1. Average Speed and Acceleration Measuring motion

2. Units for speed  Depends, but will always be a distance unit / a time unit Ex. Cars: mi./h Jets: km/h Snails: cm/s Falling objects: m/s

3. Calculating speed  Sound travels at a speed of 330 m/s. If lightning strikes the ground 1 km away from you, how long will it take for the sound to reach you? U: time K: s= 330 m/s d = 1km P: S = d/t (units don’t match) 1km = 1000 m S = d/t

4. Calculating speed  Sound travels at a speed of 330 m/s. If lightning strikes the ground 1 km away from you, how long will it take for the sound to reach you? S: S = d/t 330 m = s 1000m t 330 m t = 1000ms 330 m T = 3.0 s

5. Average speed  Speed is usually NOT CONSTANT Ex. Cars stop and go regularly Runners go slower uphill than downhill  Average speed = total distance traveled/total time it took.

6. Calculating Average Speed  It took me 1 hour to go 40 km on the highway. Then it took me 2 more hours to go 20 km using the streets. What is the average speed? U: average speed K: Total Distance: 40 km + 20 km = 60 km = d Total Time: 1 h + 2 h = 3 hr = t P:

14. Calculating Average Speed #1 1. What is the average speed after two minutes? U: average speed K: t = 2 mins d = 75 m P: S = total distance total time S: S = 75m = 2 min 37.5 m min

15. Calculating Average Speed #4 4. What is the average speed between two and four minutes? U: average speed between 2-4 mins K: t = 2 mins d 2 mins = 75 m, d 4min = 110m P: s =total distance total time S: s = (110 m – 75m) = 2 mins 35 m 2 mins = 17.5 m mins

16. Velocity  Velocity – the SPEED and DIRECTION of an object. - displacement over time Example:  An airplane moving North at 500 mph  A missile moving towards you at 200 m/s

17. Velocity – speed in a given direction - displacement over time  ex. go 10 miles to the party  hurricane is moving 20 mph – so what if moving away from land  Driving from here to California what would be your velocity? 65 mph W Velocity vs. speed

18. Question  What is the difference between speed and velocity?  Speed is just distance/time. Velocity includes direction as well.

19. Instantaneous Speed - speed at a point in time. -Instantaneous speed is usually changing -If not changing, then speed is ___________. -measured with a speedometer

25. Different Slopes Run = 1 hr Rise = 0 km Rise = 2 km Rise = 1 km Slope = Rise/Run = 1 km/1 hr = 1 km/hr Slope = Rise/Run = 0 km/1 hr = 0 km/hr Slope = Rise/Run = 2 km/1 hr = 2 km/hr

26. Question  Below is a distance vs. time graph of my position during a race. What was my AVERAGE speed for the entire race? Average Speed = Total distance/Total time = 12 km/6 hr = 2 km/hr Run = 6 hr Rise = 12 km

27. Question  What does the slope of a distance vs. time graph show you about the motion of an object?  It tells you the SPEED

29. Acceleration  Acceleration = speeding up  Acceleration – the rate at which velocity changes Can be an:  Increase in speed  Decrease in speed  Change in direction

30. Types of acceleration  Increasing speed Example: Car speeds up at green light  Decreasing speed Example: Car slows down at stop light  Changing Direction Example: Car takes turn (can be at constant speed) screeeeech

38. Graphing Acceleration  Can use 2 kinds of graphs Speed vs. time Distance vs. time

39. Graphing Acceleration: Speed vs. Time Graphs 1)Speed is increasing with time = accelerating 2)Line is straight = acceleration is constant

40. Graphing Acceleration: Speed vs. Time Graphs 1)In Speed vs. Time graphs: Acceleration = Rise/Run = 4 m/s ÷ 2 s = 2 m/s 2 Run = 2 s Rise = 4 m/s

41. Graphing Acceleration: Distance vs. Time Graphs 1)On Distance vs. Time graphs a curved line means the object is accelerating. 2)Curved line also means your speed is increasing. Remember slope = speed.

42. Question Above is a graph showing the speed of a car over time. 1) How is the speed of the car changing (speeding up, Slowing down, or staying the same)? 2) What is this car’s acceleration? 1)The car is slowing down 2)Acceleration = rise/run = -6m/s ÷3s = -2 m/s 2 Run = 3 s Rise = -6 m/s

43. Question: 1)Which line represents an object that is accelerating? The black and red lines represent a objects that are accelerating. Black is going a greater distance each second, so it must be speeding up. Red is going less each second, so must be slowing down Remember: in distance vs. time graphs: curved line = accelerating, flat line = constant speed

45. Momentum: The product of mass x velocity aka-the amount of umph a moving object has p=mv p=momentum m=mass What is the momentum of a 9 gram bullet traveling at 400 m/s? How fast would a 80-kg man travel backwards if hit by a bullet with this momentum (assume the bullet does not go through his body)? Do people really fly backwards when they get shot like in the movies?
