Calculating Net Force and Acceleration

Net Force

The difference between the applied force and the frictional force.

Acceleration

The rate of change of velocity with respect to time.

Kinematic Equation

Equation used to describe motion, relating displacement, time, initial velocity, final velocity, and acceleration.

Inclined Plane Problem

A physics problem involving a force acting on an object on an inclined plane, often requiring resolving forces into components.

Final Speed

The speed of an object at a specific point in time or at the end of a motion.

Car Acceleration Problem

A problem involving the change in speed of a car over time, typically using acceleration equations.

Net Force on Car

The total force acting on a car, calculated by multiplying mass and acceleration.

Force Exerted by Car's Engine

The force applied by the car's engine, accounting for net force and frictional forces.
