In this article, we will derive the first equation of motion by graphical method. The formula for the first equation of motion The first equation of motion is given by the relation  \(v=u+at\)  Where  $v$= final velocity$u$= initial velocity$a$= acceleration$s$=…

Here in this article, we will derive the third equation of motion by graphical method. This equation relates initial and final velocity with acceleration and displacement. While solving problems you must remember that these equations can only be used when…

Let us learn How to find displacement on a velocity-time graph. Finding displacement on a velocity-time graph is extremely easy. The area under a velocity-time graph gives the measurement of the displacement of the object under consideration. A velocity-time graph…

Average velocity is defined as the displacement divided by the time during with the change in position of the particle takes place. Average velocity is a vector quantity and its SI unit is meter per second \((m/s)\). So,\[v_{avg}=\frac{\Delta \vec{x}}{\Delta t}=\frac{x_2-x_1}{t_2 -t_1}\]Consider…

The current article is dedicated to finding the difference between speed and velocity. Here we will look at the speed vs. velocity comparison in tabular form along with the differences between them. Speed and velocity are some basic concepts of…

The following are the important kinematics equations list. I will also provide a link to a Google Docs file from where you can download the file as a pdf (see at the end of the article). Physics – Kinematics Equations Average Velocity…
