Motion

Motion refers to the movement of an object from one position to another position

Motion's Characteristics

If there is a Force F that makes an object of Mass m to move a Distance s within Time t Then

• Speed

The ratio of Distance over Time gives Speed of Motion

$v={\frac {s}{t}}$

• Acceleration

The ratio of Speed over time gives Acceleration of the motion

$a={\frac {v}{t}}$

• Distance

Distance travels of the motion is defined as the product of Mass times Acceleration

S = v t = a t²

• Force

Force causing the Motion

F = m a = m v t = p t

• Work Done

Work done by the force is the product of the Force and the Distance travel

W = F s F v t = p v

• Energy

Work done by the force is the product of the Force and the Distance travel

$E={\frac {W}{t}}={\frac {Fs}{t}}=Fv=pa$

Types of Motion

1. Linear Motion
2. Non - Linear Motion
3. Periodic Motion
