  1. Classical physics is not an exact description of the universe, but it is an excellent approximation under the following conditions: (1) matter must be moving at speeds less than about 1 percent of the speed of light, (2) the objects dealt with must be large enough to be seen with the naked eye, and (3) only weak gravity, such as that generated ...

  4. In physics, the motion is the change in position of an object with respect to its surroundings in a given interval of time. The motion of an object with some mass can be described in terms of the following: Distance. Displacement. Speed. Velocity. Time. Acceleration. Main types of motion. Translatory motion (linear motion) . Rotatory motion.

  5. Step 1 - Sketch a motion diagram for an object that is moving at a constant velocity. An object with constant velocity travels the same distance in the same direction in each time interval. The motion diagram in Figure 2.9 shows equally spaced images along a straight line.

    One dimensional motion is motion along a straight line, like the motion of a glider on an airtrack. speed and velocity. distance traveled d speed , s = , units are m/s or mph or km/hr or... time elapsed t . speed s and distance d are both always positive quantities, by definition.

  7. Defining Motion. Our study of physics opens with kinematics —the study of motion without considering its causes. Objects are in motion everywhere you look. Everything from a tennis game to a space-probe flyby of the planet Neptune involves motion. When you are resting, your heart moves blood through your veins.

  8. He accidentally runs over an innocent moose crossing the road, so he slows to a stop to check on the poor moose. He pauses for a while until he determines the moose is squashed flat and deader than a doornail. Fleeing the scene of the crime, Schmedrick takes off again in the same direction, speeding up quickly.
