  • this is very clear. nice job. I'm getting smarter after every video.

  • Nice video, very helpful, but you said acceleration was in ft/s, shouldn't it be in ft/s^2?

  • @khanacademy it has to be 30ft per sec per sec sir, no offense, I'm your die hard fan

  • Does this take into account centripetal force?

  • @3888799 thats the magnitude of the velocity.

  • It's nice to have that intuition.

  • Shoudn't the unit of acceleration be feet multiplied by second inverse two, rather than feet per second?

  • @3888799 nope

  • i have a hw question where they gave me the

    constat speed? is that the velocity

  • i have a hw question where they gave me the c

    onstat speed? is that the velocity

  • Good Job, I like this. please reach me on Facebook, I love what you are doing here. Great job.
