    1) Physics deals with the interaction of matter and energy. It studies motion, especially rectilinear or straight-line motion. 2) Kinematics is the branch of physics that describes and quantifies types of motion such as distance, displacement, speed, velocity, and acceleration. 3) Important concepts in kinematics include scalar and vector quantities, where vectors have both magnitude and direction, and standard units are used to measure and compare physical quantities.

    interaction of matter and energy.
    - “physics” comes from ancient greek ;
    capacity or other aspect.
    MOTION.
    meaning “knowledge of nature” Kilo - thousands
    - derived from the greek word Hector - hundred Kinematics from greek word “kinema”
    “physica” meaning “nature” Deca - ten which means movement
    Deci - tenth
    7 FUNDAMENTAL UNITS Centi - hundredth Rectilinear motion (linear motion) -
    Length = meter (m) Milli - thousandth specific form of motion ; motion that
    Time = seconds (s) occurs in single direction or axis.
    Amount of Subtance = mole (mole) - it can also called straight-line motion.
    Electric current = ampere (A) VECTOR - quantity or
    Temperature = kelvin (A) phenomenom that has two Distance - total distance that covered
    Luminous Intensity = candela (cd) independent properties ; magnitude by the moving object or particle.
    Mass = Kilogram (kg) and direction. Displacement - Net distance from the
    MAGNITUDE - is the length of vector, starting to the end point of motion.
    fixed quantity, which physical quantity denoted as “||a||”
    is measured called unit. > Starts from orign O reaches point Z
    Distance = OZ
    Displacement = OZ
    TWO MAJOR SYSTEM OF UNITS
    > Now he reach the point Y
    SI UNITS - known as metric system
    Distance = OZ + OY
    English Units - known as customary or
    Displacement = -OY
    imperial system.
    ( displacement is negative since it is
    measured to the left of origin )
    DIRECTION - path that something takes
    Speed (v) - magnitude of velocity, no
    or path that must be taken to reach a
    direction and always non-negative.

    Velocity - rate of change in
    displacement, has a direction and this
    Scalar Quantities have a magnitude
    direction is represented by a negative
    but no direction.

    Mathematical Term (defined as
    time, temperature, snd work.
    STANDARD UNITS - units we usually follows) :
    Vector Quantities have magnitude and
    use to measure the length, weight, or Speed = Distance Travelled / Time
