UNIT - 2
Motion in a straight line
✓ Motion: Is the continuous change in position of a moving body, with respect to some
frame of reference.
Uniform motion
✓ Uniform motion: is the motion of a body with steady speed in a straight line.
✓ Distance (S): Is the actual path length travelled by a moving body.
• Distance is a scalar quantity and its SI unit is meter (m).
✓ Displacement (S): Is the shortest path length covered by a body between two points.
• Displacement is a vector quantity and its SI unit is meter (m).
✓ Speed (V): Is distance travelled by a moving body divided by the time taken.
That is, speed = distance travelled V= S
time taken t

✓ Speed is a scalar quantity and its SI unit is m/s.


✓ Average speed: Is the total distance travelled by a moving body divided by the total
time taken.
Average speed = Total distance travelled
Total time taken
Vav = ST
tT
✓ Velocity (V): Is displacement of the moving body divided by the time taken.
✓ That is, velocity = displacement V= S
time taken t

✓ Velocity is a vector quantity and its SI unit is m/s. 1m/s = 3.6 km/hr0tc0
✓ Instantaneous speed is the speed of a body at a given instant of time or particular
position.
✓ Instantaneous velocity is the velocity of a body at a given instant of time or particular
position.

E.g.1. A cheetah accelerates at 3m/s2 for 5s. if its final velocity is 24m/s, determine its
initial velocity?
E.g.2 A runner in area decides to accelerate right up to the moment he crosses the line. He
is initially travelling at 5m/s and accelerates at 0.4m/s2 for 5s. Find
A) The distance from the line when he decides to accelerates.
B) His final velocity at he crosses the line.
E.g.3. An athlete running at a constant rate of 4m/s2 each second covered a distance of
100m, starting from rest. How fast the athlete running at the end of the 100m?
Free fall
✓ Free fall is a kind of motion where the 𝑎⃗ of the object is just due to the acceleration due to
gravity. When an object accelerates under gravity is call free fall.
✓ Free fall is the motion of a body under the influence of gravity alone.
✓ Gravity the force of attraction between an object in the earth’s gravitational field & the
earth itself.
✓ In the absence of air resistance, all bodies fall with the same acceleration regardless of
their mass. i.e. 𝑔⃗ = 9.81 m/s2
✓ Free fall is an example of U.A.M. and we use the same formula.
➢ For a body dropped from some height => U = 0, S = h, a = g
➢ For a body thrown upward => V = 0, a = -g, s =h
E.g. 1 A ball dropped from a height of 4m.
a) How long would it take to hit the ground?
b) what is its final velocity?
E.g. 2 A ball is kicked upwards with an initial 𝑉 ⃗⃗ of 20m/s from the ground How long will it
take the ball to return to its initial position? (Use g = 10m/s
Relative Velocity
✓ Reference from a point from with measurements are taken.
✓ A form of reference refers to a certain point of view observer is stationary or moving at
a Constance velocity.
✓ The laws of motion only apply if the reference from of the observer is stationary or
moving at a constant velocity.
✓ The velocity of an object depends on the frame of reference of the observer.
✓ Relative velocity is the difference between the velocities of two moving objects.
✓ Relative velocity is the velocity of a body with respect to other body.
VRab = Va – Vb ………… if they have the same direction
VRab = Va + Vb …………...if they are moving in opposite direction.
Where VRab – Relative velocity of body A with respect to B
Va – Velocity of body A
Vb - Velocity of body B
