NCERT Books for Class 9 Science Chapter 8

When an object moves in uniform motion in a straight line, the equations of motion can be related to the velocity, distance covered in a certain time interval and with a certain acceleration. For this, there are three cases given:

• Velocity-Time relation: Change in acceleration of an object in this graph is given as \[ \left [  a=\frac{\text{change in velocity}}{\text{Time taken}}\right ] \]Based on that, the equation formed is v= u+at where v is the final velocity and u is the initial velocity.

• Position- Time relation: If we consider that an object has moved a certain distance s in time t and at an acceleration a, then the equation formed is \[s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}\] .

• Position- Velocity relation: Same as the above case, the equation formed here is 2as= v²-u².

In between the NCERT class 9 chapter 8 Motion, each section has been clearly segmented along with several activities and exercises with numericals given so that students can solve and practice after each topic. This helps in quicker memorisation of the concept and also helps the student to mark his/her strengths and weaknesses. Numericals are also given at the end of the chapter which tests the complete understanding of the topics in question. For more such numericals, students can follow Vedantu and download study materials for free.

Concepts in Physics cannot be memorized at one go. It has to be understood first as it contains formulas and several theories related to them. After completing the chapter, students must read the summary of the chapter so that they can recollect the crux of the sections and clear doubts, if any. Furthermore, they can make short notes or follow video tutorials to clarify different concepts as well.  Vedantu helps students in building a strong foundation through their study resources available for free on their website.

Most of the questions asked in the class 9 Physics paper include short answer type questions or Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) and numericals. The numericals are easy and students can score full marks if the formulas are revised properly.  For short answer types, students must be thorough with the chapter because there are certain technical terms in Physics which students, sometimes, forget ahead of the exam. Hence students must pay close attention to the smallest details in the chapter which can be tedious initially, but will get easier once the short notes are revised.
