Answers are rounded to the least precise unit of the numbers provided
True or False: Negative acceleration is the same as deceleration
False. Negative acceleration is acceleration in the negative direction of the chosen coordinate system while deceleration is acceleration in the opposite direction of motion
(SUVAT) v =…
v = u+at
(SUVAT) v^2 =…
v^2 = u^2+2as
(SUVAT) s =…
s = t/2(u+v)
= ut+1/2at^2
= vt-1/2at^2
Explain how to find the distance/displacement from the speed/velocity-time graph
The area formed by the shape of the journey is the distance/displacement
Explain how to find the acceleration from the speed/velocity-time graph
The gradient is the acceleration
Recall the equation for change in direction
Vector b - Vector a
Identify the trig function for the horizontal component
The trig function for the horizontal component is cosine
Identify the trig function for the vertical component
The trug function for the vertical component is sine
W =…
W=mg
F =…
F=ma
On a slant, recall whether mg*sin(theta) is perpendicular or parallel to the object
mg*sin(theta) is parallel
On a slant, recall whether mg*cos(theta) is perpendicular or parallel to the object
mg*cos(theta) is perpendicular
