Kinematics
Kinematics is the study of moving objects and their distance and displacement, speed and velocity, acceleration, and time spent travelling. There is a lot of relevance to everyday life. Just think about the journeys you take to and around school! Her…

…ment position is a bit more tricky since the displacement is parallel to the wave direction. Wave equations We recall from Kinematics that speed is distance divided by time. Given that all individual waves travel at the same speed in a given medium…
