2 Motion in a Straight Line

3 KINEMATICS - the process of motion is integral to the description of matter characteristics - all matter is moving - therefore a method must be formulated for accuracy

4 DISTANCE vs. DISPLACEMENT 1. DISTANCE - defined as the magnitude or length of motion - NO DIRECTION INDICATED symbol = d 2. DISPLACEMENT - magnitude and direction of motion symbol = s

5 Measurement of Speed Total distance : the sum of the all changes in position Time : an interval of change measured in seconds Position : Separation between the object and the reference point

6 Types of Speed Rest : no change in motion Instantaneous: the current speed of an object at a point of time Average : two ways to determine the “mean” movement Total distance / Total time Sum of the individual speeds / number of speed measurements Speed is a scalar quantity

7 Velocity Displacement : the change in position based on distance and Direction Velocity : is the change in Distance per unit time with a specific direction Velocity is a vector quantity Velocity also has the following conditions: Average Instantaneous

8 Constant Speed An object could be moving at a steady rate. Thus, its average and instantaneous speed would be the same! GBS Physics - speed vs. velocity

9 Question: A car is traveling at a constant 60mi/hr in a circular path. Does it have a constant speed? Does it have a constant velocity?

10 Problem Solving G – write down what information is given (with units) U – Identify what you have to find – the unknown ( with units ) E – Identify an equation (relationship) that equates the givens and unknown S – Solve the equation for the unknown (algebraically before substituting any of the "givens" with their units because there will be fewer mistakes in copying the units until the last step). S – Substitute the givens ( with units ) and find the answer.

11 Sample Problem #1 If a car is traveling at an average speed of 60 kilometers per hour, how long does it take to travel 12 kilometers? GIVEN: Ave Speed = 60 km/hr Distance = 12 km UNKNOWN: Time - ? EQUATION : v = d/t

12 Sample Problem #1 If a car is traveling at an average speed of 60 kilometers per hour, how long does it take to travel 12 kilometers? SOLVE : v = d/t => t = d/v SUBSTITUTION: t = 12km / 60km/h t =.2 h t = 12 min t = 720 sec

13 Sample Problem #2 A high speed train travels 454 km in 7200 seconds. What is the train’s average speed? GIVEN: Time = 7200 s (always a good idea to convert to (base / fundamental units) - time to seconds- if needed!) Distance = 454 km - (always a good idea to convert to (base / fundamental units) - km to meters- if needed!) 454 km = 454000 m UNKNOWN: Ave Speed - ? EQUATION : v = d/t

14 Sample Problem #2 A high speed train travels 454 km in 7200 seconds. What is the train’s average speed? SOLVE : v = d/t => v = d/t SUBSTITUTION: v = 454km / 7200s (with units!) v = 454000m / 7200s v = 63 m/s

15 Example: If sun light takes about 8 minutes to go from the sun to the earth, how far away from the sun is the earth? Hint: light travels at 186,000 miles per second!!! GIVEN: Time = 8 min (always a good idea to convert to (base / fundamental units) - time to seconds- if needed!) 8 min = 480 s Ave Speed = 186,000 mi/s UNKNOWN: Distance - ? EQUATION : v = d/t

16 Example: If sun light takes about 8 minutes to go from the sun to the earth, how far away from the sun is the earth? Hint: light travels at 186,000 miles per second!!! SOLVE : v = d/t => d = vt SUBSTITUTION: d = 186,000 mi/s X 480s (with units!) d = 89,000,000mi

17 Summary Speed is based on position change relative to the origin Scalar and Vectors quantities are used to describe motion Calculations must include formula, substitution of proper units, and final solution in the MKS system.

18 Relativity of Velocity Theory, developed in the early 20th century, which originally attempted to account for certain anomalies in the concept of relative motion, but which in its ramifications has developed into one of the most important basic concepts in physical science Velocity changes when compared to a frame of reference

19 Acceleration Acceleration: rate of change of velocity Acceleration describes how fast an objects speed is changing per amount of time.

20 Types of Acceleration Acceleration, also known as linear acceleration, rate at which the velocity of an object changes per unit of time. A =  v/t ( Average Acceleration) Uniform Acceleration : the constant rate of change in Velocity ( Free Fall ) 9.81 m/s 2 (use 10 m/s 2 in multiple choice)

21 If an object has a constant velocity, then its acceleration would be zero. If an object is slowing down, it is decelerating: or a NEGATIVE acceleration

51 As previously learned, a plot of velocity-time can be used to determine the acceleration of an object (the slope). We will now learn how a plot of velocity versus time can also be used to determine the displacement of an object. For velocity versus time graphs, the area bound by the line and the axes represents the displacement. Determining the Area on a v-t Graph http://www.glenbrook.k12.il.us/gbssci/phys/Class/1DKin/U1L4e.html

52 The shaded area is representative of the displacement during from 0 seconds to 6 seconds. This area takes on the shape of a rectangle can be calculated using the appropriate equation. Area = b * h Area = (6 s) * (30 m/s) Area = 180 m

53 The shaded area is representative of the displacement during from 0 seconds to 4 seconds. This area takes on the shape of a triangle can be calculated using the appropriate equation. Area = 0.5 * b * h Area = (0.5) * (4 s) * (40 m/s) Area = 80 m

54 The shaded area is representative of the displacement during from 2 seconds to 5 seconds. This area takes on the shape of a trapezoid can be calculated using the appropriate equation. Area = 0.5 * b * (h 1 + h 2 ) Area = (0.5) * (3 s) * (20 m/s + 50 m/s) Area = 105 m
