Acceleration- The change in velocity due to a force
A SKYDIVER JUMPS OUT OF A PLANE… • Describe the skydivers velocity in every second of her fall towards earth.
Velocity vs Acceleration Vf-Vi D A Tf - Ti T V
Write the three equations for velocity and the three equations for acceleration • Velocity: Acceleration:
What words might be used to identify each type of information? • Distance – How Far, Meters • Speed – at a rate of, going, what speed, how fast • Time – how long, seconds • Acceleration – sped up, • Change in velocity – from 0-60mph, increased speed • Change in time – in the first 5 seconds, for 3 seconds.
Expand on this idea • Acceleration is a Result of a FORCE • Force- a push or pull that acts on an object. • What force acts on a skydiver?
Acceleration Units • The Units in Acceleration is or • Acceleration = or - the change in velocity, every second
Acceleration of a Car. • A car accelerates from 0 – 60 m/s in 8 seconds. What is it’s acceleration?
Acceleration of a baseball. • A baseball being hit by a MLB player accelerates at 140m/s/s. How fast is it going after the first 0.01 seconds?
Rocket Science. • How long does it take a rocketship to reach a velocity of 3,300 m/s if it accelerates at 10m/s/s?
