Equation of motion

Let us learn about equation of motion

Motion is change of location or position of an object with respect to time. Change in motion is the result of an applied force. Motion is typically described in terms of velocity also seen as speed, acceleration, displacement, and time

Problems on bodies moving with CONSTANT acceleration can be solved quickly using the equation of motion. There are 4 equations:

  1. v = u + at
  2. s = 0.5(u+v)t
  3. s = ut + 0.5 at2
  4. v2 - u2 = 2as

The variable quantities in a uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion are time, speed, distance covered and acceleration. Simple relations exist between these quantities. These relations are expressed in terms of equations called equations of motion

In our next blog we shall learn about "carbanion"

I hope the above explanation was useful.Keep reading and leave your comments.
