Basic Physics SE-Optics
Drag & drop to FlexBook Shelf
This chapter covers the speed and velocity of objects in space. Velocity is speed with a direction, making it a vector quantity. If an object’s velocity changes with time, the object is said to be accelerating.
Categories: Linear Motion
Grades: 9 , 10 , 11 , 12
Organizations: CK-12 Foundation
Tags: speed , displacement , initial velocity , vector quantity

Basic Physics SE-Motion
Drag & drop to FlexBook Shelf
This chapter covers parabolic motion of a thrown object, known as projectile motion. Motion in one direction is unrelated to motion in other perpendicular directions.
Categories: Projectile Motion
Grades: 9 , 10 , 11 , 12
Organizations: CK-12 Foundation
Tags: parabolic motion , acceleration , horizontal direction , vertical direction
