What is Kinematics?

Back

Kinematics is the branch of physics that describes the motion of objects without considering the forces that cause the motion.

What is the formula for calculating distance when acceleration is constant?

Back

Distance (d) = initial velocity (u) * time (t) + 0.5 * acceleration (a) * time (t)^2

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to how fast an object is moving, while velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit time, measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).

Front

What does it mean for an object to be in uniform motion?

Back

An object is in uniform motion if it travels equal distances in equal intervals of time, maintaining a constant speed.

Front

What is the significance of a negative acceleration?

Back

Negative acceleration, or deceleration, indicates that an object is slowing down.

Front

How do you calculate final velocity?

Back

Final velocity (v) = initial velocity (u) + acceleration (a) * time (t)

Front

What is the formula for average speed?

Back

Average speed = total distance traveled / total time taken.

Front

What is displacement?

Back

Displacement is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of an object, along with the direction.

Front

What is the relationship between distance and displacement?

Back

Distance is a scalar quantity representing the total path length traveled, while displacement is a vector quantity that considers direction.
