7. Motion in One DimensionSection 1 Displacement - Sign Conventions Right (or east) ---> + Left (or west) ---> – Up (or north) ----> + Down (or south) ---> –

8. Motion in One DimensionSection 1 Average Velocity The units can be determined from the equation. –SI Units: m/s –Other Possible Units: mi/h, km/h, cm/year Average velocity is displacement divided by the time interval.

9. Motion in One DimensionSection 1 Classroom Practice Problems A car travels 36 km to the north in 30.0 min. Find the average velocity in km/min and in km/h. –Answer: 1.2 km/min to the north or 72 km/h to the north A car travels 100.0 km to the east. If the first half of the distance is driven at 50.0 km/h and the second half at a 100.0 km/h, what is the average velocity? –Answer: 66.7 km/h to the east

10. Motion in One DimensionSection 1 Speed Speed does not include direction while velocity does. Speed uses distance rather than displacement. In a round trip, the average velocity is zero but the average speed is not zero.

11. Motion in One DimensionSection 1 Graphing Motion How would you describe the motion shown by this graph? –Answer: Constant speed (straight line) What is the slope of this line? –Answer: 1 m/s What is the average velocity? –Answer: 1 m/s

13. Motion in One DimensionSection 1 Instantaneous Velocity Velocity at a single instant of time –Speedometers in cars measure instantaneous speed. Determined by finding the slope at a single point (the slope of the tangent) What is the slope of the tangent line at t = 3.0 s? –Answer: approximately 12 m/s What is the instantaneous velocity at t = 3.0 s? –Answer: approximately 12 m/s

14. Motion in One DimensionSection 1 Now what do you think? Is the book on your instructor’s desk in motion? –How does your answer depend on the frame of reference? What are some common terms used to describe the motion of objects?

15. Motion in One DimensionSection 2 Graphing Velocity The slope (rise/run) of a velocity/time graph is the acceleration. –Rise is change in v –Run is change in t This graph shows a constant acceleration. Average speed is the midpoint.

16. Motion in One DimensionSection 2 Graph of v vs. t for a train Describe the motion at points A, B, and C. Answers –A: accelerating (increasing velocity/slope) to the right –B: constant velocity to the right –C: negative acceleration (decreasing velocity/slope) and still moving to the right

17. Motion in One DimensionSection 3 Graphing Free Fall Based on your present understanding of free fall, sketch a velocity-time graph for a ball that is tossed upward (assuming no air resistance). –Is it a straight line? –If so, what is the slope? Compare your predictions to the graph to the right.

30. Motion in One DimensionSection 3 Short Response 10. In one or two sentences, explain the difference between displacement and distance traveled.

31. Motion in One DimensionSection 3 Short Response 10. In one or two sentences, explain the difference between displacement and distance traveled. Answer: Displacement measures only the net change in position from starting point to end point. The distance traveled is the total length of the path followed from starting point to end point and may be greater than or equal to the displacement.
