Rates of change measure

How quickly a quantity changes over time

Type of rate measured by differentiation

Instantaneous rate

Three quantities linked in kinematic chain

Distance, speed, acceleration

Finding velocity from distance function

Differentiate distance

Finding acceleration from velocity

Differentiate velocity

Integration in kinematic chain moves from

Acceleration → speed → distance

Differentiate distance twice to get

Acceleration

Integrate velocity function to get

Distance/displacement

Velocity at maximum height in projectile motion

Zero

Projectile height function typically involves

t2t^2 (quadratic)

Standard value for acceleration due to gravity

−9.8extm/s2-9.8 ext{ m/s}^2 or −10extm/s2-10 ext{ m/s}^2

Velocity function form with uniform acceleration

Linear (first degree in tt)

Distance function form with uniform acceleration

Quadratic (involves t2t^2)

Must add this when integrating

Constant of integration

How to find constant of integration

Use initial conditions
