    Study Notes

    Describing Motion

    • To describe the motion of an object along a straight line, three physical quantities are necessary: position, velocity, and acceleration.

    Dimensions and Vectors

    • One dimension has only one possible dimension.
    • Vectors are needed to describe the motion of an object in two or three dimensions.

    Motion in Multiple Dimensions

    • To describe motion in two or three dimensions, it is necessary to learn vector algebra and how to resolve vectors into components.

    Directional Aspect in One Dimension

    • To take care of the directional aspect of physical quantities in one dimension, a positive or negative sign is used to indicate the direction of the quantity.
