2. Velocity
Velocity is the rate of change of positions. It is measured in m/s [N,E,S,W].

3. Velocity
Velocity is the rate of change of position. It is measured in m/s [N,E,S,W].

4. Acceleration
Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes. It is measured in m/s2 [N,E,S,W].

5. Acceleration
Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes. It is measured in m/s2 [N,E,S,W].

6. Position-Time Graphs Position-Time (d-t) graphs illustrate 1-D motion
0 is reference point
One direction +ve the other –ve

7. Position-Time Graphs Position-Time (d-t) graphs illustrate 1-D motion
0 is reference point
One direction +ve the other –ve
Uniform Motion =
Uniform Acceleration =
Constant velocity
Constant non-zero acceleration

8. Uniform Motion: Interpreting d-t Graphs
The slope of a line segment on a d-t graph tells you the average velocity.

9. Uniform Motion: Interpreting d-t Graphs
The slope of a line segment on a d-t graph tells you the average velocity.

10. Uniform Motion: Interpreting v-t Graphs
The slope of a line segment on a v-t graph tells you the average acceleration.

11. Uniform Motion: Interpreting v-t Graphs
The slope of a line segment on a v-t graph tells you the average acceleration.
