    Study Notes

    Motion in a Straight Line

    • Rest: An object is at rest if its position does not change relative to its surroundings over time. Examples include a book on a table, a person sitting.

    • Motion: An object is in motion if its position continuously changes relative to its surroundings over time. Examples include insects crawling, water flowing.

    • Rectilinear Motion: Motion along a straight line. Example: A sliding body on an inclined plane.

    • Circular Motion: Motion in a circular path. Example: A string whirled in a circular loop.

    • Oscillatory Motion: Motion back and forth about a fixed point. Example: A pendulum.

    • One-Dimensional Motion (1-D): Motion that requires only one coordinate to specify the object's position.

    • Two-Dimensional Motion (2-D): Motion that requires two coordinates to specify the object's position, occurring in a plane. Example: A satellite orbiting Earth.

    • Three-Dimensional Motion (3-D): Motion requiring three coordinates to specify the object's position. Example: A butterfly flying in a garden.

    • Point Object: An object whose size is significantly smaller than the distance it travels in a reasonable time. Example: Earth in its orbit.

    • Position: The location of an object.

    • Path Length/Distance: The total length of the path covered by an object. It is a scalar quantity.

    • Displacement: The change in position of an object in a specific direction, calculated as the difference between the final and initial positions. It is a vector quantity, having both magnitude and direction

    • Speed: The distance travelled per unit time, a scalar quantity.

    • Velocity: The rate of change of position (displacement) per unit time, a vector quantity.

    • Average Speed: Total distance traveled divided by the total time taken.

    • Average Velocity: Total displacement divided by the total time taken.

    • Instantaneous Speed: The speed at a particular instant, found by taking the limit of average speed as the time interval approaches zero.

    • Instantaneous Velocity: The velocity at a particular instant, found by taking the limit of average velocity as the time interval approaches zero.

    • Acceleration: The rate of change of velocity over time. A vector quantity.

    • Uniform Acceleration: The acceleration remains constant over time.

    • Non-uniform Acceleration: Acceleration changes over time.

    • Kinematic Equations: Equations describing motion under constant acceleration.

    Other Concepts

    • Displacement-time graph: A graph showing the relationship between displacement and time.
    • Velocity-time graph: A graph showing the relationship between velocity and time.
