Frequently Asked Questions
Speed is a scalar physical quantity representing how fast an object moves regardless of direction (Distance / Time), whereas Velocity is a vector quantity with both magnitude (speed) and directional displacement (Displacement / Time). In one-dimensional kinematics, velocity includes sign (+ or -) to denote direction.
The SUVAT equations describe motion under constant uniform acceleration: 1) v = u + at, 2) s = ut + ½at², 3) v² = u² + 2as, 4) s = ½(u + v)t, and 5) s = vt - ½at², where u = initial velocity, v = final velocity, a = acceleration, t = time duration, and s = displacement.
Angular velocity is related to linear tangential velocity by v = ω × r, where r is the radius of the circular path. Centripetal acceleration acting towards the center of rotation is given by a_c = v² / r = ω² × r.
Under Einstein's Special Relativity, relativistic momentum and kinetic energy scale with the Lorentz factor γ = 1 / √(1 - v²/c²). As velocity approaches the speed of light c (299,792,458 m/s), the energy required to accelerate the mass increases asymptotically to infinity.
Circular orbital velocity (v_o = √(GM/r)) is the speed required for an object to stay in a stable circular gravitational orbit around a celestial body at distance r. Escape velocity (v_e = √(2GM/r) = √2 × v_o) is the minimum initial speed required to completely break free from the body's gravitational pull without further propulsion.
