1. Ch 2 Velocity ~Motion in One Dimension~

2. Scalar versus Vector Scalar – quantity that only has magnitude –In the previous slide, which is the scalar? Vector – quantity that has magnitude and direction. –In the previous slide, which is the vector? What other examples of scalars can you think of? Vectors?

3. Three friends drive their four wheelers a distance of 100.0 m. Will they end up in the same place? Why or why not. No, 100.0 m is a scalar and does not specify a specific direction. Now suppose they drive 175.0 m due East. Will they end up in the same place? Why or why not. Yes, 100.0 m East is a vector. It has direction Scalar versus Vector

4. Reference Frames A reference frame is an established coordinate system used to define motion. The “zero” mark in a reference frame is called the reference point. Reference Frame Reference Point

5. Position An object’s position pertains to its location in the reference frame (on the number line). –For example the position of the truck. –The position of the bus. Position values can be positive, negative, or zero. The variables used for position are “x 1 ” and “x 2 ”. Common units for position are meters (m). Reference Frame X 35 X -5m 3m3m

6. Distance Distance is the measure of separation between two objects. It is given the variable “d” and is measured in meters (m). If the positions are known, distance is calculated as follows. The distance between the buoys be? The distance from the shore to each buoy is. Distance is a scalar quantity. 012345678910111213141516 13m 3m and 16m 16m 3m3m

7. Displacement When an object is displaced, it is moved from an initial position (d 1 ) to a final position (x 2 ). Displacement (variable  x) is a measure of the change in position of an object after it has moved.

11. Speed Speed: The measure of how fast something is moving. It is the Rate at which distance is covered Speed = distance / time 235

12. Average Velocity Average Velocity – the change in position of an object over a given time interval. Finial positionInitial position Initial time Final time Vector or Scalar??

13. Instantaneous Speed You raced your 4-wheeler over a 30 mile long track in 1.5 hours. What is your average speed? 20mph Watch the animation. Is the speed always 20mph?

14. Instantaneous Speed The actual speed at any “instant” in time. –e.g. The speedometer of a car is the instantaneous speed. Average speed is total distance / total time.

15. Speed versus Velocity Speed has no direction! –e.g. 25 miles per hour (mph) Velocity has magnitude and direction! –e.g. 25 mph west. Which is the vector and which is the scalar?

46. Negative Acceleration We can use small triangles to visualize the distance traveled per increment of time. The second triangle is much smaller that the first triangle. The larger size means that the body traveled more distance in the same increment of time The object was moving slower during the second increment. The object experienced a negative acceleration.

47. Positive Acceleration We can use small triangles to visualize the distance traveled per increment of time. The second triangle is much larger that the first triangle.
