  1. The kinematic equations (article) | Khan Academy

    Learn what the kinematic equations are and how you can use them to analyze scenarios involving constant acceleration.

  2. Wave characteristics review (article) | Khan Academy

    The speed v of a wave is constant for any unchanging medium, so frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional. The wave speed equation is not a new equation, it’s just a different way …

  3. Calculating average velocity or speed - Khan Academy

    Speed (or rate, r) is a scalar quantity that measures the distance traveled (d) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation r = d/Δt. Created by Sal Khan.

  4. Calculating wave speed, frequency, and wavelength - Khan Academy

    Practice using the wave speed equation for word problems to find the frequency and wavelength of a wave.

  5. Solving for time (video) | Khan Academy

    Rate of change in position, or speed, is equal to distance traveled divided by time. To solve for time, divide the distance traveled by the rate. For example, if Cole drives his car 45 km per …

  6. Instantaneous speed and velocity (video) | Khan Academy

    Learn how to find an object’s instantaneous speed or velocity in three ways - by using calculus, by looking at the slope of a given point on a graph of an object’s rate vs. time, or by using …

  7. Uniform circular motion and centripetal acceleration review

    Review the key concepts, equations, and skills for uniform circular motion, including centripetal acceleration and the difference between linear and angular velocity.

  8. The equation of a wave (video) | Waves | Khan Academy

    In this video David shows how to determine the equation of a wave, how that equation works, and what the equation represents.

  9. What is velocity? (article) | Khan Academy

    Average speed is the distance traveled divided by elapsed time. So, while the magnitudes of the instantaneous speed and velocity are always identical, the magnitudes of average speed and …

  10. Kinetic energy (video) | Kinetic energy | Khan Academy

    Kinetic energy depends on both mass and speed, but the dependence on speed is stronger. This estimation of kinetic energy can be quantified in an equation that lets us calculate kinetic …
