Take note of the missing variable for each equation, these don't have to be memorized since they are clearly derived from one root function. | Take note of the missing variable for each equation, these don't have to be memorized since they are clearly derived from one root function. | ||

When an object is in free fall, gravity is the only force affecting the object. Useful for narrowing forces for calculation. | When an object is in free fall, gravity is the only force affecting the object. Useful for narrowing forces for calculation. | ||
