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
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
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
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...

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?
