Clicker Quiz #3 • A tail wind • Adds to your velocity b) subtracts from your velocity 2) Light is the fastest thing in the universe • True b) False 3) What is positive? • Up b) down c) right d) left e) more than one of these 4) Is there such thing as absolute motion? a) Yes b) No
Key Variables - Review Velocity – vector indicating the rate at which displacement changes with time. initial velocity (vi) – final velocity (vf) -
Key Variable - New Definition – vector indicating the rate of change in velocity. Measured – indirectly using velocity, distance and time or using an ACCELEROMETER Units – m/s^2 almost never ft/s^2
Key equation • Change in velocity a = Δv t
Teacher Example C Pick three ways you can safely accelerate a car and describe how each is classified as acceleration.
Teacher Example B Calculate the acceleration of a car that speeds up from rest to a velocity of 34 m/s east in 4 seconds
Teacher Example A Determine the time it takes for a car to accelerate from 20 to 60 mph if it can accelerate at 8.6 m/s2
Acceleration Examples How are these examples of acceleration?
Student Example C Pick an activity other than driving and show three ways that you accelerate in that activity and why you would accelerate.
Student Example B Calculate the final velocity of a car if it travels at 4 m/s west and accelerates at 1.2 m/s2 for 13 seconds
Student Example A Calculate the time it takes for a car to come to a stop if initially travelling at 60 mph and capable of braking at 8 m/s^2
Student Example A • Determine the final velocity if a car accelerates from 5 mph at 8.0 m/s^2 for 1 minute.
