1.1 Kinematics

For constant acceleration, one useful model is d = v₀t + ½at². The sign of acceleration changes whether the motion speeds up or slows down.

Big idea
Physics describes patterns with variables and units.
Study move
Ask what each variable means before substituting numbers.
d = v₀t + ½at²
What to notice
Positive acceleration makes the position-time curve bend upward.
Current output
Distance after 5 s: 0 m
Quick check & teacher tips

Quick check

If acceleration is 0, what stays constant?

Formula / rule
d = v₀t + ½at²
How to remember it
Start with what the object already has, then add the effect of acceleration over time.
Exam hints
  • Write units with every answer.
  • Choose a sign convention first.
  • Sketch the situation before solving.
