1. Section 1Motion Bellringer, continued 1. For each of the devices above, indicate whether it measures distance, time, or speed. 2. For each of the devices above, indicate which of the following units are possible for a measurement: meters (m), seconds (s), or meters per second (m/s).

2. Section 1Motion SPS8.a Calculate velocity and acceleration.

3. Section 1Motion EQ: How are velocity and acceleration calculated?

4. Section 1Motion Observing Motion How is a frame of reference used to describe motion?

5. Section 1Motion 11-1- Observing Motion frame of reference: a system for specifying the precise location of objects in space and time

6. Section 1Motion 11-1-1 Observing Motion motion: an object’s change in position relative to a reference point

7. Section 1Motion 10-1-3 Observing Motion, continued Distance measures the path taken.

8. Section 1Motion 10-1-4 Observing Motion, continued displacement: the change in position of an object –always includes direction

9. Section 1Motion Observing Motion, continued In the diagram: –yellow line = distance –black arrow = displacement

10. Section 1Motion Speed and Velocity What is the difference between speed and velocity?

11. Section 1Motion 10-1-5 Speed and Velocity speed: the distance traveled divided by the time interval during which the motion occurred

12. Section 1Motion 10-1-6 Speed and Velocity velocity: the speed of an object in a particular direction

13. Section 1Motion 11-1-7 Speed and Velocity, continued Direction is described as positive or negative along the line of motion.

14. Section 1Motion 11-1-8 Speed and Velocity, continued By convention, up and right are usually positive, and left and down are negative.

15. Section 1Motion 11-1-9 Speed and Velocity, continued Combined velocities determine the resultant velocity.

16. Section 1Motion Calculating Speed What do you need to know to find the speed of an object?

17. Section 1Motion 11-1-10 Calculating Speed To calculate speed, you must measure two quantities: the distance traveled and the time it took to travel that distance.

18. Section 1Motion 11-1-11 Calculating Speed, continued Average speed is calculated as distance divided by time.

19. Section 1Motion 11-1-12 Calculating Speed, continued SI unit for speed: meters per second (m/s)

20. Section 1Motion 11-1-13 Calculating Speed, continued constant speed: equal distances in equal amounts of time

21. Section 1Motion 11-1-14 Calculating Speed, continued instantaneous speed: the speed at a given time

22. Section 1Motion 11-1-18 Graphing Motion, continued Motion can be studied using a distance vs. time graph.

23. Section 1Motion 11-1-19 Graphing Motion, continued The slope of a distance vs. time graph equals speed.

24. Section 1Motion 11-1-20 Graphing Skills Calculating Slope The slope of a straight line equals the vertical change divided by the horizontal change.

25. Section 1Motion Graphing Skills Determine the slope of the blue line shown in the distance vs. time graph.

26. Section 1Motion Graphing Skills, continued 1.Choose two points that you will use to calculate the slope. Point 1:t = 1 s and d = 6 m Point 2:t = 4 s and d = 12 m 2.Calculate the vertical change and the horizontal change. vertical change = 12 m – 6 m = 6 m horizontal change = 4 s – 1 s = 3 s 3.Divide the vertical change by the horizontal change. slope = 6 m /3 s = 2 m/s
