Key Topics to Revise

1

Vectors and Scalars

  • Scalar quantities have only magnitude (e.g., mass, speed, time).
  • Vector quantities have both magnitude and direction (e.g., displacement, velocity, acceleration).
  • Vectors are represented by arrows; length = magnitude, arrowhead = direction.
2

Projectile Motion

  • Projectile motion occurs when an object is thrown at an angle to the horizontal.
  • Horizontal motion: constant velocity (ax = 0).
  • Vertical motion: constant acceleration due to gravity (ay = -g).
3

Circular Motion

  • Uniform circular motion: constant speed but changing velocity (due to direction change).
  • Centripetal acceleration is always directed towards the center.
  • Magnitude of centripetal acceleration: a = v²/r.
