*Motion in One DImension
![Page 3: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
One Dimensional Motion
To simplify the concept of motion, we will first consider motion that takes place in one direction.
One example is the motion of a commuter train on a straight track.
To measure motion, you must first choose a frame of reference. A frame of reference is a system for specifying the precise location of objects in space and time.
In the train example, any station along the route.

Displacement
Displacement is a change in position. Displacement is not always equal to the
distance traveled. The SI unit of displacement is the meter, m.
∆ x = xf -xi
Displacement – final position – initial position
![Page 5: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Displacement is not always equal to the distance traveled.
Example: If a gecko starts at an initial position of 20 cm and moves to the 80 cm mark, then retreats back to the 50 cm mark as its final position, How far has the gecko traveled? What is its displacement?
The gecko traveled 90 cm, but its displacement is 30 cm.

Postive & Negative displacement
In general, right (east) is positive as well as upward (north) and left (west) is negative as well as downward (south).
![Page 7: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Average velocity
Average velocity is the total displacement divided by the time interval during which the displacement occurred.
In SI, the unit of velocity is meters per second abbreviated as m/s.
![Page 8: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Example:
Consider a trip to a friend’s house 370 km to the west (negative direction) along a straight highway. If you left at 10 AM and arrived at 3 PM, what is your average velocity?
This is your average. You did not travel at 74 km/h at every moment.
![Page 9: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Velocity & speed
Velocity is not the same as speed. Velocity describes motion with both
direction and a numerical value (magnitude).
Speed has no direction, only magnitude. Average speed is equal to the total
distance traveled divided by the time interval.
![Page 10: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Interpreting velocity graphically
Consider an object whose position-time graph is not a straight line, but a curve.
We obtain different average velocities depending on the time interval. The instantaneous velocity is the velocity of the object at a specific point in the object’s path
The instaneous velocity can be determined by measuring the slope of the line that is tangent to that point on the diatance-vs-time graph.
![Page 11: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
acceleration
![Page 12: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Changes in velocity Acceleration – Rate at which velocity
changes over time
An object accelerates if its speed, direction or both change.
Acceleration has direction and magnitude.
Acceleration is a vector quantity.
![Page 13: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Acceleration has the dimensions of length divided by time squared.
SI units are m/s2
Remember we have (m/s)/s = m/s2
Acceleration

Example:
A bus slows down with an average acceleration of -1.8 m/s2. How long does it take the bus to slow down from 9.0 m/s to a complete stop?
![Page 15: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Changes in Velocity Consider a train moving to the right, so that
the displacement and velocity are positive. The slope of the velocity-time graph is the
average acceleration.• When the velocity in the
positive direction is increasing, the acceleration is positive, as at A.
• When the velocity is constant, there is no acceleration, as at B.
• When the velocity in the positive direction is decreasing, the acceleration is negative, as at C.
![Page 16: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Motion with constant acceleration
When velocity changes by the same amount during each time interval, acceleration is constant.
The relationships between displacement, time, velocity, and constant acceleration are expressed by the equations shown on the next slide.
![Page 18: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
These equations apply to any object moving with constant acceleration. These equations use the following symbols:
![Page 19: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Physical Quantities are of 2 types…
*A scalar is only a magnitude (length) (Example: Temperature, time, mass)
*A vector has magnitude and direction (Example: displacement = 10 m East, Velocity= 50 mph west)
![Page 23: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
A
*A vector will be symbolized by the “letter” with an arrow over it. The arrow indicates direction.
*Vectors are equal if they have the same units, magnitude, and direction.
*A vector can be moved anywhere parallel to itself.
![Page 24: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Adding Vectors (attach)
*To add vectors they must have the same units.
*Tip-to -tail method put them head to tail and connect them so you end up with a triangle.
*Parallelogram Method- (put them tail to tail) make vectors parallel and draw a line making 2 triangles

Subtracting Vectors
*Tip to tail- subtract by putting vector in the opposite direction
*If you change the sign of a vector it is not the same vector. It is a new vector.

A projectile is a motion in two dimensions
*Moving in the x and y direction
*A projectile is an object shot through the air. This occurs in a parabola curve.
![Page 46: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

We assume that
*g remains constant (g= -9.8m/s2)
*a in the x direction is 0 because gravity is not acting on it.
*Neglect air resistance
*Neglect the effects of the earths rotation

To find how far the ball falls, you use the formula. y =viyt + 1/2gt2
1st second- 5m
After 2 seconds- 20m
After 3 seconds- 45m
The curved path of a projectile produced is a parabola (caused by both horizontal motion and vertical motion. It must accelerate only in the vertical direction)
![Page 51: Physics Subject Area Test](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062422/568132ba550346895d997725/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
* A projectile Motion is 2 dimensions
*The projectile will experience two:
*Accelerations (ax= o and aY= -9.8m/s2)
*Velocities
*Displacements

Upwardly Launched Projectiles
When a projectile is launched at an upward angle, it follows a curved path and finallyhits the ground because of gravity.
The Vertical distance a cannonball falls below “imaginary path if no gravity” is the same vertical distance it would fall if it were dropped from rest & had been falling for the same amount of time.

Formulas for horizontal and vertical motion of a projectile
Objects that have been thrown will have a horizontal velocity that stays the same (no horizontal acceleration ax = 0m/s2)
So vfx =vix in the second formula and third formulas under horizontal motion.
(X) Horizontal (Y) Vertical
xf-xi = vixt + ½ axt 2 yf-yi = viyt + ½ ayt 2
vfx = vix + axt vfy = viy + ayt
vfx2 - vix

What is the horizontal distance covered by an arrow that was shot through the air at a 600 angle with a velocity of 55 m/s?
Given
v = 55m/s
vix=27.5 m/s
viy=47.6m/s
ax=0
ay=-9.8m/s2
t=?
dx=?
SolveVxi = cos 60(55m/s)=27.5 m/s
Viy = sin60(55m/s)=47.6m/s
vfy=viy +ayt
dx = Vix t (we need time)

Relative Motion
*Frames of ReferenceObservers using different frames of reference may measure different displacements or velocities for an object in motion
Relative Velocities
the difference between the velocities relative to some common point

*Relative Motion: Suppose you are on a train platform as the train rushes through the station without stopping. Someone on board the train is pitching a ball, throwing it has hard as they can towards the back of the train. If the train’s speed is 60 mph and the pitcher is capable of throwing at 60 mph, what is the speed of the ball as you see it from the platform?

Relative Motion
* A boat heading due north crosses a river with a speed of 10.0 km/h. The water in the river has a speed of 5.0 km/h due east.
Moving frame of reference
In general we have PA PB BAv v v
(a) Determine the velocity of the boat.
(b) If the river is 3.0 km wide how long does it take to cross it?
