Chapter 1Motion in a straight line
• Mechanics = Study of objects in motion.Position (x) – where you are locatedDistance (d ) – how far you have traveled, regardless of
direction Displacement (x) – where you are in relation to where you
started – 2 parts to mechanics.
• Kinematics = Description of HOW objects move.
• Dynamics = WHY objects move.
2Norah Ali Al- Moneef
1-2 Displacement vs DistanceAverage Velocity
• Displacement is a vector that points from an object’s initial position to its final position
• and has a magnitude that equals the shortest distance between the two positions.
_Only depends on the initial and final positions– Independent of actual paths between the initial and
final positions• Distance is a scalar
– Depends on the initial and final positions as well as the actual path between them

The displacement Δx is a vector that points from the initial position to the final position. SI Unit of Displacement: meter (m) 4Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Comparing Vector & Scalar ValuesDisplacement (a vector) versus distance (a scalar)
LAKE
A
B
We want to get from point A to point B. If we follow the road around the lake our direction is always changing. There is no specific
direction. The distance traveled on the road is a scalar quantity.
A straight line between A and B is the displacement. It has a specificdirection and is therefore a vector.

Displacement between t=1 s and t=5 s
x = 1.0 m - 2.0 m = -1.0 m
This type of x(t) plot shows the position of an object at any time, e.g.,
Position at t=3 s, x(3) = 1 m

Given the train’s initial position and its final position what is the displacement of the train?
What is the distance traveled by the train ?Displacement = f ix x x
7Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Example:A boy travels from D to A,A to B .B to C.C to D
Displacement from D to D ( which are initial and final points ) = 0
Distance traveled = 8 +4+8+4 = 24 m

A student on her way to school walks four blocks south, five blocks west, and another four blocks south, as shown in the diagram. What is the distance she walks ?What is displacement from home to school ?
Distance = 4 blocks + 5 blocks +4 blocks = 13 blocks
Displacement = ( 82 + 5 2 ) ½ = 9.43 blocks

SpeedSpeed can be defined in a couple of ways:
How fast something is movingThe distance covered in a certain amount of timeThe rate of change of the position of an object
Units for speed are: miles / hour (mi/hr)kilometers / hour (km/hr)feet / second (ft/s)
This is the standard unit meters / second (m/s)
18Norah Ali Al- Moneef
The speed has no direction and is always expressed as a positive number
Speed and VelocityThe average speed being the distance traveled divided by the time required to cover the distance:
How far does a jogger run in 1.5 hours (5400 s) if his average speed is 2.22 m /s?
Distance = 5400 s x 2.22 m / s = 11988 m

Graphing Skills
Calculating Slope The slope of a straight line equals the vertical change divided by the horizontal change. Determine the slope of the blue line shown in the distance vs. time graph.
• Motion can be studied using a distance vs. time graph.– time (x-axis) = independent variable
– distance (y-axis) = dependent variable
• The slope of a distance vs. time graph equals speed.
21Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Graphing Skills, continued1. Choose two points that you will use to
calculate the slope. Point 1: t = 1 s and d = 6 m Point 2: t = 4 s and d = 12 m
2. Calculate the vertical change and the horizontal change. vertical change = 12 m – 6 m = 6 m horizontal change = 4 s – 1 s = 3 s
3. Divide the vertical change by the horizontal change.
slope = 6 m /3 s = 2 m/s

Average velocity
•Can be positive or negative•Depends only on initial/final positions•e.g., if you return to original position, average velocity is zero
23Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Speed and velocity are not the same. Velocity requires a directional component and is
therefore a vector quantity.Speed tells us how fast we are going but not which way.
Speed is a scalar (direction doesn’t count!)

Instantaneous velocity
Let time interval approach zero
•Defined for every instance in time•Equals average velocity if v = constant•SPEED is absolute value of velocity
39Norah Ali Al- Moneef
The velocity at any instant is called instantaneous velocity.
If a car moves at a constant velocity... its average and instantaneous velocities have the same value.

Norah Ali Al- Moneef 45
Acceleration is a change in velocity or a change in direction of velocity.
.
First car is accelerating because its velocity is increasing.Second car is accelerating because its direction is changing.Third car is accelerating because its velocity and direction are changing.
Positive/Negative Acceleration
Positive Acceleration –produces an increase in speed in the positive direction, or decrease of speed in the negative direction.Negative Acceleration – produces a decrease in speed in the positive direction or an increase of speed in the negative direction.
46Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Acceleration (increasing speed) and deceleration (decreasing speed) should not be confused with the directions of velocity and acceleration :
47Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Acceleration
There is a difference between negative acceleration and deceleration:
Negative acceleration is acceleration in the negative direction as defined by the coordinate system.
Deceleration occurs when the acceleration is opposite in direction to the velocity.

