees
When is the instantaneous velocity a maximum on graph?
Where the slope is the greatest
How to fid average velocity in graph?
Y2-y1/x2-x1 slope
Instantaneous velocity at time?
Find slope around time
If a ball told off a table, the ball accelerates:
Vertically
In the vertical direction, _____ acceleration and _______ velocity
Constant acceleration
0 velocity
In the horizontal direction, ________ acceleration and _________ velocity
0 acceleration
Constant velocity
In 2 d problems, should be broken into
X and Y components
(Y usually uses X=
X usually d=rt)
Range formula
R= V°^2/g(sin2ø)
