Kinematics

Objectives

Students Will Be Able To...

Solve for displacement, initial and final velocity, acceleration, or time when given a word problem involving constant accelerated motion
Solve kinematics problems involving multiple unknowns (when do two objects meet/catch each other)
Recognize that the acceleration of gravity at the surface of the earth is a constant value of 9.8
Solve word problems involving objects in free fall (including objects being thrown upward)
Solve for any variable involved in relative velocity. This velocities can be at angles other than 90 or 180 to each other
Solve for the variables of maximum height, range, velocities, and time for projectiles. These projectiles can be launched from an initial height or downward at an angle
