FACTS FORMULA
 * With out friction there would be no acceleration
 * Before you can find acceleration, you need to know the velocity.
 * Velocity is the slope or rate of change of a position function. Velocity is labled in meters/second.
 * Instantaneous acceleration is the acceleration at one point in time or the change in velocity at one moment.
 * Galileo was the first to show that all objects fall to earth with constant acceleration.

a = F/m, where **//F//** is the net force applied to a mass, **m**.
