Motion in a Straight Line : Kinematics | Class 11 Physics

Physics > Motion in a Straight Line

In this chapter, we are going to study a motion that is common to everything in the universe so, before studying this chapter here are some basic terms that you must know so that it will be easy for you to better understand this chapter in a proper way.

  • Rest - If a body does not change its position with respect to time.
  • Motion - If a body changes its position with respect to time.
  • Rectilinear Motion - If the motion of a body along a straight line or one-dimensional motion.
  • Point Object - If a body covers a much larger distance than its own size in a given time. For better understanding, you can neglect the size of the object and consider it as a point object.
  • Kinematics - It deals with the study of motion without considering the cause of motion.
