,About this chapter
In this section major contents of Kinematics(mechanics) i.e. displacement, velocity and
acceleration have been discussed in detail. Further to make the preparation more effective and
worthwhile each topic is synchronized with past paper questions and their solutions. This chapter
is very much fruitful for the students of IGCSE, GCSE, O/LEVEL, A LEVEL, IB Physics
appearing in CIE or Edexcel examination system.
Dr. Zubair Ph.D.
Associate professor of Physics
