Physics Kinematics: Motion in a Straight Line - Speed-Time and Velocity-Time Graphs

The video covers Module 1 Kinematics, focusing on motion in a straight line. It explains speed time and velocity time graphs, highlighting their differences and uses. Through a narrative involving Vector Man, the video illustrates concepts like acceleration, displacement, and velocity. It also distinguishes between average and instantaneous velocity, providing practical examples and a sample question to reinforce learning.

What is the significance of speed time graphs in physics?

Describe the motion of the escapee as depicted in the speed time graph.

Explain how acceleration is calculated from a velocity time graph.

What does a negative acceleration indicate in the context of the velocity time graph?

How is displacement determined from a velocity time graph?

What are the differences between average velocity and instantaneous velocity?

Describe the motion of the toy car as it moves up and down the incline.

What is the importance of understanding the sign convention in kinematics?

What role does gravity play in the motion of the toy car on the incline?

How can the area under a velocity time graph be interpreted?
