Chapter 2: Motion in a Straight Line

Motion in a Straight Line

If an object changes its position with respect to its surroundings with time, then it is called in
motion. It is a change in the position of an object over time. Motion in a straight line is nothing
but linear motion. As the name suggests, it’s in a particular straight line, thus it can be said that
it uses only one dimension.
There are two branches in physics that examine the motion of an object.
• Kinematics: It describes the motion of objects, without looking at the cause of the motion.
• Dynamics: It relates the motion of objects to the forces which cause them.

Position, Distance, Displacement:

Position: Position of an object is always expressed with respect to some reference point which
we generally account to as origin. To express the change in position, we consider two physical
quantities.
Distance: It refers to the actual path traversed by the object during the course of motion.
Displacement: It refers to the difference between the final and initial positions of the object
during the course of motion.

where, x2 and x1 are final and initial
position respectively.

The distance is dependent upon the path The magnitude of displacement is not
travelled by the object. dependent on the path taken by an
object during the course of motion.

Average Velocity and Average Speed

Average velocity is defined as the change in position or displacement (∆x) divided by the time
intervals (∆t), in which the displacement occurs:
𝒙𝟐 −𝒙𝟏 ∆𝒙
̅=
𝒗 =
𝒕𝟐 −𝒕𝟏 ∆𝒕
where x2 and x1 are the positions of the object at time t2 and t1, respectively. Here the bar over
the symbol for velocity is a standard notation used to indicate an average quantity. The SI unit
for velocity is m/s or m s–1, although km h–1 is used in many everyday applications.

The average velocity is the slope of line P1 P2

The portion of the x-t graph between t = 0 s and t = 8 s is blown up and shown in Fig. As seen
from the plot, the average velocity of the car between time t = 5 s and t = 7 s i :
𝒙𝟐 −𝒙𝟏 ( 𝟐𝟕.𝟒−𝟏𝟎.𝟎)𝐦
̅=
𝒗 = = 𝟖. 𝟕𝒎 𝒔−𝟏
𝒕𝟐 −𝒕𝟏 (𝟕−𝟓)𝒔

Average speed is defined as the total path length travelled divided by the total time interval
during which the motion has taken place:

𝑨𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝒔𝒑𝒆𝒆𝒅 =
𝑻𝒐𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒂𝒍
(2)
 MOTION IN A STRAIGHT LINE

Average speed has obviously the same unit (m s–1) as that of velocity. But it does not tell us in
what direction an object is moving. Thus, it is always positive (in contrast to the average velocity
which can be positive or negative). If the
motion of an object is along a straight line and in the same direction, the magnitude of
displacement is equal to the total path length.In that case, the magnitude of average velocity is
equal to the average speed.
However, this is not always the case. The average velocity gives an idea on how fast an object
has been moving over a given interval but does give an idea on how fast it moves at different
instants of time during that interval.
Difference Between Speed and Velocity:

Speed Velocity
It refers to the total path length travelled It refers to the change in position or
divided by the total time interval during displacement divided by the time intervals, in
which the motion has taken place. which this displacement occurs.
It is a scalar quantity. It is a vector quantity.

velocity.
Instantaneous Velocity and Instantaneous Speed:
The velocity at an instant is defined as the limit of the average velocity as the time interval ∆t
becomes infinitesimally small. In other words,
∆𝒙 𝒅𝒙
𝒗 = 𝐥𝐢𝐦 =
∆𝒕→𝟎 ∆𝒕 𝒅𝒕
(3)

where the symbol 𝐥𝐢𝐦 stands for the operation of taking limit as ∆𝒕 → 𝟎 of the quantity on its

Determining velocity from position-time graph. Velocity at t = 4 s is the slope of the tangent to the graph at that
instant.

Acceleration

̅ over a time interval is defined as the change of velocity divided by

The average acceleration 𝒂

𝒗 −𝒗 ∆𝒗
̅= 𝟐 𝟏=

𝒕𝟐 −𝒕𝟏 ∆𝒕

where v2 and v1 are the instantaneous velocities or simply velocities at time t2 and t1. It is the
average change of velocity per unit time. The SI unit of acceleration is m s–2.
Instantaneous Acceleration: Mathematically, instantaneous acceleration can be expressed
(4)
 MOTION IN A STRAIGHT LINE

in the same way as the instantaneous velocity as follows:

∆𝒗 𝒅𝒗

The acceleration of an object at a particular time is the slope of the velocity-time graph at that
instant of time. For uniform motion, acceleration is zero and the x-t graph is a straight line
inclined to the time axis and the v-t graph is a straight line parallel to the time axis. For motion
with uniform acceleration, x-t graph is a parabola while the v-t graph is a straight line inclined to
the time axis.

