What is linear acceleration ?   The rate of change in linear velocity  
🗑
When acceleration is zero what is velocity ?   Constant  
🗑
What is instantaneous ?   Occurring during a small interval of time M  
🗑
What is average ?   Occurring over a designed time interval  
🗑
What are projectiles ?   The body in free fall that is subject only to the forces of gravity and air resistance.  
🗑
What is the apex?   The highest point in the trajectory of a projectile  
🗑
What is trajectory   The flight path of a projectile.  
🗑
What is the angle of projection?   The direction at which a body is projected with respect to the horizontal.  
🗑
What is projection speed?   The magnitude of projection velocity  
🗑
What is range?   The horizontal displacement of a projectile at landing.  
🗑
What is relative projection height ?   The difference between projection height and landing height.  
🗑
What is initial velocity ?   Vector quantity incorporating both angle and speed of projection.  
🗑
T/F the vertical speed of a projectile is constantly changing because of gravitational acceleration?   True  
🗑
T/F the horizontal acceleration of a projectile is always zero?   True  
🗑
What are the Laws of constant acceleration?   Formulas relating displacement, velocity, acceleration, and time when acceleration is unchanging.  
🗑
What is the relative angle ?   Angle at a joint formed between the longitudinal axes of adjacent body segments.  
🗑
What is Absolute angle ?   Angular orientation of a body segment with respect to a fixed line if reference.  
🗑
What are 3 units to measure angles in ?   Degrees, radian, revolutions or rotations  
🗑
What is the instant center?   Percisely located center of rotation at a joint at a given instant in time.  
🗑
What is angular distance ?   The sum of all angular changes undergone by a rotating body/segment.  
🗑
What is angulr displacement ?   Change in the angular position or orientAtion of a line segment.  
🗑

🗑
What is the radius of rotation?   The distance form the axis of rotation to a point od interest on a rotating body.  
🗑
T/F the larger the radius of rotation the greater the linear distance traveled by a point on a rotating body.   True  
🗑
What is tangential acceleration?   Component of acceleration of a body in angular motion directed along a tangent to the path of motion; represents change in linear speed.  
🗑
What Is radial acceleration?   Component of acceleration of a body in angular motion directed toward the center of curvature; represents change in direction.  
🗑
