5. Recall in the earlier lesson, we have learnt to determine the physical quantities associated with motion graphically. In this lesson, we shall learn how to calculate from the Equations of Motion. Personally, I like to call them, the Equations of Uniform Acceleration because these equations are ONLY APPLICABLE UNDER UNIFORM ACCELERATION! The Equations of Motion

6. Where s = Δ s, that is the change in displacement; t = Δ t, that is, the change in time or the time taken; u = initial velocity; v = final velocity; a = acceleration The four equations of motion is given on the left. Each equation caters to finding an unknown physical quantity if three other are known. However, they are often written in the following form, omitting “ Δ ”. 1 2 3 4
