A Level Physics:Dynamics and Motion(formula and solved problems)

Dynamics Physics a level Motion in a srtraight line. Speed is different from velocity .Speed is the distance moved in a unit time , while velocity is the distance moved in a unit time in a particular direction. We can assume that a car is moving in a stright line with a velocity of 5 m/s ,than it is evident that the car travels a distance of 5m in one second without any change in direction, The equation which is used is: velocity = distance moved /time taken (use this formula in exams and when doing problems) Example: A motor bike travels 1000 m in 6 minutes,find the speed of the motor bike? (dear students take note of the wording please the question asks for the speed of the bike as it doesnot say that the bike travelling in a specific direction. If you have any further doubts about the specifications about the differenciations of speed and velocity and the problems involved in them please be kind enough either to email me at veeradinesh85@gmail.com or just leave a comment below.Any type of doubts are welcome even ifthey are not from this section.