ExampleA car’s velocity at the top of a hill is 10 m/s. Two seconds later it
reaches the bottom of the hill with a velocity of 26 m/s. What is the acceleration of the car?
The car is increasing its velocity by 8 m/s for every second it is moving.

1. Velocity & acceleration are both vectors. Are the velocity and the acceleration
always in the same direction?
NO!!
If the object is slowing down, the acceleration vector is in the opposite direction of the velocity vector!
58Norah Ali Al- Moneef
2. Velocity & acceleration are vectors. Is it possible for an object to have a zero
acceleration and a non-zero velocity?
YES!!
If the object is moving at a constant velocity, the acceleration vector is zero!

Example
• Distance travelled in first 10 seconds is zero!• Distance travelled in the next 4 seconds is = ½ x 4 x 15 = 30 m• Distance travelled in the final 9 seconds is = 9 x 15 = 135 m• Total distance travelled = 165 m
80Norah Ali Al- Moneef
81Norah Ali Al- Moneef
DecelerationDeceleration
• refers to decreasing speed
• is not the same as negative acceleration
• occurs when velocity and acceleration have opposite signs
Example: A ball thrown up in the air. The velocity is upward but the acceleration is downward. The ball is slowing down as it moves upward. (Once the ball reaches its highest point and starts to fall again, it is no longer decelerating.)
If up is our convention for positive, then both when the ball is rising and falling, the acceleration is negative (during the instant of bounce, the acceleration is positive).
82Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Freely Falling Objects
• A freely falling object is any object moving freely under the influence of gravity alone.
• It does not depend upon the initial motion of the object– Dropped – released from rest– Thrown downward– Thrown upward
83Norah Ali Al- Moneef
1.6 the acceleration of gravity and falling objects
Objects thrown straight up
The acceleration of gravity (g) for objects in free fall at the earth's surface is 9.8 m/s2. ( down ward )
The acceleration of a falling object is due to the force of gravity between the object and the earth.
Galileo showed that falling objects accelerate equally, neglecting air resistance.
Galileo found that all things fall at the same rate.
On the surface of the earth, in a vacuum, all objects accelerate towards the surface of the earth at 9.8 m/s2.
g actually changes as we move to higher altitudes
1.6 the acceleration of gravity and falling objects
84Norah Ali Al- Moneef
a = - g
85Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Acceleration of Freely Falling Object• The acceleration of an object in free fall is directed
downward, regardless of the initial motion• The magnitude of free fall acceleration is g = 9.80 m/s2
– g decreases with increasing altitude– g varies with latitude– 9.80 m/s2 is the average at the Earth’s surface– The italicized g will be used for the acceleration due to gravity
• Not to be confused with g for grams
86Norah Ali Al- Moneef
: The acceleration of gravity is the same for all objects near the surface of the Earth, regardless of mass
What about the mass of an object?
Acceleration of Free Fall• We will neglect air resistance• Free fall motion is constantly accelerated motion in one dimension• Let upward be positive• Use the kinematic equations with ay = -g = -9.80 m/s2
87Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Free Fall – an object dropped• Initial velocity is zero• Let up be positive• Use the kinematic equations
– Generally use y instead of x since vertical• Acceleration is
ay = -g = -9.80 m/s2
vo= 0
a = -g
88Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Free Fall – an object thrown downward• ay = -g = -9.80 m/s2
• Initial velocity 0– With upward being positive, initial
velocity will be negative
vo≠ 0
a = -g
Free Fall -- object thrown upward
• Initial velocity is upward, so positive• The instantaneous velocity at the
maximum height is zero• ay = -g = -9.80 m/s2 everywhere in
the motion
v = 0
vo≠ 0
a = -g
89Norah Ali Al- Moneef
• The motion may be symmetrical– Then tup = tdown
– Then v = - vo
• The motion may not be symmetrical– Break the motion into various parts
• Generally up and down

example2. How long does it take a ball to reach the ground 7.0 m below, if it is thrown straight up with an initial speed of 2.00 m/s?
Now we can see we need a relationship between ∆ y , a, vi, and t∆ y = vit + (0.5)at2
(7.0 m) = (-2.00)t + (0.5)(9.8)t2
t = {1.42, -1.01}
Since t < 0 has no meaning,
t = 1.42 s

