Kinematics Flashcards
1
Q
Kinematics in one dimension
A
An object travelling in a straight line
2
Q
Kinematics in two dimensions
A
An object travelling on a plane (slanted) surface
3
Q
If the d-t graph is a straight diagonal line…
A
The velocity is constant, so the v-t graph will be horizontal.
4
Q
If the d-t graph is a curve…
A
The velocity is constantly changing, so the v-t graph is a straight, diagonal line.
5
Q
Instantaneous velocity
A
The velocity or speed at any given time
