Linear Kinematics

Question 1

What’s the difference between kinetics and kinematics

Answer 1

Kinetics - the relationship between motion and its causes

Kinematics - describes the motion of bodies without considering causing forces

Question 2

What are the forms of motion

Answer 2

Translational - an object moving through space without changing its orientation

Rotational - how a body is orientated in space

Question 3

What are scalar and vector quantities

Answer 3

Scalar - has magnitude and can be represented by a singular number

Vector- has magnitude and direction
