2. Today Standards 3.1.b,c,d 3.4.c Students will be able to:
Site kinematic equations
Solve constant accelerations problems
Standards, 3.1.b,c,d , 3.4.c

3. Kinematic Equations
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity.

4. Assume constant acceleration
Kinematic Equations
Area = Vit
Area = ½(Vf - Vi)t Vf Vi t
Assume constant acceleration

5. Second Equation
The area under the curve on a velocity vs. time graph yields displacement.

6. Third Equation
Substitute the final velocity from the first equation into the second.

7. Fourth Equation

8. Fourth Equation
