Kinematics & Dynamics
2 Studies of Motion
2
New cards
Kinematics
This study of motion describes motion in terms of displacement, velocity, acceleration, and many others
3
New cards
Dynamics
This is the study of force in relation to motion
4
New cards
Gravity
This is a prime example of dynamics in the study of motion
5
New cards
Position
location of the object with respect to the reference point/origin
6
New cards
Displacement
a vector quantity that represents the difference between the initial and final position of an object
7
New cards
Delta
this means ‘change in’
8
New cards
Distance
a scalar quantity that represents the sum of all distances
9
New cards
Speed
a scalar quantity that represents the total distance over time
10
New cards
Velocity
a vector quantity that represents the total displacement over time
11
New cards
Acceleration
the rate of change in the velocity
12
New cards
Acceleration
this term means an increase in velocity
13
New cards
Acceleration
a change in velocity over a time interval
14
New cards
Deceleration
this is referred to as the decreasing of the rate of velocity
15
New cards
Deceleration
When a moving object slows down, the direction of acceleration points toward the opposite direction of its velocity and therefore experiences __.
16
New cards
Velocity-time graph
represents the motion of objects whose velocity is constantly changing
17
New cards
\-9.8 m/s^2
Value of the constant acceleration due to the gravitational pull
18
New cards
Free fall
consists of different objects that are free falling
19
New cards
velocity vs time graphs
can be used to determine displacement
20
New cards
straight
Position vs time graphs discussed consist of __ lines
21
New cards
downward slope
a slope where objects are accelerated when moving down a smooth inclined plane
22
New cards
upward slope
a slope where objects are decelerates when moving up a smooth inclined plane
23
New cards
horizontal plane
objects moving on a frictionless __ neither accelerates nor decelerates
24
New cards
acceleration due to gravity
The acceleration of free-falling objects is therefore called the __
25
New cards
Gravity
attracts all objects with mass inward towards other objects with mass.
26
New cards
speed & exposed surface area
The amount of air resistance force an object experiences depends on the object’s __? & ?.__
27
New cards
free-falling
A __ object is an object that is falling under the sole influence of gravity
28
New cards
FALSE
TRUE OR FALSE: Free-falling objects encounter air resistance.

\
29
New cards
Rectilinear Motion
defined as motion along a straight line, with motion being defined as the change in position over a given time
30
New cards
Time
the progression of events occurring between instances
31
New cards
Velocity
the measured speed measured between two specified points
