DERIVA TIVES
a measure of how a function changes as it input changes IF THE FUNCTION IS PLOTTED IN A GRAPH, DERIVATIVES MEASURE THE SLOPE OF THE GRAPH AT EACH POINT

DISTANCE = is a scalar measure of the interval between two locations measured along the actual path connecting them. DISPLACEMENT = is a vector measure of the interval between two locations measured along the shortest path connecting them and has a magnitude that is equal the shortest distance between two positions.

Equations of kinematics for a constant acceleration Equations of kinematics are equation that describes the behavior of a system as a function of time. In other words, they are referring as differential equations that the system satisfies. These equations are only applied to particles moving in linear motion which is in one dimension with constant acceleration. They are often referred as SUVAT where the five

Figure 1 shows the velocity against time graph of a linear motion with constant acceleration. Velocity varies linearly with time.
Derivation of linear motion equations with uniform acceleration Consider an object that has an initial velocity u at vu time t = 0 s and moves for a time t with a constant t acceleration a. From the graph, its gradient is the acceleration. Therefore,
