Document Summary
Physics 2 - lecture 3 - motion in one dimension, constant acceleration. The kinematic equations may be used to solve any problem involving one dimensional motion with a constant acceleration. You may need to use two of the equations to solve one problem. The equations are useful when you can model a situation as a particle under constant acceleration. Can determine an object"s velocity at any time t when we know its initial velocity ( vx = v0x + ax t0 (t v0x at time t0. Does not give any information about displacement directly v +vx. For constant acceleration, average velocity: vav x = 2. The average velocity can be expressed as the arithmetic mean of the initial and. This gives you the position of the position (x) at time t in terms of time elapsed x = x0 + vav x t0 x + v0x (t.