A model rocket is launched straight upward with an initial speed of 50.0 m/s. It accelerates with a constant upward acceleration of 2.00 m/s2 until its engines stop at an altitude of 150 m. (a) What can you say about the motion of the rocket
after its engines stop? (b) What is the maximum height reached by the rocket? (c) How long after lift-off does the rocket reach its maximum height? (d) How long is the rocket in the air?
a) What can be said about the motion of the rocket after theengines stop?
The rocket will continue upward, but start to decelerate due to the Earth’s gravitational field until the upward velocity reaches zero. The rocket then begins to fall back to the ground with an acceleration equal to the Earth’s surface gravity

• If the direction of motion is upward, then y is positive; if the direction of motion is downward, then y is negative.
• For an object thrown upward:– Final velocity is 0 m/s (at the highest point).– Acceleration: g = 9.8 m/s2 downward.– Initial velocity is greater than 0 m/s.– Maximum height will be equal to y.
• For an object that is falling downward:– Initial velocity is 0 m/s if the object is dropped.– Initial velocity is greater than 0 m/s and is negative if the object is thrown downward.– Acceleration: g = 9.8 m/s2 downward.– Distance object falls is negative and is equal to y.– The final velocity when the object first contacts the ground will be negative and will be greater
than 0 m/s. Vf is the velocity the object has as it first makes contact with the surface and it is NOT 0 m/s. The object will eventually slow down from vf to 0 m/s as it interacts with the surface, but the object first strikes the surface with velocity vf.
• Velocities in the upward direction are positive.• Velocities in the downward direction are negative.
115Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Summary about free fall
• For an object that is falling downward, the y is negative. When using the vf2 =
vi2 – (2g·y) equation, the final velocity will be positive because you cannot take the square
root of a negative number. You will have to add the negative sign to show that the object is moving downward.
• For an object that is thrown upward from a point and then lands at that point:– vi = - vf time up = time down– Total time = time up + time down– Distance up = distance down
– All of this is true because the object slows down (deceleration) on the way up at the same rate as it speeds up on the way down. Both the deceleration and the acceleration are constant and due to the force of gravity pulling on the object.
• For Problems Involving Ascending (Rising) or Descending (Moving Downward) Objects:– These types of problems have an item being released or falling off of an object (I will
use a hot air balloon as an example) that is either rising or coming down with some speed. The key to solving these problems is to realize that the balloon and any object in the balloon or attached to the balloon is traveling at the same speed at the balloon.
116Norah Ali Al- Moneef
For objects that are rising: – If a balloon is rising at 10 m/s and an object is released from the balloon. The
released object will have an upward velocity of 10 m/s and will be decelerated by gravity as it travels upward. The final velocity on the way up is 0 m/s. The upward distance y traveled by the object will be positive.
– Both the upward distance y and the time up can be determined from this information.

– After the object reaches its highest point, gravity will begin to accelerate the object down toward the ground. The initial velocity is 0 m/s and the distance the object falls will be the distance above the ground at which the object left the balloon plus the upward distance y traveled by the object to the highest point. The y down will be negative to indicate that the motion is downward.

From this information, you can determine the time down and the velocity at which the object will strike the surface (vf). The final velocity should be negative to indicate that the direction of motion is downward.
The total time in the air will be equal to the time up + the time down. The maximum height will be equal to the height of release + y up.
•For objects that are descending (moving downwards) when the object is released:
If a balloon is descending at 10 m/s and an object is released from the balloon. The released object will have a downward velocity of -10 m/s and will be accelerated by gravity as it travels downward. The initial velocity vi and the y down will be negative to indicate that the motion is downward.
From this information, you can determine the time down and the velocity at which the object will strike the surface (vf). The final velocity should be negative to indicate that the direction of motion is downward.
118Norah Ali Al- Moneef
•For objects that are hovering (staying on one place; not rising or moving downward):
–The initial velocity will be zero and you can solve this problem as you would for an object that is dropped downward. The y down will be negative to indicate that the motion is downward.
–From this information, you can determine the time down and the velocity at which the object will strike the surface (vf). The final velocity should be negative to indicate that the direction of motion is downward.

Speed, Velocity, & Acceleration
• Speed (v) – how fast you go• Velocity (v) – how fast and which way;
the rate at which position changes• Average speed ( v ) – distance / time• Acceleration (a) – how fast you speed
up, slow down, or change direction; the rate at which velocity changes
120Norah Ali Al- Moneef
Speed vs. Velocity
• Speed is a scalar (how fast something is moving regardless of its direction). Ex: v = 20 mph
• Speed is the magnitude of velocity.• Velocity is a combination of speed and direction.
Ex: v = 20 mph at 15 south of west
• The symbol for speed is v.• The symbol for velocity is type written in bold: v or
hand written with an arrow: v
