Introduction
The second equation of motion relates distance to time. This can be obtained from the analysis of various graphs of motion.
Pre-Requisites:
Basics of Cartesian Coordinate Geometry, Velocity - Time graph, Displacement -Time Graph, Equations of Motion
Activity:
Using the graph and the techniques like what the slope and areas represents, derive the relationship between position and time.
Real Life Question:
You start from rest and reach the opposite of a circular path in 5min. Final velocity is 2 m per sec. What is the radius of the circle?
