Study Notes
Types of Motion
- Rectilinear Motion: Motion along a straight line
- Circular Motion: Motion along a circular path
- Rotational Motion: Motion around a fixed axis
- Periodic Motion: Motion that repeats itself at regular intervals
Description of Motion
- Distance: Total length of path covered by an object
- Displacement: Shortest distance between initial and final positions
- Speed: Rate of change of distance
- Velocity: Rate of change of displacement
- Acceleration: Rate of change of velocity
Time
- Interval: Time between two events
- Period: Time taken by an object to complete one oscillation or rotation
- Frequency: Number of oscillations or rotations per unit time
Graphical Representation
- Distance-Time Graph: Shows distance traveled by an object over time
- Velocity-Time Graph: Shows velocity of an object over time
- Acceleration-Time Graph: Shows acceleration of an object over time
Equations of Motion
- v = u + at: Velocity of an object at time t, where u is initial velocity, a is acceleration, and t is time
- s = ut + (1/2)at^2: Displacement of an object at time t, where u is initial velocity, a is acceleration, and t is time
- v^2 = u^2 + 2as: Velocity of an object after displacement s, where u is initial velocity, a is acceleration, and s is displacement
Types of Motion
- Rectilinear motion occurs along a straight line.
- Circular motion follows a circular path.
- Rotational motion revolves around a fixed axis.
- Periodic motion repeats itself at regular intervals.
Description of Motion
- Distance is the total length of the path covered by an object.
- Displacement is the shortest distance between an object's initial and final positions.
- Speed is the rate of change of distance.
- Velocity is the rate of change of displacement.
- Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
Time
- Time interval is the time between two events.
- Period is the time taken by an object to complete one oscillation or rotation.
- Frequency is the number of oscillations or rotations per unit time.
Graphical Representation
- A distance-time graph displays the distance traveled by an object over time.
- A velocity-time graph shows the velocity of an object over time.
- An acceleration-time graph illustrates the acceleration of an object over time.
Equations of Motion
- The velocity of an object at time t is calculated as v = u + at, where u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.
- The displacement of an object at time t is calculated as s = ut + (1/2)at^2, where u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.
- The velocity of an object after displacement s is calculated as v^2 = u^2 + 2as, where u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and s is the displacement.
