How to start with Linear Motion software ?
• Open Genius Maker software and click “Linear Motion” button. It opens the Linear motion window as shown above. • Let us learn to use the software with the following examples EXAMPLE – 1 • A car is moving with a velocity of 40 m/s with a retardation of 3 m/s2 . Calculate the displacement and velocity of the car after 20 seconds. • Cilck “Clear data” button to clear off any existing data. • Ensure that the unit system selected is ” Meter – Second “. If not, select it by using the drop down menu of “Change to another unit system”. • Enter the following values in the respective boxes. • Initial velocity, U = 40 m/s • Acceleration, A = – 3 m/s2 ( It is -ve because the given problem says it is retardation.) • Time, T = 20 s • Click “Solve” button • You may see the following. • The software solves the given problem and finds out the values of Final velocity and Displacement as – 20 m/s & 200 m respectively and displays the same in the relevant boxes. • The graph window shows all the graphs
