Explanation:
Reference point and reference frame
To describe the position of an object we need a reference point or origin. An object may seem to be moving to one observer and stationary to another.
Example: A passenger inside a bus sees the other passengers be at rest, whereas an observer outside the bus sees the passengers are in motion.
In order to make observations easy, a convention or a common reference point or frame is needed. All objects must be in the same reference frame.
Distance and Displacement
The magnitude of the length covered by a moving object is called distance. It has no direction.
Displacement is the shortest distance between two points or the distance between the starting and final positions with respect to time. It has magnitude as well direction.
Displacement can be zero, but distance cannot.
Distance and Displacement
Magnitude
Magnitude is the size or extent of a physical quantity. In physics, we have scalar and vector quantities.
Scalar quantities are only expressed as magnitude. E.g: time, distance, mass, temperature, area, volume
Vector quantities are expressed in magnitude as well as the direction of the object. E.g: Velocity, displacement, weight, momentum, force, acceleration, etc.
Time, Average Speed and Velocity
Time and speed
Time is the duration of an event that is expressed in seconds. Most physical phenomena occur with respect to time. It is a scalar quantity.
speed is the rate of change of distance. If a body covers a certain distance in a certain amount of time, its speed is given by
Speed = DistanceTime
Average speed = Total distance travelled / Total time taken
Uniform motion and non-uniform motion
When an object covers equal distances in equal intervals of time it is in uniform motion.
When an object covers unequal distances in equal intervals of time it is said to be in non-uniform motion.
Velocity
The Rate of change of displacement is velocity. It is a vector quantity. Here the direction of motion is specified.
Velocity = DisplacementTime
Average velocity = (Initial Velocity + Final velocity)/2 = u+v2.
Acceleration
The rate of change of velocity is called acceleration it is a vector quantity. In non-uniform motion,
velocity varies with time, i.e., change in velocity is not 0. It is denoted by “a”
Acceleration = Change in Velocity / Time (OR) a = vut
Motion Visualised
Distance-Time graph
Distance-Time graphs show the change in position of an object with respect to time.
Linear variation = uniform motion and non-linear variations imply non- uniform motion
The slope gives us speed
Distance-Time Graph
Distance – Time Graph
OA implies uniform motion with constant speed as the slope is constant
AB implies the body is at rest as the slope is zero
B to C is non-uniform motion
Velocity-Time Graph
Velocity-Time graphs show the change in velocity with respect to time.
Slope gives acceleration
The area under the curve gives displacement
Line parallel to x-axis implies constant velocity-
Velocity-Time Graph
Velocity – Time Graph
OA = constant acceleration, AB = constant velocity, BC = constant retardation
Equations of Motion
The motion of an object moving at uniform acceleration can be described with the help of three equations, namely
(i) v = u + at
(ii) v2 – u2 = 2as
(iii) s = ut + (1/2)at2
Derivation of velocity-time relation by graphical method
Velocity – Time Graph
A body starts with some initial non-zero velocity at A and goes to B with constant acceleration a.
From the graph BD = v (final velocity) – DC = u (initial velocity)…………..(eq 1).
BD = BC – DC……………..(eq 2).
We know acceleration a = slope = BDAD or AD = OC = t (time taken to reach point B).
Therefore BD = at………………….(eq 3).
Substitute everything we get : at = v – u.
Rearrange to get v = u + at.

Derivation of position-time relation by graphical method
Velocity – Time Graph
A body starts with some initial non-zero velocity at A and goes to B with constant acceleration a
Area under the graph gives Displacement =A(ΔABD)+A(□OADC)=(12AD×BD)+OA×OC ……………(eq 1)
OA = u , OC = t and BD = at
Substituting in (eq 1) we get s= ut+12at2

Velocity-Time Graph 4
Velocity – Time Graph
A body starts with some initial non-zero velocity at A and goes to B with constant acceleration a
Displacement covered will be the area under the curve which is the trapezium OABC.
We know the area of trapezium is s= (OA+BC)2∗OC
OA = u and BC = v and OC = t
Therefor, s= (v+u)2∗t ……………(eq 1)
We also know that t =(v+u)a ……………..(eq 2)
substitute (eq 2) in (eq 1) and arrange to get
v2−u2=2as
Uniform Circular Motion
Uniform circular motion
If an object moves in a circular path with uniform speed, its motion is called uniform circular motion.
Velocity is changing as direction keeps changing.
Acceleration is constant
