1 LESSON 2.1 LINEAR MOTION Introduction Linear motion is the motion a straight line and the movement in a direction where forwards is positive and backwards is negative. Kinematics is the section of physics which studies the motions of objects without considering the effects that produce the motion. The study generally involves the analysis of the position of an object in relation to time. Dynamics is the section of physics which studies the causes of motion of an object. Distance,d and Displacement, s Distance,d is how far a body travels during a motion without considering any particular direction or the length of the path of an object. Distance is a scalar quantity and the value always positive. The unif of distance is metre (m) Displacement, s is distance traveled in a particular direction. Displacement,s = final position initial position Displacement is a vector quantity and the value can be positive and negative depend on their directions. The unif of dispacement is metre (m) Diagram below shows the difference between distance and displacement. Speed and Velocity,v Speed is the rate of change of distance. Speed = distance travelled time taken Average speed = total distance traveled total time taken Speed is a scalar quantity and the value always positive. The unif of speed is metre per second (m s -1 ) Velocity is the rate of change of displacement. Velocity = displacement time taken v = s t Average velocity = total displacement total time taken Velocity is a vector quantity and the value can be positive and negative depend on their directions. The unif of velocity is metre per second (m s -1 ) If an object moves in a circle with constant speed, it has different velocities at different points along the circle because the direction and hence the velocity of the object is always changing as shown in the following diagram. Acceleration,a and Decelaration(Retardation) Distance = Length of the road Displacement = Length of the line AB If the motion in a straight line and in one direction, the magnitude of distance is same as the magnitude of displacement. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Acceleration = change in velocity time taken Acceleration = final velocity initial velocity time taken a = v - u t Negative is called as deceleration (retardation) Acceleration is a vector quantity The unif of or deceleration is metre per second per second (ms -2 ) 1

2 Extra notes 1 uniform = constant = same 2 increasing velocity = 3 decreasing velocity (slow down) = deceleration 4 zero velocity = the object is stationary (at rest) 5 negative velocity = the object moves in opposite direction 6 uniform velocity = zero 7 negative = deceleration (retardation) Example 1 A boy walks finish the following path PQ.
