3 WHAT IS POSITION, VELOCITY, AND ACCELERATION? 7/30/2018 1:20 AM 3.7A: Particle Motion 3

4 MOTIONS A. Position is s t or x t ; also known as speed is the rate of motion 1. Label could be known as meters 2. Initially means when t = 0 3. At the origin means x t = 0 B. Velocity is v t = s t ; absolute value rate of motion or known as SPEED and DIRECTION 1. Label could be known as meters/second or speed/time 2. At rest means v t = 0 3. If the velocity of the particle is POSITIVE, then the particle is moving to the right 4. If the velocity of the particle is NEGATIVE, then the particle is moving to the left 5. If the order of the particle CHANGES SIGNS, the velocity must change signs 7/30/2018 1:20 AM 3.7A: Particle Motion 4

5 MOTIONS C. Acceleration known as a t = v t = s t 1. Label could be known as units time 2 2. If the acceleration of the particle is POSITIVE, then the particle is increasing 3. If the acceleration of the particle is NEGATIVE, then the particle is decreasing 4. If a particle Slows Down, signs from v t and s t are different (SIGNS DIFFERENT) 7/30/2018 1:20 AM 3.7A: Particle Motion 5
