Motion In A Straight Line

- Finding difficulties in memorizing things? Let's learn it in some easy ways.
1
The use of different equations of motion in calculating the different parameters:
The equations of motion are the used to obtain the different parameters from the situations provided for a moving object. All equations are applicable only when the body is uniformly accelerated.

To understand the various points and slopes in a plot of distance-time relation:
The slope of distance-time relation gives the information about the velocity of the body and the nature of graph tells about the uniformity of motion.

To learn and predict the direction of motion using velocity-time graph:
The velocity-time graph predicts about the direction of motion and its acceleration. The following examples will help in predicting the nature of motion just by looking at the graph.
