The initial velocity, denoted as v0, is the velocity of an object at the beginning of its motion.
Think of a car starting from rest at a traffic light. The initial velocity is the speed at which the car starts moving when the light turns green.
Final velocity (vf): The final velocity is the velocity of an object at the end of its motion.
Displacement (Δx): Displacement refers to how far an object has moved from its initial position.
Time (t): Time represents the duration or period during which an object is in motion.
