Kinematics Distance (meters) Displacement (meters + direction) Δx = xf – xi
Instantaneous vs avg. speed/velocity Speed (m/s) Velocity (m/s + direction) – rate of displacement
change Acceleration (m/s2) – rate of change of velocity
The 3 Kinematic equations
There are 3 major kinematic equations than can be used to describe the motion in DETAIL. All are used when the acceleration is CONSTANT.

Horizontally Launched ProjectilesTo analyze a projectile in 2 dimensions we need 2
equations. One for the “x” direction and one for the “y” direction. And for this we use kinematic #2.
212oxx v t at
oxx v t
Remember, the velocity is CONSTANT horizontally, so that means the acceleration is ZERO!
212y gt
Remember that since the projectile is launched horizontally, the INITIAL VERTICAL VELOCITY is equal to ZERO.
Vertically Launched ProjectilesYou will still use kinematic #2, but YOU MUST use
COMPONENTS in the equation.

Newton’s First Law – The Law of Inertia
INERTIA – a quantity of matter, also called MASS. Italian for “LAZY”. Unit for MASS = kilogram.
Weight or Force due to Gravity is how your MASS is effected by gravity.
mgW NOTE: MASS and WEIGHT are NOT the same thing. MASS never changesWhen an object moves to a different planet.
What is the weight of an 85.3-kg person on earth? On Mars=3.2 m/s/s)?
Newton’s First LawAn object in motion remains in motion in a
straight line and at a constant speed OR an object at rest remains at rest, UNLESS acted upon by an EXTERNAL (unbalanced) Force.

Tips:•Draw an FBD•Resolve vectors into components•Write equations of motion by adding and subtracting vectors to find the NET FORCE. Always write larger force – smaller force.•Solve for any unknowns

Newton’s Third Law“For every action there is an EQUAL and
OPPOSITE reaction. This law focuses on action/reaction pairs (forces) They NEVER cancel out
