1. SPEED and VELOCITY Speed is how far an object travels in a given time period. Speed is how far an object travels in a given time period. S= d/tS= d/t Speed is a scalar quantitySpeed is a scalar quantity Velocity is the rate at which displacement changes Velocity is the rate at which displacement changes V= Δd/ΔtV= Δd/Δt Velocity is a vector quantity.Velocity is a vector quantity. Uniform Motion occurs when the speed and the direction of a moving body remains the same. Uniform Motion occurs when the speed and the direction of a moving body remains the same.

2. Average vs. Instantaneous Velocity Average velocity is the change in displacement over the given time interval. On a displacement-time graph the slope of the line connecting the initial and final positions Instantaneous velocity is the velocity of the object at any given time. On a displacement-time graph the slope of the tangent line (due to the limit theory)

3. Sample Problem If a car travels east for a 12 km in a time of 3 minutes, what is the cars average velocity? If a car travels east for a 12 km in a time of 3 minutes, what is the cars average velocity? V=Δd/Δt V=Δd/Δt Δd= 12 kmΔd= 12 km Δt = 3 minutesΔt = 3 minutes V= 12 km/ 3min = 4km/minV= 12 km/ 3min = 4km/min

5. ACCELERATION Acceleration is the rate at which the velocity of a body changes. Acceleration is the rate at which the velocity of a body changes. Formula Formula a= v f - v i / Δta= v f - v i / Δt V f = final veloictyV f = final veloicty V i = initial velocityV i = initial velocity

6. Sample Problem What is the acceleration of a car whose velocity increases from15 m/s to 25 m/s in 5 s. What is the acceleration of a car whose velocity increases from15 m/s to 25 m/s in 5 s. v f= 25 m/sv i = 15 m/s Δt=5s v f= 25 m/sv i = 15 m/s Δt=5s a=(25-15)/5= 10m/s/5s= 2m/s 2 a=(25-15)/5= 10m/s/5s= 2m/s 2
