The Complete Linear Motion Course

Learn the difference between instantaneous velocity and instantaneous speed, define speed at a specific instant, and compare displacement, distance, and time intervals.

Apply key linear motion formulas to solve problems, including final speed v = u + a t and displacement s = u t + 1/2 a t^2.

Analyze a forward direction setup in linear motion with initial speed 24.6 and acceleration -4.92 until the final velocity is zero, yielding a displacement of 61.5 in about 5 s.

Solve the third linear motion problem by analyzing vector velocity in the same west direction, comparing 75 km west to 60 km west, with guided practice and Q&A.

Analyzes a car accelerating from 80 to 100 km/h in 200 m, converts to m/s, and uses v^2 = v0^2 + 2 a s to find a ≈ 0.69 m/s^2.

Follow along as you solve a linear motion problem by converting minutes to seconds and kilometers to meters, then apply the formula to compute acceleration and displacement.

Learn how to approach the question with two different solution methods, as this video introduces the split into two parts and explains the instructor's approach to solving the problem.

Solve two linear motion problems using v = u + at and s = ut + 1/2 at^2, finding speed after 5 s is 30 m/s and distance is 100 m, with correct units.

Demonstrate solving a uniform acceleration problem from 10 m/s to 30 m/s in five seconds, and verify the 100 m distance using different formulas.

This video solution solves a problem comparing sober and drunk drivers. It converts 63 km/h to 17.5 m/s, uses reaction times 0.3 s and 1.2 s, and yields 16 m.

Watch the second video for a shorter, more efficient solution to the linear motion problem, then convert speeds to meters per second and apply a direct formula for displacement.

An optional second video presents a shorter, more efficient solution for the final exam in the complete linear motion course, covering unit conversion and a direct formula to compute displacements.
