Motion

constant acceleration

Kinematics Equations

Free Fall: gravity is the only force acting

acceleration=9.8 m/s2

2D Motions

Free Throw Shot

Catapult

Spiking a Volleyball

Free Body Diagrams (all forces acting on an object)

Equilibrium: Equal and Opposite forces

W=mg (F=ma)

Angle of Elevation

Trajectory

Air resistance/Drag

Equations

change in v=final v-initial v=acc.*change in t

change in position=1/2(final v + initial v)*change in time

change in position=initial v*change in time+1/2acc.(change in time)^2

final v^2-initial v^2=2acc*change in position

x- & y- components
