  1. One-Dimensional Motion

  2. Problem Solving • Identify • Read problem carefully • Make a sketch • Strategize • Set up • Choose appropriate equations • Execute • Solve the equations • Evaluate

  3. Scalars and Vectors • Scalar – a number, (usually) with units • Mass, length, time • Vector – a quantity with a numerical value (with units) and direction

  4. Coordinate System

  5. Distance and Displacement

  6. ConcepTest 2.1 Walking the Dog You and your dog go for a walk to the park. On the way, your dog takes many side trips to chase squirrels or examine fire hydrants. When you arrive at the park, do you and your dog have the same displacement? 1) yes 2) no

  7. ConcepTest 2.1 Walking the Dog You and your dog go for a walk to the park. On the way, your dog takes many side trips to chase squirrels or examine fire hydrants. When you arrive at the park, do you and your dog have the same displacement? 1) yes 2) no Yes, you have the same displacement. Since you and your dog had the same initial position and the same final position, then you have (by definition) the same displacement. Follow-up: Have you and your dog traveled the same distance?

  8. Average Speed and Velocity • Average speed = distance / elapsed time • Average velocity = displacement / elapsed time

  9. ConcepTest 2.3 Position and Speed 1) yes 2) no 3) it depends on the position If the position of a car is zero, does its speed have to be zero?

  10. ConcepTest 2.3 Position and Speed 1) yes 2) no 3) it depends on the position If the position of a car is zero, does its speed have to be zero? No, the speed does not depend on position; it depends on the change of position. Since we know that the displacement does not depend on the origin of the coordinate system, an object can easily start at x = –3 and be moving by the time it gets to x = 0.

  11. ConcepTest 2.6b Cruising Along II 1) more than 40 mi/hr 2) equal to 40 mi/hr 3) less than 40 mi/hr You drive 4 miles at 30 mi/hr and then another 4 miles at 50 mi/hr. What is your average speed for the whole 8-mile trip?

  12. ConcepTest 2.6b Cruising Along II 1) more than 40 mi/hr 2) equal to 40 mi/hr 3) less than 40 mi/hr You drive 4 miles at 30 mi/hr and then another 4 miles at 50 mi/hr. What is your average speed for the whole 8-mile trip? It is not 40 mi/hr! Remember that the average speed is distance/time. Since it takes longer to cover 4 miles at the slower speed, you are actually moving at 30 mi/hr for a longer period of time! Therefore, your average speed is closer to 30 mi/hr than it is to 50 mi/hr. Follow-up: How much further would you have to drive at 50 mi/hr in order to get back your average speed of 40 mi/hr?

  13. x vs. t graph

  14. Average velocity on x vs. t graph

  15. Instantaneous Velocity

  16. x t ConcepTest 2.13a Graphing Velocity I 1) it speeds up all the time 2) it slows down all the time 3) it moves at constant velocity 4) sometimes it speeds up and sometimes it slows down 5) not really sure The graph of position versus time for a car is given below. What can you say about the velocity of the car over time?

  17. x t ConcepTest 2.13a Graphing Velocity I 1) it speeds up all the time 2) it slows down all the time 3) it moves at constant velocity 4) sometimes it speeds up and sometimes it slows down 5) not really sure The graph of position versus time for a car is given below. What can you say about the velocity of the car over time? The car moves at a constant velocity because the x vs. t plot shows a straight line. The slope of a straight line is constant. Remember that the slope of x versus t is the velocity!

  18. ConcepTest 2.13b Graphing Velocity II x t The graph of position vs. time for a car is given below. What can you say about the velocity of the car over time? 1) it speeds up all the time 2) it slows down all the time 3) it moves at constant velocity 4) sometimes it speeds up and sometimes it slows down 5) not really sure

  19. ConcepTest 2.13b Graphing Velocity II x t The graph of position vs. time for a car is given below. What can you say about the velocity of the car over time? 1) it speeds up all the time 2) it slows down all the time 3) it moves at constant velocity 4) sometimes it speeds up and sometimes it slows down 5) not really sure • The car slows down all the time because the slope of the x vs. t graph is diminishing as time goes on. Remember that the slope of x vs. t is the velocity! At large t, the value of the position x does not change, indicating that the car must be at rest.

  21. v vs. t graphs

  22. Graphical Interpretation of Acceleration

  23. Acceleration and Deceleration

  24. Demo Prediction • You’ve seen the cart move up and down the table. At the highest point in the cart’s motion: 1) both v = 0 and a = 0 2) v ¹ 0, but a = 0 3) v = 0, but a ¹ 0 4) both v ¹ 0 and a ¹ 0 5) not really sure

  25. ConcepTest 2.14a v versus t graphs I A v t B 1) decreases 2) increases 3) stays constant 4) increases, then decreases 5) decreases, then increases Consider the line labeled B in the v versus t plot. How does the speed change with time for line B?

  27. Motion with constant acceleration

  28. Constant Acceleration Equations of Motion

  29. TAPPS • Think Aloud Pair Problem Solving • Get into pairs – choose one person as THINKER and one as LISTENER • Say everything that comes to mind as you’re trying to solve the problem • LISTENERS should only intervene when the THINKER is making a mistake

  30. Example • Two cars drive on a straight highway. At time t = 0, car 1 passes mile marker 0 traveling due east with a speed of 20.0 m/s. At the same time, car 2 is 1.0 km east of mile marker 0 traveling at 30.0 m/s due west. Car 1 is speeding up with an acceleration of magnitude 2.5 m/s2 and car 2 is slowing down with an acceleration of magnitude 3.2 m/s2 • Write x vs. t equations of motion for both cars • At what time do the cars pass next to one another?

  31. TAPPS Example • When a chameleon captures an insect, its tongue can extend 16 cm in 0.1 s. • Find the magnitude of the tongue’s acceleration, assuming it is constant.

  32. Free Fall

  33. Air Resistance

  34. Lava Bombs

  35. TAPPS Problem • A glaucous-winged gull, ascending straight upward at 5.20 m/s, drops a shell when it is 12.5 m above the ground. • What is the magnitude and direction of the shell’s acceleration just after it is released? • Find the maximum height above the ground reached by the shell • How long does it take for the shell to hit the ground? • What is the speed of the shell at this time?
