Substituting this into equation (2), we get: a s = u + v × v – u or 2as = (u + v)(v – u) 2 a 2as = v 2 – u 2 v 2 = u 2 + 2as (4) Note: these formulas only apply when the acceleration is constant and the motion is in a straight line. Velocity, acceleration and displacement are vector quantities and therefore may be positive or negative. 9.

Many types of motion are occurring around us all the time. Blood flow, moving bullets, cricket balls, athletics, cars, stars, planets, neutrinos and weaving looms are some of the areas where motion is measured. Some need to be measured carefully, others not. A car speedometer that is a few kilometres per hour over or under makes little difference but better accuracy is needed when timing a 100 metre sprint or controlling the speed of videotape through the heads of a VCR. Sometimes the motion of objects doesn’t make sense.
