Quick Tutorial {Acceleration}:-

OpenStudy (theviper):

\[\Large{\color{red}{\text{Acceleration:-}}}\]Acceleration of a body is defined as the rate of change of its velocity with time.The S.I. unit of acceleration is "meters per second square" written as \[m/s^2\]

OpenStudy (theviper):

There are two types of acceleration:- 1.)Uniform Acceleration 2.)Non-Uniform Acceleration

OpenStudy (theviper):

Uniform Acceleration:- A body has a uniform acceleration if its velocity changes at a uniform rate. Non-Uniform Acceleration:- A body has a non-uniform acceleration if its velocity changes at a non-uniform rate.

OpenStudy (theviper):

Also there is 'Retardation':- A body is said to be retarded if its velocity is decreasing.It is also called Deceleration or Negative Acceleration.

OpenStudy (theviper):

Some points to be noted:-\[\color{gold}{\star}{\text{Acceleration is a vector quantity.}}\] \[\color{gold}{\star \star}{\text{When a body is moving with a uniform velocity, its acc. will be 0.}}\]

OpenStudy (theviper):

\[a=\frac{v-u}{t}\]where, a=acceleration v=final velocity u=initial velocity t=time

OpenStudy (theviper):

\[\Large{\color{orange}{\text{Average Velocity:-}}}\]If the acceleration is uniform then the average velocity is given by the 'arithmetic mean' of the initial velocity & final velocity for a given period of time.i.e., :-\[av=\frac{v+u}{2}\]where, av=average velocity v=final velocity u=initial velocity

OpenStudy (theviper):

Three main equations of uniformly accelerated motion:-\[\Large{\color{gold}{\star}\color{blue}{v=u+at}}\]\[\Large{\color{gold}{\star \star}\color{blue}{s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2}}\]\[\Large{\color{gold}{\star \star \star}\color{blue}{v^2=u^2+2as}}\]

OpenStudy (ajprincess):

It's a really useful quick tutorial.@TheViper

OpenStudy (theviper):

thanx @ajprincess

OpenStudy (ajprincess):

yw.:)

OpenStudy (prakharluv):

its a truely very useful. @TheViper ..:-)

OpenStudy (theviper):

thanx everyone who say that:)

OpenStudy (theviper):

to*

OpenStudy (ujjwal):

good job!

OpenStudy (theviper):

thanx:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nice tutorial .... Keep it up ;)

OpenStudy (theviper):

Thanx @supercrazy92

OpenStudy (theviper):

Any suggestion @Vincent-Lyon.Fr ??

OpenStudy (theviper):

@dpaInc @lalaly ur suggestion

OpenStudy (theviper):

@ParthKohli @physicsme

OpenStudy (theviper):

@mathslover

OpenStudy (theviper):

@ramkrishna & @mathslover any suggestion?

mathslover (mathslover):

great keep it up @TheViper

OpenStudy (theviper):

thanx @mathslover

OpenStudy (theviper):

u sir?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its very good. But Also, remember to do a lot of practice with numerical problems, this is the way in which you can better understand/visualize these concept.

OpenStudy (theviper):

yes sir

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what about including some practice numerical problems in you next tutorial?

OpenStudy (theviper):

k!

OpenStudy (theviper):

Now i can close this

OpenStudy (theviper):

@radar

OpenStudy (radar):

Useful and I'm sure you put some thought into it. Thanks.
