Calculation Science
Question | Answer |
---|---|
A squirrel climbing a tree at a rate of 2 m/s | Both |
A skater is halfway down a ramp, moving at 8 mph | Kinetic Energy |
A bird is flying at a velocity of 8 m/s | Both |
What’s the difference between speed and velocity | speed- how fast something is going velocity- speed with direction |
Units for Speed | km/hr; m/s |
Units for Velocity | km/hour SOUTH or m/s EAST |
how to calculate speed | S = D/T |
Acceleration | is how quickly an object changes its VELOCITY |
Deceleration | is how quickly an object is decreasing its speed |
CALCULATE Acceleration | velocity divided by time time |
CALCULATE Distance | velocity times time |
CALCULATE Velocity | distance divided by time |
CALCULATE Time | distance divided by velocity |
examples of acceleration | Speeding up, changing direction |
examples of deceleration | Slowing down |
When you CHANGE DIRECTIONS you are actually accelerating. Why? | acceleration happens whenever your VELOCITY changes. |
