It explains kinematics through displacement, distance, velocity, average and instantaneous velocity, and acceleration using position–time and velocity–time graphs. Projectile motion is treated via independent horizontal and vertical components with constant horizontal velocity and gravity-driven vertical acceleration. Uniform circular motion is linked to velocity changes requiring perpendicular acceleration and centripetal acceleration.
