Motion in a Straight Line

IMPORTANT

Physics Solutions from Chapter -1 - Motion in a Straight Line

This chapter describes the motion of an object in a straight line. It explains the terms such as position, path length and displacement of an object. We also learn about speed, velocity and acceleration, kinematic equations and relative velocity.

This topic covers concepts such as Average Velocity, Average Velocity when Time Intervals Given, Average Velocity when Distance Travelled Given, Average Velocity in Graphs, Average Speed, etc.

This topic emphasizes acceleration. We will be taught different cases of acceleration along with their graphical representations in this topic. We will know the significance of the area under velocity time graph here at last.

Physics>Mechanics>Motion in a Straight Line>Kinematic Equations for Uniformly Accelerated Motion

In this topic, we will learn simple equations that relate time taken, velocity, acceleration, speed and final velocity. We will also learn how to represent them graphically.
