  • what is instantaneous speed ?
    it is the speed of an object at a particular instant
  • what is speed ?
    it is the distance travelled per unit time
  • what is velocity ?
    it is the rate of change of displacement

    distance/ time
  • what is the formula of velocity ?
    displacement/ time
  • what is acceleration "?
    it is the rate of change of velocity
  • what is uniform acceleration ?
    it is a constant rate of change of velocity
  • what if the formula of acceleration ?
    change in velocity/ change in time
  • what does the gradient of this graph tell us ?
    velocity
  • what is the velocity of the car ?
    v= 0
  • what is the velocity of the car ?
    uniform velocity
  • what is the velocity of the car ?
    increasing velocity

    decreasing velocity
  • what does the gradient of this graph tell us ?
    acceleration

  • what does the area under velocity time graphs tell us ?
    displacement
  • if two objects of the different masses fell from the same height, which object would fall faster ?
    both objects would fall at the same rate of 10 m/s because of acceleration due to gravity
