Chapter 2:
Kinematics in One Dimension
Describing motion in one dimension.
2.1 - Position & Displacement
Focuses on 1D motion, reinforces vectors in simple context, introduces position-time graphs.
Get Early Access2.2 - Velocity
Average vs. instantaneous velocity, connects to the slope of x-t graphs.
Get Early Access2.3 - Acceleration
Define acceleration and connect to the slope of v-t graphs.
Get Early Access2.4 - The Kinematic Equations
Introduce and apply the core kinematic equations for constant acceleration in 1D.
Get Early Access2.5 - Free Fall
A specific, real-world application of 1D kinematics.
