Concepts
Speed and velocity
- Average speed — p.1, p.2
- Sign convention — p.1
- Average velocity — p.1
- Position-time graph — p.2
- Instantaneous velocity — p.2, p.3
- Instantaneous speed — p.3
Acceleration
- Average acceleration — p.4
- Instantaneous acceleration — p.4
- Kinematic equations — p.5
- Free fall — p.5, p.6
Measurement
- Measurement resolution — p.3
- Measuring g by free fall — p.6, p.7
- Stroboscopic measurement — p.7
What I learned
This is my learning, that the value of h and t can be used to calculate the value of g from experiments.
I learned how they would calculate the value of g. How the vision based system can be used to measure the distance between two frames, which can help to get the speed, and if speed is known in some case then that can be used to get the depth from camera, is what I learned.
