The instantaneous acceleration
can be
Stop to think:
This acceleration will cause the
particle to:
a. Speed up and curve upward b. Speed up and curve downward c. Slow down and curve upward d. Slow down and curve downward e. Move to the right and down

Ex.
A ball thrown horizontally at
velocity V
i ,travels a horizontal
distance of R m before hitting the
ground. From what height was the
ball thrown?
(1)
Since ball is thrown horizontally, Vi =Vx There is no acceleration at x direction.ie. R = Vxt, t = R/Vx

An old-fashioned single-play vinyl record rotates 30.0 rpm . What are (a) the angular velocity in rad/s and (b) the period of the motion
?
rpm: revolution per
minute.
1 rpm = 2π/60 (rad)/s
