    Acceleration Due to Gravity Have you ever wondered why items always speed up when they are falling? Well it all has to do with acceleration due to gravity. Acceleration is the rate at which an object changes its velocity. Acceleration can be calculated by finding the change in velocity and dividing it over the time. The equation is: a= ∆v∆t (“Acceleration”) Acceleration is also a vector because it has a direction. The units of acceleration are typically m/s2. Gravity is the force that attracts

    Acceleration Worksheet 3 Worked Example A cheetah running at 20 m s−1 slows down as it approaches a stream. Within 3.0s‚ its speed has reduced to 2 m s−1. Calculate the average acceleration of the cheetah. Solve the following: 1. A sports car‚ accelerating from rest‚ was timed over 400 m and was found to reach a speed of 120 km h−1 in 18.0 s. a. What was the average speed of the car in m s−1? b. Calculate the average acceleration of the car in km h−1 s−1. c. What was

    Calculate the value of t when Q is due north of P. (2) (Total 8 marks) 2. A train starts from rest at a station A and moves along a straight horizontal track. For the first 10 s‚ the train moves with constant acceleration 1.2 m s–2. For the next 24 s it moves with constant acceleration 0.75 m s–2. It then moves with constant speed for T seconds. Finally it slows down with constant deceleration 3 m s–2 until it comes to rest at a station B. (a) (b) (c) Show that‚ 34 s after leaving A‚ the speed

    Lab Conclusion When comparing the average speed results from part two of the lab and the definition of acceleration‚ you find similarities between the two. First‚ average speed is distance divided by time‚ and we use it to describe the motion of an object moving at changing speeds. We can see this from our lab results from the average speed of the marble traveling down the ramp‚ because it picks up speed. When the marble is released at the top of the ramp‚ the ball doesn’t have the same momentum

    ROTATIONAL KINEMATICS‚ MOMENT OF INERTIA | 1. A child is pushing a merry-go-round. The angle through the merry-go-round has turned varies with time according to θ(t) = γt + βt3‚ where γ = 0.400 rad/s and β = 0.0120 rad/s3. a. Calculate the angular acceleration as a function of time. b. What is the initial value of the angular velocity? c. Calculate the instantaneous value of the angular velocity at t =5.00 s and the average angular velocity for the time interval t = 0 to t = 5.00 s. 2. At t

    Finding the Acceleration of a Ball Problem Statement: How does the height of a ramp that is comprised of two parallel rulers affect the speed of a steel ball bearing rolling down it? Hypothesis: If the steepness of the ramp based on the amount of books propping it up are increased‚ then the steel ball bearings’ speed will increase. Materials: 2 wooden meter sticks 1 steel ball bearing 5 workbooks A roll of masking tape A stopwatch A smooth‚ long surface (preferably a table) Procedures: Arrange

    Case Study: Toyota Acceleration Problem 1) For the case study‚ our group‚ The Socratic Triads‚ we have chosen to analysis the ethical issues that are related to the Toyota acceleration problem. The Toyota acceleration problem first came to the light in the media around late 2009. The acceleration pedal of certain models of Toyotas and Lexus were unintendedly accelerating without the driver’s foot on the pedal. It has been reported that the acceleration pedal has been malfunctioning as early as 2003

    time taken to reach 100 km/h for 2000cc mid-size category between Japan cars and Germany cars The line graph shows the information about the time taken for 2000cc mid-size cars from Japan and Germany cars to reach 100km/h. The Japanese cars acceleration was a bit slower than the Germany cars with the same engine capacity. The Honda Accord was clocked at 10.7 seconds when it reached from 0-100km/h. The second car was the Toyota Camry‚ scored a 12.5 second for its trial. The next car was the Nissan
