Rectilinear Motion With Variable Acceleration
Rectilinear Motion With Variable Acceleration
Each of the principal variables may be expressed in terms of the time or they may be
expressed in terms of each other or even a combination of the other.
Case I. The displacement is given in terms of the time i.e. s=f (t ) to find v and a.
Case II. The acceleration is expressed in terms of the time i.e. a=f (t) to find v and s.
Case III. The velocity is given in terms of the time i.e. v=f (t) to find a and s.
Case IV. One of the principal variables is expressed in terms of an adjacent variable,
i.e. a=f (v ) or v=f ( s ) .
