What is the formula to calculate acceleration?
Back
Acceleration (a) can be calculated using the formula: a = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.

What is free fall?
Back
Free fall is the motion of an object under the influence of gravitational force only, with no other forces acting on it.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION

Back
Air resistance opposes the motion of falling objects, causing them to fall slower than they would in a vacuum.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What happens to the velocity of an object thrown upward?
Back
The velocity decreases as it rises, reaches zero at the peak, and then increases as it falls back down.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the velocity of an object in free fall after 2 seconds?
Back
The velocity can be calculated using the formula: v = g * t, where g is 9.8 m/s². After 2 seconds, v = 9.8 m/s² * 2s = 19.6 m/s.
