Physics: Motion and Acceleration

These flashcards cover key concepts from physics related to motion, acceleration, and the differences between uniform and non-uniform motion.

Acceleration

The rate of change of velocity over time.

Uniform motion

Motion at a constant speed in a straight line.

Non-uniform motion

Motion where speed or direction changes over time.

Slope of a straight line

In motion graphs, indicates constant speed.

Curved line on a graph

Indicates changing velocity or acceleration.

Acceleration formula

A = ΔV / t, where ΔV is the change in velocity and t is the time.

Final velocity (VF) formula

VF = √(initial velocity (Vi)² + 2A * distance).

Gravity (GR) effect on motion

Acceleration due to gravity is approximately 10 m/s².

Average velocity (Av)

Total distance traveled divided by total time taken.

Acceleration due to gravity
