Creating projectile motion Throw the ball straight up while moving on rollerblades. As long as you do not change your speed or direction while the ball is in flight, it will land back in your hands. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Qualitative analysis of projectile motion in the y-axis A ball thrown straight up in the air by a person moving horizontally on rollerblades will land back in the person's hand. Earth exerts a gravitational force on the ball, so its upward speed decreases until it stops at the highest point, and then its downward speed increases until it returns to your hands. With respect to you on the rollerblades, the ball simply moves up and down. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Qualitative analysis of projectile motion in the x-axis A ball thrown straight up in the air by a person moving horizontally on rollerblades will land back in the person's hand. The ball also moves horizontally. No object exerts a horizontal force on the ball. Thus, according to Newton's first law, the ball's horizontal velocity does not change once it is released and is the same as the person's horizontal component of velocity. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Qualitative analysis of projectile motion in the x- and y-axes A ball thrown straight up in the air by a person moving horizontally on rollerblades will land back in the person's hand. The ball continues moving horizontally as if it were not thrown upward. The ball moves up and down as if it does not move horizontally. It seems that the horizontal and vertical motions of the ball are independent of each other. We need to test this pattern! © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Testing experiment Given our prediction based on the previously observed pattern, and the outcome of the testing experiment, what can we conclude? © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Conceptual Exercise 3.7: Throwing a ball You throw a tennis ball as a projectile. Arrows represent the ball's instantaneous velocity and acceleration and the force or forces exerted on the ball by other objects when at the three positions shown in the diagram. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Quantitative analysis of projectile motion: Acceleration The equations of motion for velocity and constant acceleration are used to analyze projectile motion quantitatively. The x-component (in the horizontal direction) of a projectile's acceleration is zero. The y-component (in the vertical direction) of a projectile's acceleration is –g. The force is mg—the force of gravity that Earth exerts on the projectile. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Quantitative analysis of projectile motion: Velocity For a projectile launched at speed v0 at an angle θ relative to the horizontal: Its initial x- and y-velocity components are: [insert the equations in the middle of the paragraph, on the 9th text line, on page 106 for v0x and v0y] The x-component of velocity remains constant during the flight because the acceleration along the x-axis is zero. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Quantitative analysis of projectile motion: Using our kinematics equations Equation (3.8y) can be used to determine the time interval for the projectile's flight. Equation (3.8x) can be used to determine how far the projectile travels in the horizontal direction during that time interval. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Example 3.8: Best angle for farthest flight You want to throw a rock the farthest possible horizontal distance. You keep the initial speed of the rock constant and find that the horizontal distance it travels depends on the angle at which it leaves your hand. What is the angle at which you should throw the rock so that it travels the longest horizontal distance, assuming you throw it with the same initial speed? I'm leaving this for the instructor to solve in class © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Example 3.9: Shot from a cannon Stephanie Smith Havens is to be shot from an 8-m-long cannon at 100 km/h. The barrel of the cannon is oriented 45° above the horizontal. She hopes to be launched so that she lands on a net that is 40 m from the end of the cannon barrel and at the same elevation (our assumption). Estimate the speed with which she needs to leave the cannon to make it to the net. This is left for the instructor to solve as an example © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Using Newton's laws to explain how static friction helps a car start and stop Increasing or decreasing a car's speed involves static friction between the tire's region of contact and the pavement. To move faster, turn the tire faster. The tire then pushes back harder on the pavement, and the pavement pulls forward more on the tire (Newton's third law). © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Using Newton's laws to explain how static friction helps a car start and stop (Cont'd) To slow down, turn the tire more slowly. The tire pulls forward on the pavement, which in turn pushes back on the tire to accelerate the car backward. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Tip Some people think a car's engine exerts a force on the car that starts the car's motion and helps it maintain a constant speed despite air resistance. In fact, the forces the engine exerts on other parts of the car are internal forces. Only external forces exerted by objects in the environment can affect the car's acceleration. The engine rotates the wheels, and the wheels push forward or backward on the ground. It is the ground (an external object) that pushes backward or forward on the wheels, causing the car to slow down or speed up. The force responsible for this backward or forward push is the static friction force that the road exerts on the tires. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
