4. Parallel and perpendicular components of acceleration
If a is parallel || to v
change in velocity is along the direction of velocity
effect is solely a change in speed
If a is perpendicular  to v
change in velocity is perpendicular to the direction of velocity
effect is solely a change in direction
The parallel component of a results in a change of speed, while the perpendicular component of a results in a change of direction of v. v1 v2 Dv v1 v2 Dv v1 v2

6. Projectile Motion:
Initial Velocity from initial speed and direction:
a0 is the initial angle of the velocity wrt the positive x axis

7. Other relations for projectile motion:
