1. In pairs can you CAREFULLY go through the exam. Can you then write in your book the title 5 Things I have learnt from the exam and then list 5 things you have learnt!

2. Falling!

3. Imagine a dog being thrown out of an aeroplane. Woof! (help!)

4. Force of gravity means the dog accelerates gravity To start, the dog is falling slowly (it has not had time to speed up). There is really only one force acting on the dog, the force of gravity. The dog falls faster (accelerates) due to this force.

5. Gravity is still bigger than air resistance gravity As the dog falls faster, another force becomes bigger – air resistance. The force of gravity on the dog of course stays the same The force of gravity is still bigger than the air resistance, so the dog continues to accelerate (get faster) Air resistance

6. Gravity = air resistance Terminal speed gravity As the dog falls faster and air resistance increases, eventually the air resistance becomes as big as (equal to) the force of gravity. The dog stops getting faster (accelerating) and falls at constant speed. This velocity is called the terminal speed. Air resistance

7. Terminal Speed The dog will continue to fall at constant speed (called the terminal speed) until…………. gravity Air resistance air resistance = gravity

8. Terminal Speed gravity Air resistance

9. Oooooops!

10. That definitely was terminal! YouTube - Moonraker Pre Credits

11. Falling without air resistance

13. gravity This time there is only one force acting in the ball - gravity

14. Falling without air resistance gravity The ball falls faster….

15. Falling without air resistance gravity The ball falls faster and faster…….

16. Falling without air resistance gravity The ball falls faster and faster and faster……. It gets faster by 10 m/s every second (10 m/s 2 ) This number is called “g”, the acceleration due to gravity.

17. Falling without air resistance? distance time

18. Falling without air resistance? distance time

19. Falling without air resistance? speed time

20. Falling without air resistance? speed time

21. Falling without air resistance? speed time Gradient = acceleration = 9.8 m.s -2

22. Falling with air resistance? distance time

23. Falling with air resistance? distance time

24. Falling with air resistance? speed time Terminal speed

25. Falling with air resistance? speed time

26. Let’s try some questions
