    Understanding Kinematic Graphs and Instantaneous vs. Average Acceleration

    Homework Statement A particle moves along the x-axis with velocity vx = (9.7 m/s2)t - 6.0 m/s. (b) Sketch vx versus t over the interval 0 < t < 10 s. (Do this on paper. Your instructor may ask you to turn in this work.) (c) How do the instantaneous accelerations at the middle of each...

    How Can an Astronaut Determine Falling Object Acceleration on the Moon?

    Homework Statement You are an astronaut doing physics experiments on the moon. You are interested in the experimental relationship between distance fallen, y, and time elapsed, t, of falling objects dropped from rest. You have taken some data for a falling penny, which is represented in the...
