Force & Motion
Motion Speed = rate at which an object moves Speed = rate at which an object moves
Motion speed equation: speed = distance ÷ time (v = d ÷ t) units of speed: meters per second (m/s) or kilometers per hour (km/hr)
Example: A jogger runs the first 1000 m of a race in 250 sec. What is the jogger’s speed? What is the correct way to plug in the numbers? 1. v = 250 sec ÷ 1000 m 2. v = 1000 m ÷ 250 sec 3. v = 1000 m x 250 sec 4. v = 250 sec x 1000 m
Motion Speed = rate at which an object moves Speed = rate at which an object moves speed = distance ÷ time (v = d ÷ t) Example: A jogger runs the first 1000 m of a race in 250 sec. What is the jogger’s speed? v = 1000 m ÷ 250 sec.
Example: A jogger runs the first 1000 m of a race in 250 sec. What is the jogger’s speed? m/sec sec/m 3. 4 m/sec 4. 4 sec/m
Motion Speed = rate at which an object moves Speed = rate at which an object moves speed = distance ÷ time (v = d ÷ t) Example: A jogger runs the first 1000 m of a race in 250 sec. What is the jogger’s speed? v = 1000 m ÷ 250 sec. v = 4 m/sec.
Motion Speed = rate at which an object moves Speed = rate at which an object moves Velocity = speed with a specific direction Velocity = speed with a specific direction
Example: A running back moves towards the east end zone at 10 m/sec. What is the running back’s velocity? m/sec m/sec west m/sec east meters east
Motion Speed = rate at which an object moves Speed = rate at which an object moves Velocity = speed with a specific direction Velocity = speed with a specific direction Example: A running back moves towards the east end zone at 10 m/sec. –What is the running back’s velocity? velocity = 10 m/sec. east
Motion Acceleration = change in velocity Acceleration = change in velocity
Motion –Acceleration can mean: Speeding up Speeding up
Motion Acceleration = change in velocity Acceleration = change in velocity –Acceleration can mean: Speeding up Speeding up Slowing down Slowing down
Motion Acceleration = change in velocity Acceleration = change in velocity –Acceleration can mean: Speeding up Speeding up Slowing down Slowing down Changing direction Changing direction –Think of a rollercoaster because it can do all three!
Which car is not accelerating? 1. A car driving up a hill and down the other side. 2. A car turning a corner. 3. A car turning a corner at a constant speed. 4. A car driving at a constant speed along a straight highway.
Which is NOT an example of acceleration? 1. As you see your friend, you jump up and run to greet them. 2. Your dog runs in circles chasing his tail. 3. You pedal your bike along your street at 5 km/hr. 4. A car slows down as it comes to a red light.
Motion Acceleration = change in velocity Acceleration = change in velocity acceleration equation: acceleration = velocity ÷ time (a = v ÷ t) units of acceleration: m/s per second (m/s 2 ) or km/hr per hour (km/hr 2 )
Example: A car accelerates from 0 to 72 km/hr in 8 sec. What is the car’s acceleration? What is the correct way to plug in the numbers? 1. a = 72 km ÷ 8 sec 2. a = 0 km/hr ÷ 8 sec 3. a = 72 km/hr ÷ 8 sec 4. a = 8 sec ÷ 72 km/hr
Motion Acceleration = change in velocity Acceleration = change in velocity acceleration = velocity ÷ time (a = v ÷ t) Example: A car accelerates from 0 to 72 km/hr in 8 sec. What is the car’s acceleration? a = 72 km/hr ÷ 8 sec.
Example: A car accelerates from 0 to 72 km/hr in 8 sec. What is the car’s acceleration? 1. 9 km/hr 2. 9 km/hr/sec 3. 9 km/hr/hr 4. 9 km
Motion Acceleration = change in velocity Acceleration = change in velocity acceleration = velocity ÷ time (a = v ÷ t) Example: A car accelerates from 0 to 72 km/hr in 8 sec. What is the car’s acceleration? a = 72 km/hr ÷ 8 sec. a = 9 km/hr/s
Force Force = a push or a pull Force = a push or a pull
Force –forces have a strength and direction –Forces are measured in units called Newtons (N) 1 N 20 N Small force pushing to the right Big force pushing to the left
Force Balanced forces = equal forces working on 1 object in opposite directions Balanced forces = equal forces working on 1 object in opposite directions 100 N Total force on rope = 0 N Rope’s motion does not change (it is in equilibrium)
Force Unbalanced forces = unequal forces cause an object to accelerate Unbalanced forces = unequal forces cause an object to accelerate 120 N100 N Total force on rope = 20 N to the right Rope’s moves to the right (it is in disequilibrium)
