Document Summary

2-d vector: a = ax + ay magnitude of a: a = pa2. R = n a + m b x + a2 y. R ( r f r i) = x i + y j + z k. V av = vav,x i + vav,y j + vav,z k. V = vx i + vy j + vz k. A av = aav,x i + aav,y j + aav,z k. A = ax i + ay j + az k. A = ax i + ay j direction ccw from x axis: = tan 1 ay. R = (nax + mbx) i + (nay + mby) j. Kinematic equations of motion for constant acceleration: vx = v0x + axt. Free-fall acceleration g = 10 m/s2 w fg = mg. Centripetal acceleration: a c = v2 r r = 2r r s = r v = r. R = [v0tcos + x0] i + [(v0tsin 1.
