Acceleration is defined as the CHANGE in

velocity divided by the time interval

time it takes for one place to move to another place.

distance divided by the time interval

What is Acceleration?

How long it takes me to win at fortnite

The equation for finding average acceleration is

(final velocity - initial velocity) ÷ time

(initial velocity - final velocity) ∞ time

initial velocity + final velocity + time

initial velocity + final velocity - time

What can be inferred about an object's acceleration if the velocity vs. time graph is a line sloping upwards?

The object is speeding up with positive acceleration.

The object has zero acceleration.

The object is speeding up with negative acceleration.

If the velocity vs. time graph shows a line sloping downwards, what does it say about the object's acceleration?

The object is slowing down with negative acceleration.

The object has zero acceleration.

The object is speeding up with positive acceleration.

The object's velocity is constant.

What does a distance vs. time graph with a horizontal line indicate about the object's motion?

The object is moving at a constant speed.

What can be inferred about an object if the distance vs. time graph is a straight line with a positive slope?

The object is moving at a constant speed.

The object has a positive acceleration.

The object has a negative acceleration.

If a distance vs. time graph shows a curve that is getting steeper over time, what does it indicate about the object's acceleration?

The object has a positive acceleration.

The object has a negative acceleration.

The object's speed is not changing.

Label the following acceleration graphs. Accel. = acceleration pos. = positive neg. = negative

Object is not moving & no acceleration

Object is moving @ constant speed

Object is speeding up = pos. accel.

Object is slowing down = neg. accel.

As a rock in FREE FALL falls through the air, acceleration

decreases until it hits terminal velocity

increases until it hits terminal velocity

What happens to the velocity of a ball as it is dropped off a cliff?

It increases at a non-uniform rate

What is the direction of the acceleration for any projectile?

The direction the projectile is traveling.

At which of the following places does a projectile have the least velocity?

All points have the same velocity

At which of the following places does a projectile have the greatest acceleration?

All points have the same acceleration
