    Study Notes

    Types of Motion

    • A material point M is an idealization, whereas a real macroscopic body is composed of connected material points.

    Translational Motion

    • In translational motion, all points of the body follow the same trajectory, but are shifted relative to each other.
    • During translational motion, any straight line within the body remains parallel to itself.

    Rotational Motion

    • In rotational motion, all points of the body move in circular paths around a common axis.

    Types of Regular Movement

    • Regular movement can be classified as either straight or curved, depending on the shape of the trajectory.

    Material Point

    • A material point is a body whose dimensions can be neglected.
    • The position of a material point M in space can be determined using:
      • Three coordinates: x, y, z
      • Radius vector 𝒓, drawn from the origin to the material point M

    Radius Vector and Time

    • The radius vector 𝒓 changes in length and direction over time.
    • The radius vector is a function of time: 𝒓 = 𝒓(𝒕)
    • This equation is called the vector equation of motion.

    Vector Equation of Motion

    • One vector equation of motion is equivalent to three kinematic equations of motion of a point.

    Trajectory and Displacement

    • The continuous line described by the material point M during its movement is the trajectory.
    • The length of the trajectory is the path ΔS (scalar).
    • Δ𝒓 is a vector directed from the starting point of the trajectory to the end point, representing the displacement.
