Flipping Physics Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Name: Common Free-Fall Pitfalls Category: Kinematics Date Added: 22 May 2014 - 04:32 PM Submitter: Flipping Physics Short Description: None Provided Yes, there are mistakes that many people make when it comes to free-fall acceleration problems. I dispel many misconceptions and explain both why people think they are true and why they actually aren't. Oh, and there are some special effects too! Content Times: 0:14 Review of the Basics of Free-Fall 1:04 1st Misconception - The acceleration on the way up is positive 2:09 2nd Misconception - The initial velocity going upward is zero 2:45 3rd Misconception - A thrown ball will accelerate faster than a dropped ball 4:00 Reminder - Velocity at the top is zero 4:29 4th Misconception - The acceleration at the top is zero 6:36 Review View Video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
