What Cambridge says you should be able to do, in our words. Codes are the topic number plus the objective’s position.
Understand the concepts of distance and speed as scalar quantities, and of displacement, velocity and acceleration as vector quantities.
Restricted to motion in one dimension only. The term 'deceleration' may sometimes be used when speed is decreasing.
Taught in: Distance, displacement, speed and velocity · 6 questions
Sketch and interpret displacement–time graphs and velocity–time graphs, and in particular appreciate that the area under a velocity–time graph represents displacement, the gradient of a displacement–time graph represents velocity, and the gradient of a velocity–time graph represents acceleration.
Taught in: Reading a displacement–time graph, Reading a velocity–time graph · 12 questions
Use differentiation and integration with respect to time to solve simple problems concerning displacement, velocity and acceleration.
The calculus required is restricted to techniques from the Paper 1: Pure Mathematics 1 content.
Taught in: Calculus for motion: differentiating and integrating · 6 questions
Use appropriate formulae for motion with constant acceleration in a straight line.
Questions may involve setting up more than one equation, using information about the motion of different particles.
