CP PHYSICS ACCELERATION PROBLEMS
There are four equations used to work constant acceleration problems. The equation used depends on the information provided and what the problem asks us to solve for.
EQUATIONS VARIABLES
vf = vo + at vo vf a td = ½ (vf + vo)t vo d vf td = vot + ½ at2 vo d a t
vf2 = vo2 + 2ad vo d vf a

vf = ___________________________________________ unit: ___________
a = ___________________________________________ unit: ___________
t = ___________________________________________ unit: ___________
Falling Objects
Objects that fall through the air do so because of the force of gravity acting on them. Gravity causes them to accelerate as they fall. On Earth gravity has a constant value = __________________. When solving acceleration problems with falling objects, keep the following points in mind:
1. The symbol for acceleration due to gravity = _____ and replaces a in all accelerationequations.
2. The instant an object starts falling it has a vo = 0 m/s. This is true for all falling objectsat all times.
