Kinematics of motion in a straight line

Velocity, Acceleration and the Constant-Acceleration EquationsSign up

be able to use the equations for uniformly accelerated motion in one dimension: v = u + at, s = (u + v)t/2, s = ut + 1/2 at^2 and v^2 = u^2 + 2as · be able to apply these equations to problems involving vertical motion under gravity, taking g = 9.8 m s^(-2) unless otherwise specified

Displacement-Time and Velocity-Time GraphsSign up

be able to draw and interpret displacement-time and velocity-time graphs, including the use of gradients to find velocity and acceleration, and areas to find displacement and change in velocity

Kinematics Using Differentiation and IntegrationSign up

understand the relationships v = dx/dt and a = dv/dt = d^2 x/dt^2, and use calculus to solve kinematics problems with variable acceleration in one dimension
