Study Notes
Kinematics
- Kinematics studies motion
- Key terms include speed, velocity, and acceleration
- Speed is the distance traveled per unit time
- Velocity combines speed and direction
- Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity
- Uniform acceleration means constant change in velocity over time
- Non-uniform acceleration means varying change in velocity over time.
- Graphs provide insights into motion
- Displacement-time graphs show how displacement changes over time
- Velocity-time graphs show velocity changes over time
- Acceleration can be calculated from velocity-time graphs
- Free fall acceleration is approximately 10 m/s² near Earth's surface
- Units of time can be seconds, minutes or hours
- Velocity, displacement, distance and speed are vector and scalar quantities
Average Speed
- Average speed is calculated as total distance divided by total time
- This assumes constant speed throughout the entire time period.
Average Velocity
- Average velocity is calculated as total displacement divided by total time
- Displacement is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction
- The value in reality of instantaneous speed and velocity differ
