,
displacement
scalar
, related to velocity,
distance
between initial and final locations no matter how long it took or how much to reach there
speed
&
velocity
av speed
= distance moved/ time taken
velocity
= has direction
acceleration
av acceleration= change in
velocity
/
time
taken
a
negative
acceleration is called
deceleration
or
retardation.
during acceleration,
acceleration
and
velocity
vectors are
same
ways.
during deceleration,
deceleration
and
velocity
vectors are
opposite
ways

= numerically equal to the
distance travelled
Free fall
Falling under the influence of
gravity

Parachute jumping
1. First seconds, the parachutist is falling faster (
accelerating
)
2. As velocity increases, the air resistance will
increase
, (up-forces= weight) which leads to reaching a constant velocity called "
terminal velocity
"
3. When he opens the parachute, the air resistance increases so he slows down gradually (
decelerating
)
4. But decreasing velocity leads to
decrease
the air resistance
5. When he slows down the forces become balanced again, leads to constant
velocity
again "
terminal
velocity"
6. When he touches the ground his
velocity
reach zero in no time
