In the case of constant acceleration, the four physical quantities acceleration, velocity, time, and displacement can be related by using the equations of motion
V→f=V→i+a→t
d→=V→it+½a→t²
V→²f=V→²i+2a→*d→
d→=½(V→f+V→i)t

[edit]In equations, vectors were often represented as bolded letters to distinguish them from scalars. With the appropriate notation disclosed in recent years, arrows are now placed on top of letters to represent vectors. Vectors are mathematical objects that are comprised of a magnitude and direction. The arrow on top of a letter indicates the direction in which the vector is pointing. Additionally, the length of the arrow corresponds to its magnitude.

If you're starting a new article, you can develop it here until it's ready to go live. If you're working on improvements to an existing article, copy only one section at a time of the article to this sandbox to work on, and be sure to use an edit summary linking to the article you copied from. Do not copy over the entire article. You can find additional instructions here. Remember to save your work regularly using the "Publish page" button. (It just means 'save'; it will still be in the sandbox.) You can add bold formatting to your additions to differentiate them from existing content. |
