1 9/12 Free Fall, Projectile Motion
Today: examples one new equation HW “9/12 Stunt Man” Due Monday, 9/16 On web or in 213 Witmer for copying HW 9/11 “Projectile” Due Friday, 9/13 Last years practice exam on web and in 213 Exam 1 Thursday 9/ pm Wit 116 and 114

2 Find the Displacement v (m/s)
At what time is the object back where it started from? 10s 10 What is its velocity at this time? -8m/s If it returns to its starting point it must turn around. At what time does it do that? 10 t (s) 6s -10 What is the displacement from 2s to 13s? How many meters were put on the odometer from 2s to 13s?

3 Projectile Motion Example:
An object is thrown with a velocity of 4m/s up and 3m/s west. The acceleration is 10m/s2 directed down. 53 4m/s 3m/s How long is the object in the air?  of every sec. 4 to 4 is a  of 8 t = 0.8 seconds How high does it get? vave,y = 2m/s t = 0.4 to top What is its velocity when it gets back to the ground? (Well, impact speed, not at rest.) Same speed, same angle but below axis now

4 Example 9 page 41 in text From rest a motorcycle accelerates at 2.6m/s/s for a distance of 120m. How long did it take? How fast is it going? Text uses vi2 = vf2 + 2ax but fails to say how we multiply vectors. This equation is off limits for us for this and other reasons but I will give you one to use in these cases. Combine v/ t = a and x/ t = vave with either vi or vf = 0…... Now you can work out t, v, and vf. Get: t = 2 x a

5 Projectile Motion Example:
An object is thrown with a velocity of 4m/s up and 3m/s west. The acceleration is 10m/s2 directed down. tangent 0.4m Find the velocity at the point shown, 0/.4m above the ground. Last example we knew the final velocity by symmetry. Now we don’t Split the motion into two parts, before the highest point and after the highest point.

6 Projectile Motion Example:
An object is thrown with an unknown velocity at 53 above the horizontal, reaching a height of 6.0m. The acceleration is 10m/s2 directed down. 6.0m Find the initial velocity. Split the motion into two parts, before the highest point and after the highest point.
