Where, v= final velocity, u= initial velocity, a=
acceleration, t= time
EQUATIONS OF MOTION CONT’D
•SECOND EQUATION
•𝑺 = 𝒖𝒕 + 𝟏Τ 𝒂𝒕𝟐
𝟐
S= Displacement
U= initial velocity
t= time taken
a= acceleration
EQUATIONS OF MOTION CONT’D
• THIRD EQUATION
𝟐 𝟐
•𝒗 = 𝒖 + 𝟐𝒂𝑺
• V= final velocity
• U= initial velocity
• a= acceleration
• S= displacement
• These equations are applicable where the acceleration is constant.
IMPULSE AND FORCE
• Denoted by J, the mathematical relationship that exists between impulse
and a force F over a time interval ∆𝑡 is given as
• 𝐽 = 𝐹 𝑋 ∆𝑡
• 𝐽 = 𝐹∆𝑡
the unit is 𝑁𝑠 or 𝑘𝑔𝑚𝑠 −1
Food for thought: “Is Force always an Impulse”?
TUTORIAL QUESTIONS
