  1. Final Velocity after Any Displacement The Last Equation… For now

  2. The Last Equation • If we take the equations that we’ve looked at so far, and do some mathematical hand waving… • We get:

  3. Example • A person pushing a stroller starts from rest, uniformly accelerating at a rate of 0.500 m/s2. What is the velocity of the stroller after it has traveled 4.75m?

  4. Example • A person pushing a stroller starts from rest, uniformly accelerating at a rate of 0.500 m/s2. What is the velocity of the stroller after it has traveled 4.75m? • Givens: a= 0.500 m/s2 vi= 0 m/s Δx=4.75 m vf= ?

  5. Example • A person pushing a stroller starts from rest, uniformly accelerating at a rate of 0.500 m/s2. What is the velocity of the stroller after it has traveled 4.75m? • Givens: a= 0.500 m/s2 vi= 0 m/s Δx=4.75 m vf= ?

  6. Example • A person pushing a stroller starts from rest, uniformly accelerating at a rate of 0.500 m/s2. What is the velocity of the stroller after it has traveled 4.75m? • Givens: a= 0.500 m/s2 vi= 0 m/s Δx=4.75 m vf= ?

  8. Falling Objects Same Equation, Different Direction

  9. A new given… • When an object falls straight down it is in Free Fall. • Objects in Free Fall always have the same acceleration- the acceleration of gravity (g). • a= -9.8 m/s2(this will ALWAYS be ‘a’ for a ‘falling’ object- either thrown up or falling down)

  10. Positive and Negative • Variables that are Negative are in the Downward direction. • Variables that are Positive are in the Upward direction. a= -9.8m/s2 -Δy

  11. Example • Jason hits a volleyball so that it moves with an initial velocity of 6.0 m/s straight upward. If the volleyball starts from 2.0m above the floor, how long will it be in the air before it strikes the floor?

  12. Example • Jason hits a volleyball so that it moves with an initial velocity of 6.0 m/s straight upward. If the volleyball starts from 2.0m above the floor, how long will it be in the air before it strikes the floor? • Givens: a=-9.8m/s2 vi=6.0m/s Δy= -2.0m t=?

  13. Example • Jason hits a volleyball so that it moves with an initial velocity of 6.0 m/s straight upward. If the volleyball starts from 2.0m above the floor, how long will it be in the air before it strikes the floor? • Givens: a=-9.8m/s2 vi=6.0m/s Δy= -2.0m t=? We can’t solve for t right away, so use a 2-step process. Step1- Find vf Step 2- Find t
