Displacement is a vector quantity having both magnitude and direction. It is the shortest distance between initial and final positions.
g = 9.8 m/s^2 (approximately 10 m/s^2) is the acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface, directed towards Earth's center.
The slope (Δv/Δt) of a velocity-time graph gives acceleration. The area under the graph gives displacement.
In projectile motion (ignoring air resistance), horizontal velocity remains constant because there is no horizontal force acting on the projectile.
Projectile range R = v^2sin(2θ)/g is maximum when sin(2θ) = 1, i.e., 2θ = 90°, so θ = 45 degrees.
Speed is a scalar quantity (magnitude only, no direction). Velocity is the vector counterpart of speed (magnitude + direction).
In free fall (no air resistance), the time to rise equals the time to fall. The trajectory is symmetric about the maximum height.
When velocity and acceleration are opposite, the object decelerates (slows down). This is called negative acceleration or retardation.
The third equation of motion v^2 = u^2 + 2as relates final velocity (v), initial velocity (u), acceleration (a), and displacement (s) without time.
A body at rest has zero velocity but may have non-zero acceleration. Example: a ball thrown up has v=0 at the top but acceleration = -g.
