    Study Notes

    Average Velocity and Average Speed

    • The average speed definition is the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken.
    • Average speed is not the same as average velocity.
    • The average velocity is the total displacement divided by the total time taken.
    • When a car travels at two different speeds, the average speed is calculated by considering the distance traveled at each speed.
    • Average velocity is zero if a body travels in a circular path for one complete revolution, because after one revolution the displacement is zero.
    • This concept is used in solving motion problems involving multiple speeds.

    Kinematic Equations for Uniformly Accelerated Motion

    • Kinematic equations relate the displacement, initial velocity, final velocity, acceleration, and time of motion.
    • When objects fall freely under gravity, they accelerate at 9.8 m/s², this is denoted by "g".
    • These equations can be applied to various scenarios involving uniformly accelerated motion.
    • The equations help calculate unknown quantities such as time, displacement, or acceleration.
    • The displacement covered by a falling object is proportional to the square of time.

    Relative Velocity

    • Relative velocity is the velocity of one body with respect to another.
    • It's used to analyze motions where two objects are moving.
    • The relative velocity of two bodies is the difference of their velocities.
    • It is the velocity that one observer sees for another.
    • Understanding relative velocity is critical in situations involving moving objects.
