PHYSICAL QUANTITIES ARE OF TWO TYPES:
(i) Basic physical quantities,
(ii) Derived physical quantities.
BASIC PHYSICAL QUANTITIES:

standard units which are independent of each other

A body is said to be in motion (or
moving) when its position changes continuousl
with respect to a stationary object taken asa
reference point. _
‘The distance travelled by a body is the aci
length of the path covered by a moving body
respective of the direction in which the body
travels, .
When a body moves from one posi
another, the shortest (straight line) distance
between the initial position and final position of the
body, along with direction, is known as its
displacement

SPEED, VELOCITY AND ACCELERATION
The motion of a body can be described by
three terms: speed, velocity and acceleration
SPEED
‘Speed of a body is the distance travelled by
it per unit time
motion is also called
ncetravelled,
Time taken!
Speed =
If a body travels a distance 's’ in time 't
then its speed 'v is given by: ¥= |
Where v = Speed
s = Distance travelled
{= Time taken (to travel that
distance)
‘The SI unit of distance is metre (m) and that
of time is second (s), therefore, the SI unit of speed
js metres per second which is written as m/s or
ms".__ Speed has magnitude only, it has no
Specified direction, therefore, speed is a scalar
quantity
AVERAGE SPEED
The average speed of a body is the total
distance travelled divided by the total time te
to cover this distance.

Average speed
verse Total time taken
UNIFORM SPEED (OR CONSTANT SPEED}
A body has a uniform speed ifit travels equal
distances in equal intervals of time.
VELOCITY
Velocity of a body is the distance travelled
by it per unit time in a given direction. Velocity of a
body is its speed in a specified direction.
Velocity = Distance travelled in a given
direction/Time taken

@NIPORM ACCELERATION
A body is said to be accelerated if it tr
straight line and its velocity increases by equal
‘amounts in equal intervals of time. A body has a
uniform acceleration if its velocity changes at a
uniform rate.
Here are some examples of the uniformly
accelerated motion
() The motion of a freely falling body is an
example of uniformly accelerated motion.
The motion of a bicycle going down the slope
of a road when the rider is not pedalling and
wind resistance is negligible, is also an
example of uniformly accelerated motion.
The motion of a ball rolling down an inclined
plane is an example of uniformly accelerated
motion

A body has a non-uniform acceleration if its,
velocity increases by unequal amounts in equal
intervals of time. In other words, a body has non:
uniform acceleration if its velocity changes at a non.
