relating to gravity. A capital G indicates the gravitational constant‚ as explained in the article GRAVITATION. A lower-case g stands for the acceleration imparted by gravity at the earth’s surface. An acceleration of 1 g is 32. 1 feet per second per second (9.8 m/s2). Fliers and astronauts may experience accelerations many times larger than 1 g. These accelerations are usually expressed in multiples of g‚ such as 2g‚ 3g‚ etc. For example‚ when the speed of a space vehicle increases 96.3 feet per second

Introduction The purpose of this section is to introduce the concepts of displacement‚ velocity‚ and acceleration. For the sake of simplicity‚ we shall restrict our attention to 1-dimensional motion. Displacement Consider a body moving in 1 dimension: e.g.‚ a train traveling down a straight railroad track‚ or a truck driving down an interstate in Kansas. Suppose that we have a team of observers who continually report the location of this body to us as time progresses. To be more exact‚ our observers

set number 1- Palak Sharma Distance a scalar quantity that refers to “how much ground an object has covered” during its motion. Formulas used: Newtons laws are: (1) Every object moves in a straight line unless acted upon by a force. (2) The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force exerted and inversely proportional to the object’s mass. (3) For every action‚ there is an equal and opposite reaction. Formulas used: F=ma Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to
