1 Unit 3: Kinematics Uniform Rectilinear Motion (velocity is constant) Uniform Accelerated Rectilinear Motion The Motion of Projectiles Jan 31 8:19 PM Chapter 9: Uniform Rectilinear Motion Position: point of an object relative to something else. involves direction therefore it is a vector except that it is one dimensional. The direction is along the x axis Frame of reference. We talk about position as positive or negative. We often place the origin at the origional position and when there is movement we can then talk about displacement relative to the original position. Displacement: Change in position Also one dimension vector : Positive or negative Velocity: rate of change in position v = change in positon/change in time Feb 4 8:03 PM 1

2 Graphical Representation of position as a function of time. We always place time on the x axis (independent) position on the y axis (dependent) Positive displacement will give a positive slope Negative displacement will give a negative slope. Example position (km) John starts at position A. He moves forward 10km in 2 minutes He returns to his original position in 4 minutes. He then moves in the other direction and travels 20 km in 5 minutes. time (min) Graph his position as a function of time. Feb 4 8:17 PM position (m) Describe Sylvie's position as she travels along a straight road. time (min) Feb 4 8:36 PM 2

3 position (m) What can you say about how fast Sylvie is moving? time (min) Feb 4 8:36 PM Graphical representation of position as a function of time Uniform rectilinear motion is motion in a straight line at a constant velocity. We can break down a car trip into intervals and graph the relationship displacement (m) 1 5 time (s) The tram backs up 2.5 m then moves forward 4.5 m for a final displacement of 2m. How long did it take? 25 s. The displacement is initially negative and then positive. It has direction! How fast was it travelling? Part 1 2.5m/5s = 0.5 m/s Jan 9 3:29 PM 3

4 Velocity on a position time graph The change in y values divided by the change in x values Δy/Δx = slope In the case of distance over time, change in distance/change in time is m/s which is velocity Velocity can be positive or negative Velocity is negative that means that displacement is negative: remember it is relative and we use the x axis to describe displacement, (+) is to the right (-) is left. Example: a car drives forward, then turns around a returns to the initial position (or think of it as backing up). Dec 9 5:50 PM We can graph change in position versus time... Where does Thomas start? Where does he finish? Position in meters 5 A 1 B C D time in minutes When is the velocity (+)? When is the velocity (-)? What can we say about the slope? (what does it represent?) Dec 9 5:35 PM 4

5 We can graph change in position versus time... How fast is he travelling? Position in meters 5 A 1 B C D time in minutes Interval A: Interval B: Interval C: Interval D: Dec 9 5:35 PM Graphical representation of velocity as a function of time Represents motion The slope will by change in velocity over time: acceleration The displacement can be found by finding the area under the curve I Feb 4 8:50 PM 5

6 y 10 9 What is this graph telling us? Velocity m/s x time (s) What is happening in terms of displacement? Dec 5 8:36 AM Velocity m/s y What is the acceleration? x time (s) Dec 5 8:36 AM 6

7 graphs: slope of a line Pay attention to the variables What does the y axis represent? What does the x axis represent? If the function is linear then the slope = rise/run If the graph is displacement versus time: slope = Δd/Δt = d2 - d1/ t2 - t1 = velocity If the graph is velocity versus time: slope = Δv / Δt = v 2 - v1/ t2 - t1 = acceleration Jan 31 8:22 PM Velocity (m/s) A B C D E time(s) What is the initial velocity? Find the Velocity for each interval A B B C C D D E Feb 4 9:06 PM 7

11 Aristotle 4th century BC 2 kinds of motion violent (throw, push) natural (fire rised, stones fall down) Oresme 14 the century predicted that if the initial velocity was zero, distance was proportional to time squared Jan 24 10:29 AM Galileo Did experiments: marble on the inclined plane he noticed a marble on an inclined plane took more time than a marble dropped (free fall) "the gravitational force has been diluted" Jan 24 7:59 AM 11

16 UARM: constant acceleration (rate of change of velocity is linear) velocity vs time graphs Slope v Δv/Δt gives acceleration t Area Δv*Δt = displacement Jan 31 8:42 PM y d t = 2s t = 5s x UARM: position vs time Velocity is changing so the curve for position vs time is quadratic. We can still find instantaneous velocity take the tangent of the curve tangent: a straight line (linear) with the same slope as the curve at that moment in time. to t find the slope: take 2 points on the tangent line and find it using the slope formula a = Jan 31 8:39 PM 16
