This AP Physics C: Mechanics study guide covers kinematics, focusing on motion in one dimension. Key concepts include position, displacement, distance, velocity, speed, and acceleration. It differentiates between scalars and vectors, explores average vs. instantaneous velocity, and details the kinematic equations. Calculus applications, specifically derivatives and integrals, relating position, velocity, and acceleration are explained. Finally, the guide covers interpreting kinematic graphs and provides practice questions and exam tips.
