Free fall / Vector in physics

Free fall / Vector in physics

1. Freely falling objects have constant acceleration

   • Galileo Galilei

2. Many situations approximate free fall

   • Air resistance

3. Position and velocity change differently in free fall

   • Symmetry of motion

4. The acceleration due to gravity is denoted as g

   • g= 9,8 m/s2

5. Freely falling objects are always accelerating

   • Gravity

6. Vectors have a lenght and a direction

   • Representing vectors

7. Vectors are described by their components

   • Resolve a vector

8. Vector components depend on lenght and direction

   • Displacement

9. Vector components can be converted to vectors

   • Magnitude
   • Direction
