Displacement
 Difference between an object’s final position and its starting position.
Does depend on direction.
 Displacement = final position – initial position
 x = xfinal – xinitial
Velocity
 Rate at which an object is moving.
 speed = distance / time
Acceleration
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change
of velocity.
Relative Motion
 The motion of any object depends on the
frame of reference – or point of view – of
the observer.
 Pedestrian sees car moving along street.
Driver sees car at rest.
 Both observers are correct about the motion
of the car.

Newton’s Second Law of Motion
• If the resultant force acting on a particle is not
zero, the particle will have an acceleration
proportional to the magnitude of resultant and
in the direction of the resultant.
• We must use a Newtonian frame of reference, i.e., one that is
not accelerating or rotating.
• If no force acts on particle, particle will not accelerate, i.e., it will
remain stationary or continue on a straight line at constant
velocity.
