KINEMATICS: PHYSICS SHORT ANSWER QUESTIONS Basically, there are two ways to do a study of motion, Kinematics, and Dynamic . Kinematics is the branch of mechanics and study of the motion of the objects, without making reference to the forces that cause motion. Similarly, the dynamic is also the same but it gives the reference to the force that creates motion. A few examples of Kinematics are: train moving, Bus moving, moving water in a river, etc. 1. Under what condition will the distance and displacement of a moving object will have the same magnitude? Ans: It is possible only when the object moves on a straight line in the same direction. 2. Can a body have a constant speed but a varying velocity? Ans: Yes, it is possible when the body is moving in a circular path with a uniform speed. At every point of its path, the speed is the same but the velocity is directed tangentially. 3. Can a body have a constant velocity but a varying speed? Ans: No, it is n...