Uniform motion:

If a body is said to be in uniform motion, the body completes equal distances in equal intervals
of time.
Here, velocity is constant during the course of motion. Also, acceleration is zero during the
course of motion.
Non-Uniform motion:

(6)
 MOTION IN A STRAIGHT LINE

If a body undergoes non-uniform motion, the body is said to be in uniformly accelerated motion.
Here, the magnitude of velocity increases or decreases with the passage of time. Also,
acceleration would not be zero as it undergoes accelerated motion.

Case Study Questions:

is said to be in the state of motion. Thus, motion can be defined as a change in
position of an object with time. It is common to everything in the universe. In the

10.Answer:

Short Questions Answers:
1. Answer: Average velocity is defined as the ratio of the total displacement to
the total time. Average speed is defined as the ratio of the total distance to the
total time. Since displacement is less than or equal to the distance, therefore
the average velocity is less than or equal to the average speed.
2. Answer:
Let l1, l2 be the lengths of the two trains.
v1, v2 be their velocities respectively.
∴ l1 = 109m, l2 = 91 m, v1 = 34kmh-1, v2 = 38kmh-1.
As the trains are moving in opposite directions so relative velocity of the trains
is given by
v1 - (- v2) = v1 + v2
= 34 + 38 = 72 kmh-1
5
= 72 × = 20 ms-1
18
Total distance to be covered by the two trains in crossing each other
= l1 + l2 = 109 + 91 = 200 m
If t be the time taken in crossing, then t can be calculated using the relation
x = vt
or

3. Answer:
S = 200 km. Let VR and vs be the speeds of Ram and Sham respectively moving
in opposite directions.
∴ vR = 60 kmh-1, vS = 40 kmh-1.
∴ Relative velocity of Ram w.r.t. Sham is
VRS = VR - (- VS)
= VR + VS
= 60 + 40 = 100 kmh-1
If t = time after which they will meet, then
t = time taken in covering 200 km distance with VRS

∴ Time after which they meet = 2h.

4. Answer:
vc = speed of car = 60 kmh-1
vs = speed of scooter = 40 kmh-1
vcs = relative velocity of car w.r.t. scooter
= vc - vs
= 60 - 40
= 20 kmh-1
Similarly, vsc = relative velocity of scooter w.r.t. car
= vs – v c
= 40 – 60
= – 20 kmh-1
Thus, we conclude that the magnitude of the relative velocity is the same in
both cases but the direction of relative velocity is reversed if the scooter is
ahead of the car.
5. Answer:
The positive T time graphs for two objects initially occupying different positions
but having zero relative velocity are parallel to each other as shown in Fig.

6. Answer:
• Let P represent the initial position at the time when the ball is thrown
vertically upward.
• Q represents the highest point reached by the ball.
• R represents the original position of the ball after 4 seconds.
Thus, the velocity-time graph for the motion of the ball is as shown in Fig.

(a) We know that at the highest point, the velocity of the object is zero. So,
stone will reach its maximum height corresponding to point Q.
(b) The stone has stopped moving at point Q because at Q, v = 0.
7. Answer:
The direction of velocity is always in the direction of motion of the body
whereas the direction of acceleration may or may not be in the direction of
motion of the body. Thus we conclude that it is the velocity that decides the
direction of motion of the body.
Example: When a ball is thrown vertically upwards, the direction of motion of
the ball and velocity is the same i.e. vertically upwards. On the other hand, the
acceleration due to gravity on the ball acts vertically downwards i.e. opposite
to the direction of motion of the ball.
8. Answer:
Since uA and uB are in mutually perpendicular directions, they will cover uA
and uB km in one hour respectively. Thus if v km be the separation between
them in one hour,
(19)
 MOTION IN A STRAIGHT LINE
03

Thus, if vAB be the relative speed of A w.r.t. B, then

If θ be the direction of vAB w.r.t. uA, Then

Thus, equations (1) and (2) give the magnitude and direction of relative
velocity of A w.r.t. B.

2. Answer:
1. The importance of a position-time graph is that its slope gives the velocity of
the object in uniform motion.

Let us consider the position-time graph of an object moving with uniform

velocity represented by the line DB making angle 0 with the time axis. Let the
coordinates of D and B be (x, t) and (x’, t’) respectively. Let BA and DC’ be
perpendiculars drawn from B and D respectively on the time axis and BE and
DC be perpendiculars on the y-axis from B and D.
Now BE’ = CE = x’ – x
and C’A = t’ – t = DE’

(22)
 MOTION IN A STRAIGHT LINE
03

So, velocity v = slope of position-time graph.

2. The position-time graph for a stationary object is a straight line parallel to

the time axis. Here the slope of the curve is zero, which means the object is
stationary as v = 0.
3. In the case of variable velocity the position time curve is not a straight line.
In this case, the slope of the curve gives the average velocity

= slope or chord AB when Δt → 0,

then the slope of curve gives the instantaneous velocity.
Instantaneous velocity =

Thus, the position-time graph gives information about velocity.
