Physics Course/Motion/Linear Motion

Linear Motion refers to any motion moving in a straight line without changing it's direction Characteristics of linear motion Any Linear Motion travels with different speed at different time v1 at t1 and v at t The Change in Speed The Change in Time The ratio of Change in Speed over Change in Time gives the Accelerarion of the motion From above, speed of motion The distance of motion can be calculated as the area under graph From above Types of Linear motion Horizontal linear motion - Linear Motion with zero acceleration a=0 Linear Motion with zero acceleration a=0 represents a horizontal linear motion, straight line motion moves in the horizonral direction Vertical linear motion - Linear Motion with constant acceleration a=g Linear Motion with constant acceleration a=-g represents a vertical linear motion, straight line motion moves in the vertical downward direction Inclined linear motion - Linear Motion with non zero acceleration a≠0 Case 1 Case 2 Case 3
