1 Dimensional Linear Motion AP Physics

Displacement Displacement or "Change in position" Displacement may be but is not necessarily the same as total distance traveled. In fact, displacement and distance are entirely different concepts. Displacement is relative. It depends on the frame of reference and point of origin. "x" displacement means you are moving horizontally. "y" displacement means you are moving vertically. “z” displacement means you are moving laterally. The word change is expressed using the Greek letter DELTA ( Δ ). To find the change in position or displacement you ALWAYS subtract your FINAL - INITIAL position. It is therefore expressed as either:   Δx = xf - xi , Δy = yf - yi , or Δz = zf – zi Distance - How far you travel regardless of direction.

Example Suppose a person moves in a straight line from the lockers (at a position  x = 1.0 m) toward the physics lab (at a position x = 9.0 m), as shown below. What is their displacement? The answer is positive so the person must have been traveling horizontally to the right.

Example Suppose the person turns around and walks back? Now what is their displacement? The answer is negative so the person must have been traveling horizontally to the left What is the DISPLACEMENT for the entire trip? What is the total DISTANCE for the entire trip?

Average Velocity VELOCITY is defined as: “The RATE at which DISPLACEMENT changes”. Rate = ANY quantity divided by TIME. Average SPEED is simply the “RATE at which DISTANCE changes”.

Example A quarterback throws a pass to a defender on the other team who intercepts the football. Assume the defender had to run 50 m away from the quarterback to catch the ball, then 15 m towards the quarterback before he is tackled. The entire play took 8 seconds. Let's look at the defender's average velocity: “m/s” is the derived unit for both speed and velocity. Let's look at the defender's speed:

Average Acceleration ACCELERATION is the RATE at which VELOCITY changes. A truck accelerates from 10 m/s to 30 m/s in 2.0 seconds. What is the acceleration? Suppose the same truck then slows down to 5 m/s in 4 seconds. What is the acceleration? “m/s/s” or “m/s2” is the derived unit for acceleration.

What do the “signs”( + or -) mean? Quantity Positive Negative Displacement You are traveling north, east, right, up, or in the +x, +y or +z direction. You are traveling south, west, left, down or in the -x, -y or -z direction. Velocity The rate you are traveling north, east, right, up or in the +x +y or +z direction. The rate you are traveling south, west, left, down or in the -x, -y or -z direction. Acceleration Your speed is increasing in a positive direction or your speed is decreasing in a negative direction. Your speed is decreasing in a positive direction or your speed is increasing in a negative direction.

Beware – the signs can confuse! Suppose a ball is thrown straight upwards at 40 m/s. It takes 4 seconds to reach its maximum height, then another 4 seconds back down to the point where it was thrown. Assume it is caught with the same speed it was thrown. Calculate the acceleration upwards and downwards. This negative sign came from using the DELTA This negative sign came from the DIRECTION of the velocity. It is no surprise you get a negative answer both ways as gravity acts DOWNWARDS no matter if the ball goes up or down. It is GRAVITY which changes the ball’s velocity.
