Kinematics Calculator

Kinematics is the branch of physics that describes the motion of objects without considering the forces that cause the motion. It deals with displacement, velocity, acceleration, and time.

Key Kinematics Equations:

• v = v₀ + at - Final velocity with constant acceleration
• Δx = v₀t + ½at² - Displacement with constant acceleration
• v² = v₀² + 2aΔx - Final velocity without time
• Δx = ½(v₀ + v)t - Displacement using average velocity

Important Concepts:

• Displacement: Change in position (vector quantity)
• Velocity: Rate of change of displacement
• Acceleration: Rate of change of velocity
• Constant Acceleration: Acceleration that doesn't change with time

Units:

• Displacement: meters (m)
• Velocity: meters per second (m/s)
• Acceleration: meters per second squared (m/s²)
• Time: seconds (s)
