MOTION
LINEAR MOTION – Motion in one dimension

Rectilinear Motion – motion of the body in a straight line.

TYPES OF RECTILINEAR MOTION

a. Uniform Motion – body covers equal distances at equal interval
of time or moving at a constant velocity or a constants speed in a
straight line.
TYPES OF RECTILINEAR MOTION

Velocity – is constant and acceleration is zero.

b. Uniform accelerated motion – Velocity changes at

constant rate.
Acceleration is constant.
◦ RECTILINEAR MOTION
BASIC FORMULAS

1 . S = ave. v t distance formula

2. a = Vf – Vo/ t acceleration
3. Ave. v = Vo + Vf /2 average velocity
4. s = (Vo + Vf) t
2
5. Vf = Vo + at
6. Vf² = Vo² + 2as
7. s = Vo t + at²

A car travels 280 km in 4 hours.
a. What is the average speed?
b. How far will it go in 7 hours at this average speed?
c. How long will it take to travel 300km at this average speed?
A jeep is traveling at 40 m/s when the breaks are applied. It comes to a stop after20 seconds.
a. Find the Acceleration?
b. The distance travelled after the breaks are applied.
A car has an Acceleration of 8 m/s².
a. how much time is needed to for it to reach a velocity of 24 m/s if it starts from
rest?
B. How far does it go during this period?
