8. Relative Motion Have you ever sat in a parked car and had the car next to you back up or go forward? Did you feel like it was your car that was moving?Have you ever sat in a parked car and had the car next to you back up or go forward? Did you feel like it was your car that was moving? How an observer sees a motion depends on how it compares with his own motion.How an observer sees a motion depends on how it compares with his own motion.

9. Passport Why does a jet airplane high in the sky look like it is moving very slowly even though it is traveling 300+ mi/hr?Why does a jet airplane high in the sky look like it is moving very slowly even though it is traveling 300+ mi/hr?

10. Possible Answer When you view a plane in the air, there are no reference points to help you judge how fast the plane is traveling (or the reference points are so large, it is difficult to tell). When you view a plane in the air, there are no reference points to help you judge how fast the plane is traveling (or the reference points are so large, it is difficult to tell). Reference Points also help us to judge speed and direction of motion Reference Points also help us to judge speed and direction of motion

Use Vocab. from 10.1Use Vocab. from 10.1Schedule: Speed notesSpeed notes Speed mathSpeed math Homework Speedy math handoutSpeedy math handout Objective: I can explain that speed measures how fast position changes Please Have on Desk: 10.1 RSG, journal, and sharpened pencil10.1 RSG, journal, and sharpened pencil

12. Possible Answer From earth’s point of view (frame of reference) it appears that the sun changes position in the sky. From earth’s point of view (frame of reference) it appears that the sun changes position in the sky. In reality, it is the earth spinning that makes the sun appear as though it is changing position in the sky.

13. Speed Diagnostic Quiz 1.List the 2 variables you must know in order to calculate the speed of an object. 2.List at least 3 units that can be used to indicate the speed of an object. 3.What tools would you need to calculate the average speed of a sprinter (Radar gun is not the correct answer)? 4.If a X-Country runner finishes a 3 mile race in 18 minutes, what is her average speed.

14. List the 2 variables you must know in order to calculate the speed of an object.List the 2 variables you must know in order to calculate the speed of an object. DISTANCE AND TIMEDISTANCE AND TIME

15. List at least 3 units than can be used to indicate the speed of an object. METERS/SECOND (m/s) MILES/HR (mi/hr) KILOMTERS/HR (km/hr) FEET/YR. (Ft/yr) CENTIMETERS/DECADE

16. What tools would you need to calculate the average speed of a sprinter (Radar gun is not the correct answer)? MEASURING TAPE – How far did it go STOPWATCH – How long did it take to get there

17. If a X-Country runner finishes a 3 mile race in 18 minutes, what is her average speed. S = D/T S = 3 miles/18 minutes S = 0.167 mi/min

19. Position is the location of a place or an object. Motion is the change in position of an object over time.

20. Motion: Is measured as the distance an object travels between a beginning and an ending point. Time: Is measured as the time needed for an object to travel between a beginning and an ending point.

21. Units: –Distance: m or km for longer distances; cm for shorter distances. –Time: seconds usually although it can also be hours.

22. Speed is a measure of how fast something moves. Speed is a measure of how far something moves in a given time. The greater the speed an object has, the faster it changes position AND the farther it moves in a unit of time.

23. To calculate speed, you need to know both distance and time measurements. Speed = distance S = d/t time The standard metric unit for speed is m/s, but are also given in km/hr.

24. A wheelchair racer completes a 100- meter course in 20 seconds. What is his speed? –What do you know? distance = 100 m time = 20 s -What do you want? speed -Use the formula: S = 100 m = 5 m 20 s s

25. 1.A woman runs 200 m in 25 s. What is her speed? 2.If you travel 100 m in 50 s, what is your speed?

26. Sometimes you are given Speed and you have to determine either a missing distance or time: what do you do? Time is the unknown: Distance/Speed Distance is the unknown: Time x Speed

27. One way to show the motion of an object is by using a graph that plots the distance the object has traveled against time. This kind of graph shows how speed relates to distance and time.

28. Give your graph a TITLE. Time is on the x-axis (horizontal). Be sure to scale properly and include your units! Distance is on the y-axis (vertical). Be sure to scale properly and include your units! The steepness (slope) of the line indicates the speed of the object!

29. Time (seconds) Distance (meters)
