CONCEPT: REVIEW OF VECTORS AND SCALARS

● Remember: When you take measurements, you always get the size (Magnitude, how much).

- Measurements with direction → [ Vectors | Scalars ]; without direction → [ Vectors | Scalars ]

Measurement Quantity Magnitude? Direction? Vector/Scalar

“It’s 60°F outside” Temperature [ Vector | Scalar ]

“I pushed with 100N north” Force [ Vector | Scalar ]

“I walked for 10 m” Distance [ Vector | Scalar ]

“I walked 10 m east” Displacement [ Vector | Scalar ]

“I drove at 80 mph” Speed [ Vector | Scalar ]

“I drove 80mph west” Velocity [ Vector | Scalar ]

EXAMPLE: For each of the following situations, draw your displacement vectors and calculate the total displacement:

CONCEPT: DOING MATH WITH VECTORS IN ANY QUADRANT (MORE TRIG)

● You’ll need to do math with vectors in ALL Quadrants, not just Quadrant 1.

EXAMPLE: Calculate a) the components and b) the absolute angle for the given vector �⃗⃗� :

Signs of Magnitudes & Components of Vectors:

● Magnitudes → Always positive, but Components may be + or − - Positive Components = pointing [ UP | DOWN ] or [ RIGHT | LEFT ]

- Negative Components = pointing [ UP | DOWN ] or [ RIGHT | LEFT ]

When given a Non-Reference Angle:

● Remember: We always use the Reference Angle 𝜽𝒙 to calculate components:

Ax = A cos(𝜽𝒙) Ay = A sin(𝜽𝒙)

- All right angles add up to 90°, so we’ll use this simple equation to get 𝜽𝒙:

Calculating the Absolute Angle (Positive Angle from +x axis) from the Arctangent

● Taking arctan of components [𝜃𝑥 = tan−1 (|𝐴𝑦|

|𝐴𝑥|)] always gives reference angle 𝜽𝒙.

- Remember to always plug in positive value of components!

- To find the Absolute Angle, work your way back to +x-axis (0°)

PROJECTILE MOTION: NEGATIVE LAUNCH (Negative Angle)

● In negative launch problems, the object starts off with vertical velocity pointing down.

- These usually have just 1 interval. Note all variables are downward (VY, Δy, aY = g).

EXAMPLE: An object slides off an inclined roof (the angle shown is 37o) with 5 m/s, at 3 m above the ground. Find its:

(a) horizontal distance while in the air.

(b) final velocity (magnitude and direction).

PRACTICE: You throw an object from the top of a building with 50 m/s directed at 53o below the horizontal. It covers a

horizontal distance of 80 m while in the air. Find its:

(a) total time of flight.

(b) final velocity (magnitude and direction).

PROJECTILE MOTION

(1) Determine Axis (X | Y)

(2) Pick an Interval

(3) Pick an Equation

PROJECTILE MOTION: LAUNCH UP *FROM* A HEIGHT

● In these problems, the first part of the motion is Symmetric, but the object drops further.

- When picking intervals, try to include point B to simplify equations (_______).

EXAMPLE 1: You throw an object from the top of a 100 m-tall building with 50 m/s directed at 37o above the x-axis. Find:

(a) the maximum height.

(b) the time to reach the maximum height.

(c) the total range (horizontal displacement).

(d) the magnitude & direction of vB, vC, vD.

● If answering multiple questions, it’s often best to break up the motion (___-___, ___-___).

- But sometimes it’s better / easier / faster to solve in a single step / interval (___-___).

EXAMPLE 2: You throw a rock from a 60-m cliff with 50 m/s at 53o above the +x. Using a SINGLE interval, find:

(a) the vertical component of the velocity at D.

(b) the total time of flight.

PROJECTILE MOTION: LAUNCH *TO* A HEIGHT

● In these, we will usually use a combination of the X equation, with the Y equation #3: ΔY = Vot + ½ a t2.

EXAMPLE 1: A fireman, 60 m away from a building, shoots water from a hose at 30 m/s, angled at 53o above the +x. Find:

(a) the time to hit the building.

(b) the height at which it hits the building.

● In some cases, you won’t know if the object hits its target on its way up OR on its way down.

EXAMPLE 2: You want water from hose at 25 m/s and 37o above the +x to reach a building at 10 m above the ground. How

far from the building should the hose be positioned? There are two possible distances, so:

(a) Find the two times it takes for the water to reach the given height.

(b) Find the two distances from the building that would achieve this.

SYMMETRIC LAUNCH: FIND INITIAL VELOCITY (VA, ΘA, or both) ● Symmetric Launch problems where either VA or ΘA is missing require 2-3 equations. - Remember the vector equations. If you have VAx & VAy, you can find VA & ΘA.

● Y equations in the BC interval (voy = 0) give simple combos of the 3 Y vars: Vy, t, H à - If you have any Y variable, you can use these equations to find the other two.

EXAMPLE: An object is launched at an angle from the ground. It reaches a maximum height of 45 m, and returns to the ground after covering a horizontal distance of 240 m. Find its initial velocity (magnitude and direction).

PRACTICE: SYMMETRIC LAUNCH: FIND INITIAL VELOCITY

PRACTICE 1: The range of an object launched from the ground at an angle is 300 m. If the vertical component of its

velocity just before returning to the ground has magnitude 50 m/s, find the magnitude and direction of its initial velocity.

PRACTICE 2: An object is launched from the ground with an initial 40 m/s at an unknown angle. It reaches its maximum

height in 3.5 seconds, before returning to the ground. Find its initial launch angle.

PRACTICE 3: An object is launched from the ground with an unknown initial speed directed at 30o above the horizontal. If it

reaches a maximum height of 40 m before returning to the ground, find its initial speed.
