      Kinematics is the study of the motion of points, objects, and groups of objects without considering the causes of its motion.

(Look ahead to Equation (???), for an example.) Remember that x stands for a number that can be positive or negative (depending on the side of the origin the point is on), and has dimensions of length, so when giving a numerical value for it you must always …

But we have not developed a specific equation that relates acceleration and displacement. In this section, we develop some convenient equations for kinematic relationships, starting from the definitions of displacement, velocity, and acceleration already covered.

It explores the physical principles, emphasizing time constants, junction capacitance effects, and circuit design impacts on operational frequencies. The analysis includes the influence of wire characteristics on resistance and performance, as well as semiconductor properties like energy gaps, doping, and p-n junction behavior under different biases.

The object is called a projectile, and its path is called its trajectory. The motion of falling objects is a simple one-dimensional type of projectile motion in which there is no horizontal movement. In this section, we consider two-dimensional projectile motion, such as that of a football or other object for which air resistance is negligible.
