Introduction

 In this unit, we will draw motion graphs for objects moving in linear motion, analyses and interpret the motions as represented in the graphs. In our daily lives, we come across or interact with objects in motion. For example, people, animals and objects are from time to time involved in motion in various directions. The motion in a straight line is called linear motion, also referred to as rectilinear motion. Graphs of linear motion help us to visualize and analyses various aspects of the motion including distance and displacement covered, speed and velocity, direction of motion and acceleration.
