Understanding Motion and Rest Concepts

The document defines and explains key concepts related to motion including: - Motion is when a body's position changes with respect to a reference point. Distance traveled is the actual path length, while displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final positions along with direction. - Uniform motion means equal distances in equal time intervals, shown as a straight line graph, while non-uniform motion has unequal distances in equal time, shown as a curved graph. - Speed is distance over time, average speed is total distance over total time, and velocity includes direction and its units are meters/second. Uniform velocity means equal distances in equal time intervals in a straight line. - Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time

MOTION AND

REST
Made by sarthak kumar

MOTION
A body is said to be in motion when its position
changes continuously with respect to a stationary
object taken as reference point.
Motion depends on distance and displacement.

Distance

The distance travelled by a body is the actual


length of the path covered by a moving body
irrespective of the direction in which the body
travels.

Displacement

When a body moves from one position to


another , the shortest distance between the initial
position and final position of the body, along with
direction , is known as its displacement.

Uniform motion

A body has a uniform motion if it travels equal


distance in equal interval of time , no matter how
small these time intervals may be.
The distance time graph for uniform motion is a
straight line.

Non uniform motion

A body has a non-uniform if it travels unequal


distance in equal interval of time.
The distance time graph for a body having nonuniform motion is a curved line.

Speed
The speed is an idea of how slow or fast that body
is moving.
Speed of a body is the distance travelled by it per
unit time.

Average speed

The average speed of a body is the total distance


travelled divided by the total time taken to cover
this distance.

Uniform speed

A body has uniform speed if it travels equal


distance in equal intervals of time , no matter how
small these time intervals may be.

Velocity

Velocity of the body is the distance travel by it per


unit time in a given direction.
Velocity of the body is the displacement produced
per unit time.
The SI unit of the velocity is same as speed (m/s
or ms-1)

Uniform velocity

A body has a uniform velocity if it travels in a


specified direction in a straight line and moves
over equal distance in equal interval of time , no
matter how small these time intervals may be.

Acceleration
Acceleration of a body is defined as the rate of
change of its velocity with time.
The SI unit of acceleration is meter per second
square.
Acceleration is a vector quantity.

Uniform acceleration

A body has a uniform acceleration if it travels in a


straight line and its velocity increases by equal
amounts in equal interval of time.

Non-uniform acceeration

A body has a non uniform acceleration if its


velocity increases by unequal amounts in equal
interval of time.

Retardation

A body is said to be in retardation when its


velocity decreases.
If the velocity increases , acceleration take place
and when the velocity decreases , retardation take
place.

Equation of uniformly
accelerated motion

First equation = v=u+at


Second equation = s=ut +1/2 at
Third equation = v =u+2as

Uniform circular motion


When a body moves along a circular path ,then its
direction of motion keeps changing continuously.
When a body moves in a circular path with
uniform speed , its motion is called uniform
circular motion.
