NOTE

For small time, we can also define instantaneous speed ds

.

Slope of distance time curve will give us the magnitude of speed.

Velocity is a vector quantity, so it can be zero, negative or positive. It can be defined in two way.

Example-1A body starts with speed ‘u’ under acceleration of ‘t’ where is a constant and ‘t’ is time. Its speed aftertime ‘t’ is

[a] u + t² [b] u + t² [c] u + 2t

[d] u + 2t²

Solution :Since ‘a’ is not uniform, so we cannot use the Newton’s equation of motion

MOTION IN 1-DIMENSION(Straight Line Motion)

“If a body is moving in a straight line and its direction is not changing, then its displacement will be equal todistance”.

The above concept can be understood in following way (Straight line distance = displacement).

sn–1

sn

Let s1 = distance travelled in 1s

s2 = distance travelled in 2s

s3 = distance travelled in 3s

sn–1 = distance travelled in (n–1)s

an = distance travelled in ns

Now let th1s = distance travelled in 1st s

nd2s = distance travelled in 2nd s

rd3s = distance travelled in 3rd s

thns = distance travelled in nth s

MOTION UNDER GRAVITY :

As we all know earth attracts every particle/body towards its centre. The force of attraction due to earth iscalled Gravity and acceleration produced due to it is called acceleration due to gravity. It is always towardsthe centre of gravity i.e. downwards thats why we always consider it negative.

Since a = –g = constant so we can use all 3 Newton’s equations :

Case-1 : A block / ball is dropped from a building

“When a body is moving in 2-dimensional space i.e. may be in x–y or x–z ory–z plane then its motion is called 2-D motion”.

Newton’s all 3 equation of motion are valid in motion in plane also.

We should apply these equation in 1-D at a time. Following are the possible cases of 2-D. Which can also besaid as projectile motion.

NOTE

Whenever you have equation of trajectory ofprojectile you can put y = 0, then x = R

You can also take first quantity common, then equation will be like x

y x tan 1R

and you

can easily calculate range of projectile.
