The first derivative of position is

Back

velocity

Front

The second derivative of position is

Back

acceleration

Front

The first derivative of velocity is

Back

acceleration

Front

Position is typically represented as: a(t), f(t), p(t), s(t)

Back

s(t)

Front

The units for velocity could be: m, s, m/s, m/s²

Back

m/s

Front

Velocity can

Back

be positive or negative

Front

If an object's velocity is -10 ft/sec, then it's speed is

Back

10 ft/sec

Front

Units for acceleration

Back

m/s²

Front

When acceleration is positive, that means an object's velocity is: going up, going down, positive, negative

Back

going up

Front

When acceleration is negative, that means an object's velocity is: going up, going down, positive, negative

Back

going down
