Topics to revise in preparation for your exam:

MOTION
 Position, distance covered and displacement

Position is a place an object is at or located.


Distance covered is the length covered by the object. Distance is used for finding speed
Displacement is the distance between two points. Displacement is used for finding velocity

 Average speed and average velocity


Speed has a magnitude
Velocity has a direction and magnitude
Avg speed is a scalar quantity
Avg velocity is a vector quantity
Avg speed is based on distance covered and time
Avg velocity is based on displacement and time
Avg speed= total distance/total time
Avg velocity = intial + final velocity/2
 Acceleration
Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes over time
Acceleration= v-u/t
 Motion with a constant velocity
Constant velocity is when an object moves at the same speed in equal time intervals like
5m/s. When velocity is constant than there is no acceleration
 Motion with a constant acceleration
Constant acceleration is when the object constantly accelerates (changes velocity)in equal
time internvals like 2m/s2.
 Applications of “suvat” equations
motion

V=u+at
V2=U2 +2as
S=V+U/2 x t
S= Ut + 1/2at2

free fall

v=gt
v2=2gh
h=1/2gt2
h=v/2 x t
 Position-time, velocity-time, and acceleration-time graphs of motion
Position time graph- slope= velocity
Velocity time graph- slope= acceleration
Velocity time graph- area= displacement
Acceleration time graph- area= change in velocity
In a position time graph if object is accelerating then there should be a curve, and if the
object has a constant velocity than straight line, and if it stops then horizontal line

In Velocity time graph is the graph is straight then the acceleration is constant

FORCE
 Newton’s first law of motion (Fnet=0)
The velocity of an object remains constant unless a force is acted upon it, this is also
called inertia. For example, is a ball with 0 velocity is on the ground, its velocity is constant
unless a force is acted on it. If I kick the ball the balls velocity doesn’t remain constant
because a force has been enacted on it.
 Newton’s second law of motion (Fnet=ma)
The force of an object is the mass of an object times its acceleration, F=ma.
Fnet= sum of forces in direction of motion – sum of force in opposite direction of motion
 Newton’s third law of motion (Action & Reaction)’
If object A applies a force of object b, object B applies an equal and opposite force back to
object A. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
 Terminal velocity
When an object is released from free fall he accelerates, and as he accelerates, the air
resistance increases. The point at which the acceleration and air resistance become equal
the object will be moving in a constant velocity which is also called terminal velocity
