Motion

The scalar and vector quantities are different in terms of direction. Scalars have only magnitude and no direction. It follows basic arithmetic operations for addition and subtraction. Examples of scalar quantities include speed, time, mass and temperature. On the other hand, the vectors have both magnitude and direction including quantities like velocity, displacement, force and acceleration. The subtraction and addition of vectors require mathematical or graphical methods such as parallelogram law or triangle. While vectors vary based on orientation, the scalars remain unchanged regardless of direction. These concepts are essential in physics, especially in electromagnetism and mechanics where vector analysis plays a key role in studying forces and motion.

The chapter "Motion in a Plane" covers various fundamental concepts related to two-dimensional motion. It begins with an Introduction to Motion in a Plane, explaining the basic principles of movement in two dimensions. It then explores Scalars and Vectors, highlighting the difference between quantities with and without direction. The chapter also discusses the Multiplication of Vectors by Real Numbers, followed by methods for Addition and Subtraction of Vectors using the Graphical Method. Further, it introduces the Resolution of Vectors, which helps in breaking a vector into its components, and the Vector Addition – Analytical Method, providing a mathematical approach to combining vectors. The chapter delves deeper into Motion in a Plane and extends the discussion to Motion in a Plane with Constant Acceleration, which is essential in understanding kinematics. Special cases of two-dimensional motion, such as Projectile Motion, are also covered, explaining how objects move under the influence of gravity. Finally, it introduces Uniform Circular Motion, which describes motion in a circular path with constant speed. These topics provide a strong foundation for understanding the mechanics of motion in physics.

In order to provide individualized attention and high-quality instruction, Redfire VFX Animation Institute normally only accepts a selected number of students in its Motion Graphics Animation course. Although the precise amount varies with each intake, a batch typically consists of 20–30 students. Because of the lower class sizes, students can benefit from more engaged instruction, easier access to resources, and more individualized attention from knowledgeable teachers. By limiting the number of students, the institute hopes to maintain high standards in education while making sure every student receives thorough training and ongoing assistance.
