1 MECHANICS DESCRIBING MOVEMENT Instantaneous speed & velocity Graphs of Motion Equations of Motion

2 QUICK REVISION DISTANCE DISPLACEMENT VECTORS SCALARS SPEED VELOCITY ACCELERATION TICKER TIMERS

3 THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN: AVERAGE AND INSTANTANEOUS

4 INSTANTANEOUS SPEED Equation? Vector / Scalar? Unit?

5 INSTANTANEOUS SPEED Definition: The speed of an object at a specific moment in time. The distance divided by a infinitesimal time interval. The magnitude The magnitude of the instantaneous of the instantaneous velocity. velocity. Speedometer Speed trap

6 INSTANTANEOUS VELOCITY Equation? Vector / Scalar? Unit?

7 INSTANTANEOUS VELOCITY Definition: The velocity of an object at a specific moment in time. The displacement divided by by an an infinitesimal time interval. interval. Magnitude of instantaneous speed and velocity are the same. Direction is = to that of a tangent to the path that the object is following.

8 GRAPHS OF MOTION Graphs used to describe the movement of an object. Plot points: X not Independent variable x axis Dependant variable Y-axis

9 GRAPHS OF MOTION 3 TYPES Position-time graph Velocity-time graph Acceleration-time graph

10 REPRESENTING CONSTANT VELOCITY Time (s) Total displacement from start (m)

11 REPRESENTING CONSTANT VELOCITY Choose any 2 co-ordinates from your velocity- time graph: ( ; ) ( ; ) Use these to calculate the gradient of your straight line.

12 REPRESENTING CONSTANT VELOCITY Using your velocity time graph, calculate the area of the shape made by the graph and the x-axis.

13 REPRESENTING POSITIVE ACCELERATION (1) on a position time graph You re speeding up INSTANTANEOUS velocity? AVERAGE velocity?

14 The gradient of an intersecting line joining 2 points in a parabolic x-t graph gives the average velocity of the object between time t1 and t2. The gradient of a tangent to a parabolic x-t graph gives the instantaneous velocity of the object at time t1

15 REPRESENTING POSITIVE ACCELERATION (2) on a velocity time graph You re speeding up

16 REPRESENTING POSITIVE ACCELERATION (3) on an acceleration time graph You re speeding up

17 REPRESENTING NEGATIVE ACCELERATION (1) on a position time graph You re slowing down.

51 TB. pupil PG 230 EXAMPLE 1 A car starts from rest and accelerates in a southern direction at 3m. s Calculate the velocity of the car after 10 seconds. 2. Calculate the distance covered in the 10 seconds. 3. Calculate the average velocity of the car.

52 TB. pupil PG 230 EXAMPLE 2 A motorbike rider is riding at 40m. s 1 east when he needs to brake for a red traffic light. He needs to stop within 200m. 1. Calculate his acceleration. 2. Calculate the time it will take him to rest.

53 pupil EXAMPLE 3 A car is travelling at a constant velocity of 20m. s 1 on a long, straight road. The driver suddenly sees a man standing in the middle of the road 140m away from the car. It takes him 2 seconds before he slams on brakes. 1. Calculate how far the car travels during the 2 seconds before the driver applies the brakes. 2. Calculate the minimum acceleration the car will need to stop in time. 3. Calculate the total time taken to come to a stop from the moment the driver saw the man.

54 THINGS TO REMEMBER starts from rest comes to a stop V i = 0 m. s 1 V f = 0 m. s 1 speeds up / accelerates a = + slows down constant velocity a = a = 0 m. s 2 TB. pg 235
