Kinematics

(a) state what is meant by speed and velocity


(b) calculate average speed using distance travelled / time taken


(c) state what is meant by uniform acceleration and calculate the value of an acceleration using change in velocity / time taken


(d) interpret given examples of non-uniform acceleration


(e) plot and interpret a displacement-time graph and a velocity-time graph


(f) deduce from the shape of a displacement-time graph when a body is:

(i) at rest

(ii) moving with uniform velocity

(iii) moving with non-uniform velocity


(g) deduce from the shape of a velocity-time graph when a body is: (i) at rest

(ii) moving with uniform velocity

(iii) moving with uniform acceleration

(iv) moving with non-uniform acceleration


(h) calculate the area under a velocity-time graph to determine the displacement travelled for motion with uniform velocity or uniform acceleration


(i) state that the acceleration of free fall for a body near to the Earth is constant and is approximately 10 m / s2


(j) describe the motion of bodies with constant weight falling with or without air resistance, including reference to terminal velocity
