Homework Equations
Not sure on the equation to be used?
Kinematics in one dimension is the study of the motion of objects along a straight line. It involves the concepts of position, displacement, velocity, and acceleration.
Position is the location of an object relative to a chosen reference point, while displacement is the change in position of an object in a particular direction.
Velocity is the rate of change of an object's position over time. It is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude (speed) and direction.
Acceleration is the rate of change of an object's velocity over time. It is also a vector quantity and can be either positive (speeding up) or negative (slowing down).
Average speed is calculated by dividing the total distance traveled by an object by the total time it took to travel that distance. It is a scalar quantity and does not take into account the direction of motion.
