Concepts Used:
Motion in a Plane
It is a vector quantity. A vector quantity is a quantity having both magnitude and direction. Speed is a scalar quantity and it is a quantity having a magnitude only. Motion in a plane is also known as motion in two dimensions.
Equations of Plane Motion
The equations of motion in a straight line are:
v=u+at
s=ut+½ at2
v2-u2=2as
Where,
- v = final velocity of the particle
- u = initial velocity of the particle
- s = displacement of the particle
- a = acceleration of the particle
- t = the time interval in which the particle is in consideration
