4 One dimensional motion is the simplest form of motion Example : A train can go only in one dimension forward – backward along the tracks

5 Think about the train….. What about the motion around the train???

6 Think about the train….. What about the motion around the train???

7 Think about the train….. What about the motion around the train???

8 We choose a reference point at a specific time and place against which we will measure changes in position of the train

10 A system for specifying the precise location of an object in space and time STATION 1

11 As an object moves from one position to another, the length of the straight line drawn from its initial to the final position is called:

12 -Each arrows shows the magnitude (size) and direction of a series of a dog’s trips -The arrows are called VECTORS

13 -To give the direction of a vector we use two conventions:

20 What is the geckos' displacement?

21 What if I changed zero on the meter stick to the gecko’s initial position? What would be its displacement then?

22 Displacement vs Distance WORLD MAP Homework!!

23 -To determine the angle of the resulting displacement,

24 we use TRIGONOMETRY

25 GRAPHICALLY Pythagorean Theorem and tangent function
