1. 1 Motion Chapter 9 pages 281-306

2. We are learning to: explain motion We are looking for: an act, process, or instance of changing position through time.

3. 3 Describing and Measuring Motion An object is in motion if the distance from another object is changing. Reference point is a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion.

4. 4 Motion An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. The standard measurement for distance is a meter. The rate of change in motion is called speed.

5. Which of the following describes motion? A.A change in mass over time B.A change in position over mass C.A change in distance over time D.A change in mass over distance

6. How do you know that the car is in motion? A. The distance between the building and car changes. B. The time it takes the car to move is constant. C. The distance between the building and the car stays constant.

7. What is the SI or metric unit for distance? a)Miles b)Grams c)Meter d)Feet

8. What is used for comparison to tell if an object is in motion? a)direction b)reference point c)Speed d)velocity

9. Do this: From what you know about motion- write a paragraph explaining this video clip

10. We are learning to: explain the difference between speed and velocity We are looking for: Speed = change in distance/ change in time. Velocity = speed + direction of an object. Velocity has a direction, while speed does not.

11. 11 Speed The speed of an object is the distance the object travels in one unit of time. Speed is calculated by dividing the distance by the time: Speed=distance/time v=d/t

12. 12 Types of Speed Constant speed is the speed of an object that does not change. Average speed is an average of all the speeds that an object travels during long period of time.

13. 13 Speed vs. Velocity Velocity is speed with a direction. An object that is traveling at a constant speed can change in velocity if the direction is changing.

14. What is the formula needed to calculate speed of an object? A.distance x time B.distance / time C.time / distance D.acceleration x time E.I need help!

15. Joe Shmoe walks 30 meters in 10 seconds. What was his speed? A.5 meters/second B.3 seconds/meter C.3 meters/second D.I need help!

16. What is the only difference between speed and velocity? A.Speed is more complex while velocity is less complex. B.Velocity is time divided by distance and speed is distance divided by time. C.Velocity requires a direction while speed does not. D.Speed and velocity are calculated differently. E.I need help!

17. Which of the following is an acceptable unit for velocity? A.Meters per second B.Feet per hour C.Miles per hour South D.Miles per hour E.I need help!

18. Please copy circle and do this. Speed Fill in three words that closely relate to the one word given. Write a paragraph explaining the significance of each word and how they fit together to form a concept?

19. We are learning to: explain the difference between speed and velocity and interpret graphs. We are looking for: Speed = change in distance/ change in time. Velocity = speed + direction of an object. Velocity has a direction, while speed does not.

20. 20 Graphing Motion Time is on the x-axis of the graph. Distance is on the y-axis of the graph. The steepness of a line on a graph is called the slope.  The faster the motion, the steeper the slope.  A horizontal line represents an object that is not in motion.

21. You are asked to create a graph that shows the speed of an object. What should be plotted on the x and y axes? A.Y axis = speed; X axis = time B.Y axis = time; X axis = distance C.Y axis = distance; X axis = time D.Y axis = time; X axis = acceleration

22. What is this graph showing? A.A person walking at varying speeds. B.A person walking at a constant speed and then stopping to rest. C.A person standing still. D.A person walked three miles.

23. What does this graph show? A.The object is not moving. B.The object is moving at a constant speed. C.The object is moving at a constant speed then stopped to rest. D.The object is moving at varying speeds. Distance 0 Time D

24. What does a steep slope of a line on a distance time graph indicate? A.Speed is fast B.Speed is slow C.The object is not moving D.Speed is changing

25. Graphing Activity Construct a graph in your notes using the data to the right. Be sure to label the x and y axis with correct units. DISTANCE (M)TIME (S) 00 11 32 53 54 55 66 77 88

26. 26 Acceleration Chapter 9, Section 3.

27. 27 What is acceleration? Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes. Acceleration refers to:  Increasing speed  Decreasing speed  Changing direction

28. 28 Calculating Acceleration Acceleration=v f -v i /t  v f is final velocity  v i is initial velocity  t is time

29. 29 Graphing Acceleration Time is on the x-axis Speed is on the y-axis Graphed line rises the same amount each second shows a linear relationship. Graph of distance versus time is a curved line and shows a nonlinear relationship.
