The length of the string is…

The actual length of the string suspended in the lab was 8.809 meters.

You will now calculate your percent error as it relates to this lab.

To calculate percent error: http://www.wikihow.com/Calculate-Percentage-Error

Make sure your prediction is in meters. If it is not, use one or more of the following conversions:

1 inch = 2.54 centimeters; 1 meter = 3.28 feet

Displacement

Motion Maps

Worksheet

Quiz Friday

What is Displacement?

How is it different than Position and Distance?

What Information does Displacement give?

Displacement

The change in position is the displacement. It can be both positive and negative like position.

Calculate how far car has travelled when it travels at a constant velocity of 5 m/s for 20 seconds

Displacement

10 meters

Now this can be calculated many different ways using velocity and time. All of you have calculated it algebraically.

How can you graphically come up with the answer?

Displacement

Graphically

20 seconds

5 m/s

The area under the curve on a velocity vs. time graph gives you the displacement

Check the units

Extra examples (board)

Area

Think of them as tiny snap shots of time Each dot represents an even increment of

time The arrow represent a velocity

Motion Maps

Consider the interpretation of the motion map below. At time t = 0, cyclist A starts moving to the right at constant velocity, at some position to the right of the origin. Cyclist B starts at the origin and travels to the right at a constant, though greater velocity. At what time does cyclist B overtake A?

Draw a motion map of a person walking at 5m/s for 10 seconds

Draw a motion map of a man walking -5 m/s for 10 seconds

Draw a motion map of a man walking 5 m/s for 5 seconds, remaining idle for 1 second, and then travelling -5 m/s for 5 seconds
