### Uniformly accelerated motion
|
||||
|
||||
**Uniformly accelerated motion** is the constant acceleration in a **straight line**, or the constant increase in velocity over equal time intervals. The five key $suvat$ variables can be used to represent the various information in uniformly accelerated motion.
|
||||
|
||||
- $s=$ change in displacement during time interval $t$ (i.e., from $t=0$ to $t$)
|
||||
- $u=$ initial velocity at time $t=0$
|
||||
- $v=$ final velocity at time $t$
|
||||
- $a=$ constant acceleration
|
||||
- $t=$ time elapsed since $t=0$
|
||||
|
||||
By the formula of the gradient and the formula for the area underneath an acceleration time graph, the following formulas can be derived and are in the data booklet:
|
||||
|
||||
- $s=ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$
|
||||
- $v = u + at$
|
||||
- $s = \frac{1}{2}(u+v)t$
|
||||
- $v^2 = u^2 + 2as$
|
||||
|
||||
### Projectile motion
|
||||
|
||||
**Projectile motion** is uniformly accelerated motion that does not leave the vertical plane (is two-dimensional). Note that the two directions (horizontal and vertical) that the projectile moves in are independent of one another.
