Motion in One Dimension
... • In the absence of air resistance, all objects fall to earth with a constant acceleration • The rate of fall is independent of mass • In a vacuum, heavy objects and light objects fall at the same rate. • The acceleration of a free-falling object is the acceleration of gravity, g • g = 9.81m/s2 memo ...

... theory only works in a vacuum, however. In the real world many other factors have an influence on the acceleration of a falling object. A major factor is air resistance. The force of air resistance actually pushes upward on a falling object, thus decreasing the acceleration. The amount of air resist ...

Lecture Notes for Section 13.4 (Equation of Motion)
... The second law only provides solutions for forces and accelerations. If velocity or position have to be found, kinematics equations are used once the acceleration is found from the equation of motion. Any of the tools learned in Chapter 12 may be needed to solve a problem. Make sure you use consiste ...

... Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity • A constant acceleration means that the object’s velocity is changing at a constant rate – Example: if the acceleration is along the direction of motion, the speed grows by the same amount in each time interval (e.g., second) • if the speed changes by ...

... REVIEW: Multiplication of a Vector by a Scalar The easiest type of multiplication is that of a vector by a scalar. This always produces another vector. Be careful – multiplication of a vector by a scalar is NOT the same as scalar multiplication of two vectors which is covered in Chapter 6. There are ...
