Chapter 2 Motion in One Dimension
The average speed of the particle is absolute value of the average velocity and is given by s = Distance travelled ∆t (2.2) In general, the value of the average velocity for a moving particle depends on the initial and final times for which we have found the displacements. 2.1.3 Instantaneous Velocity and Speed

Chapter 6 Work, Kinetic Energy and Potential Energy
www2.tntech.eduThe potential energy U(r) also has units of joules in the SI system. When our physics problems involve forces for which we can have a potential energy function, we usually think about the change in potential energy of the objects rather than the work done by these forces. However for non–conservative forces, we must directly calculate

Chapter 1 Units and Vectors: Tools for Physics
www2.tntech.eduIf two vectors are perpendicular then their scalar product is zero. The vector product (or cross product) of vectors a and b is a vector c whose mag-nitude is given by c = absinφ (1.9) where φ is the smallest angle between a and b. The direction of c is perpendicular to the
