Okay, I think I've almost got this M= change in height over change in time squared. No idea about intercept b though. I'll look it up. Thanks for your help. I appreciate it.
Yes, darn it, when I wrote it out I forgot to square the time on the x axis.
I've been giving this some thought
I think I've figured out why the other formula doesn't work. (change in velocity over change in time)
I was dropping a weight from 1900mm and getting 59 hundredths of a second and...
Hi if I understand it correctly, this is the process to find freefall acceleration of a falling body.
S=ut+1/2at^2 Initial time and displacement is zero so,
S=1/2at^2 find acceleration
a=2(S/t^2)
graph for change in displacement over time squared
a= 2(yf-yi/xf-xi) (f=final i= initial)
I...
