Motion

Acceleration

KEY KNOWLEDGE

analyse graphically, numerically and algebraically, straight-line motion under constant acceleration

OUTCOME

By the end of this lesson you will investigate the different ways we can analyse displacement data to find the acceleration

Acceleration can be found using the gradient of the velocity time graph and by numerical calculations of changes in speed over time

6. Acceleration

EXPLAIN

Explain what the difference between acceleration and deceleration is

Explain the difference between negative acceleration and deceleration
