In the image above, the red line is the position vs time graph and the blue line is an approximated slope for the line at t=2.5 seconds. For constant velocity motion, the slope gives the constant velocity, the average velocity, and the instantaneous velocity at every point.

      The rotational angle is a measure of how far an object rotates, and angular velocity measures how fast it rotates.

      Average velocity is defined as the change in position (or displacement) over the time of travel.

Projectile Motion: The motion of an object thrown or projected into the air, subject to only the acceleration of gravity. Newton’s Laws of Motion: Three fundamental laws describing the relationship between the motion of an object and the forces acting on it.

And if you are familiar with basic calculus, it is easy to obtain a general solution for a velocity as the n th degree function of time. From it, we obtain the value of the velocity at that instant of time. The generalization of equation (i) and (iii) is similar to the generalization of (ii).

The SI unit for acceleration is meters per second squared. Acceleration can be caused by a change in the magnitude or the direction of the velocity, or both. Instantaneous acceleration is the slope of the velocity-versus-time graph.

      Force is any influence that causes an object to change, either concerning its movement, direction, or geometrical construction.
