  • 1. Equations of motion

2. Motion in one dimension 3. What is motion?Motion is when an object changes position.How do you know that the race car moved? It changed its position onthe track. 4. How can you tell something haschanged position?Inorder to see if something has changed position (motion) you need a reference point. For example, the starting or finishing line of a racetrack.Click to edit Master text stylesSecond levelThird levelFourth levelFifth level 5. PositionIfsomething moves, it constantly changes position.When you describe position, you refer to a point of reference/origin (zero).When you have chosen your point of reference all positions will be chosen relative to this point of origin.Position is the place where an object is as observed from a point of reference. 6. Frame of referencePoint of reference -3 m/3m to the left/ 3m W+5 m /5m to the right/ 5m E X-axisLinear movement:when we need only one axis.Y-axis (not used simultaneouslywith x-axis in grade 10) 7. GPS24 satellitesAt least 4 sattelites will be visible at any time from any pointEach sattelite sends a signal to GPS receiversThe position of the receier can be determinedPosition is given in latitude, longitude and height 8. Distance anddisplacement 9. What is distance?Easy question!Distance is how far an object has moved.We measure distance in METERS!Distance is the actual path length that is taken. 10. Distance vs Displacement B DistanceDisplacementA 11. What is displacement?Suppose a runner jogs north to the 50-m mark and then turns around and runs back south 30-m.Total distance is 80-m.Two directions - north and south.Displacement is the distance and direction. 12. DisplacementDisplacement is the change in position of the object.In other words, a straight line.The magnitude of the displacement will be smaller than or equal to the distance that was covered.Displacement will be represented by x on the horisontal line, and y on the vertical. 13. Calculating distance and displacement x = xf xi = _m Lets try this: You move from your front porch to your neighbours house 400 m away. Now calculate your displacement. Moving from your front door (xi = 0 m ), and to your neighbours house (xf = 400 m). x = xf xi = 400 0 = 400 m to the right 14. Calculating distance and displacement IINow, you move from your neighbours houseand move back towards your house, but movebeyond and travel to the cafe 600 m from yourhome. Now calculate your displacement fromthe moment you left home.Moving from your front door (xi = 0 m ), and tothe cafe (xf = 600 m).x = xf xi = 600 0 = 600 m to the left. 15. Scalars and vectorsScalars are quantities that has only magnitude.Examples: distance time mass volume, energy, work andpotential differenceVectors are quantities that posesses bothmagnitude and direction.Examples: displacement velocity acceleration force weight 16. Speed and velocity 17. What is speed?Speedis the distance an object travels over time.Any change over time is called a RATE.Speed is the rate at which distance is traveled. 18. SPEED FORMULASpeed= Distance / Timev = x / tClick to edit Master text stylesSecond levelThird levelFourth levelFifth level 19. Speed Example Suppose you ran 2 km in 10 min. What is your rate? v = x / tv= 2 km /10 min.v= 0.2 km/min.Click to edit Master text styles Remember the units!Second levelThird levelFourth levelFifth level 20. Constant SpeedWhatdoes constant mean?Ifyou are driving on the highway and you set your cruise control, you are driving at a constant speed.Whatwould a constant speed graph look like? 21. Constant Speed Graph 22. Do you always go the same speed?No! Most of the time you are increasing speed, decreasing speed, or stopping completely!Think about driving a car or riding a bike!Click to edit Master text stylesSecond levelThird levelFourth levelFifth level 23. What would a changing speed graph looklike? 24. What is average speed?How do you find an average?Averagespeed is the total distance traveled over the total timev = xtotal / ttotal 25. What is Instantaneous speed?What does a speedometer in a car do? It shows how fast a car is going at one point in time or at one instant.Instantaneous speed is the speed at a given point in time. 26. What is Velocity?Speed is how fast something is moving.Velocity is how fast something is moving and in what direction it is moving.Why is this important? Hurricanes Airplanes 27. Speed or Velocity?Ifa car is going around a racetrack, its speed may be constant (the same), but its velocity is changing because it is changing direction.

Speed or Velocity?Escalatorshave the same speed (constant), but have different velocities because they are going in different directions.

AccelerationWhen an objects velocity changes, it accelerates.Acceleration shows the change in velocity during a period of time.Acceleration = change in velocity / timea = v/t = vf - vitf-tims-2 31. Acceleration IIMagnitudeis calculated using the formula.The direction can be determined as long as motion is in one dimension.v = increase, a in the same direction.v = decrease, a in opposite direction. 32. Positive accelerationPositive values show that the ais in the same direction as themotion. An increase in v.Negative accelerationNegative values show that the a is in the opposite direction fromthe motion. A decrease in v.Constant or uniform accelerationWe only use constant acceleration. Because wework with constant a, instantaneous and averageacceleration will always be the same. This meanswe use the same formula to calculate all threetypes of acceleraion. 33. Describing motion withdiagrams 34. What is a motion diagram? Click to edit Master text styles Second level Third level Fourth level Fifth level 35. Images are equal distances apart. Object occupies a single position. Object is at rest. Constant velocity.Increase in distance between images. Decrease in distance between images. Moving faster, accelerating. Moving slower, decelerating. 36. Sketches and usesSketch a row of dots to represent the object.Refer to previous slide to get the spaces right.Draw a vector from each dot to show velocity.If acceleration occurs, add one more vector to illustrate acceleration. 37. The first dot is always labeled zero, and the time elapsedBetween the dots are the same throughout.ABCD E0 1 2 34 tAB = tBC = tCD = tDE 38. Ticker timer and ticker tape Frequency: number of dots that the timers hammer makes each second. Frequency of 50 Hz. Period: the time it takes from dot to the next. 1/50 = 0,02s. Time interval: describes a collection of periods. Done in 1-dot, 5-dot or 10-dot intervals. 39. Determine the magnitude of the avgvelocityYouwill need x and t for each specific interval.x = determined by measuring spaces between intervals.t = determined by multiplying the spaces with the period. 40. ExampleIn the first tape, John is moving steadily while pulling aticker tape. Calculate Johns average velocity. 41. Determining the avg accelerationYou need four sets of information:vf, vi, tf and tivf vi = v for first interval, and for last interval.tf ti = t where time is relative to the time in the centre of the first and the last interval. 42.

The formulas vf = vi +atx = vit + at2 x = (vf2+ vi)t Vf2 = vi2 + 2ax 63. PrinciplesWhenusing v, a and x, remember that they are vectors, so take direction into account. Original direction of motion = +.If an object starts from rest, vi = 0 m/sIf an object stops, vf = 0 m/sIf chosen direction is +, then all v, and x substitutions are +. If velocity increases, it is +.If velocity decreases, it is -.Equations can only be used for motion with constant acceleration in a straight line.Work in SI units.
