3.1 Acceleration Review Vector New acceleration velocity-time graph average acceleration instantaneous acceleration Acceleration Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education Vocabulary

Acceleration Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education A. Nonuniform Motion Diagrams 1. The rate at which an object’s velocity changes is called the acceleration (a) of the object. 2. Acceleration is measured in m/s Like displacement and velocity, acceleration is a vector. 4. When the velocity of an object changes at a constant rate, it has a constant acceleration. 5. Acceleration can occur when speed is constant, but the direction of the object is changing.

Acceleration Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education A. Nonuniform Motion Diagrams 6. You can determine the length and direction of an acceleration vector by subtracting two consecutive velocity vectors and dividing by the time interval.

Acceleration Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education B. Direction of Acceleration 1. You need to know the direction of both the velocity and acceleration vectors in order to determine whether an object is speeding up or slowing down. a. When the acceleration of an object is in the same direction as its velocity, the object’s speed increases. b. When the acceleration of an object is in the opposite direction, the object’s speed decreases.

Acceleration Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education C. Velocity-Time Graphs Concepts in Motion

Acceleration Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education C. Velocity-Time Graphs 1. In a velocity-time graph velocity is plotted on the vertical axis and time is plotted on the horizontal axis. 2. You can determine the acceleration from a velocity- time graph by calculating the slope.

Acceleration Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education D. Average and Instantaneous Acceleration 1. The average acceleration of an object is the change in velocity during some measurable time interval divided by that time interval. 2. The change in velocity at an instant of time is called instantaneous acceleration.. Average Acceleration

D. Average and Instantaneous Acceleration 3. The instantaneous acceleration of an object can be found by drawing a tangent line on the velocity-time graph at the point of time in which you are interested. The slope of this line is equal to the instantaneous acceleration.

E. Calculating Acceleration 1. The velocity-time graph in Figure 8 describes Steven’s motion as he walks along the midway at the state fair. Sketch the corresponding motion diagram. Include velocity vectors in your diagram.

E. Calculating Acceleration 2. Use the v-t graph of the toy train in Figure 9 to answer these questions. a. When is the train’s speed constant? b. During which time interval is the train’s acceleration positive? c. When is the train’s acceleration most negative?

E. Calculating Acceleration 3. Refer to Figure 9 to find the average acceleration of the train during the following time intervals. a. 0.0 s to 5.0 s b s to 20.0 s c. 0.0 s to 40.0 s

E. Calculating Acceleration 4. Plot a v-t graph representing the following motion: An elevator starts at rest from the ground floor of a three-story shopping mall. It accelerates upward for 2.0 s at a rate of 0.5 m/s 2, continues up at a constant velocity of 1.0 m/s for 12.0 s, and then slows down with a constant downward acceleration of 0.25 m/s 2 for 4.0 s as it reaches the third floor. a. Velocity for 2.0 s at 0.5m/s 2 ? b. Time when moved 1.0 m/s for 12.0 s? c. Time when moved 0.25 m/s 2 for 4.0 s?

E. Calculating Acceleration 4.

E. Calculating Acceleration 5. A race car’s forward velocity increases from 4.0 m/s to 36 m/s over a 4.0-s time interval. What is its average acceleration? 6. The race car in the previous problem slows from 36 m/s to 15 m/s over 3.0 s. What is its average acceleration?

E. Calculating Acceleration 7. A bus is moving west at 25 m/s when the driver steps on the brakes and brings the bus to a stop in 3.0 s. a. What is the average acceleration of the bus while braking? b. If the bus took twice as long to stop, how would the acceleration compare with what you found in part a?

E. Calculating Acceleration 8. A car is coasting backward downhill at a speed of 3.0 m/s when the driver gets the engine started. After 2.5 s, the car is moving uphill at 4.5 m/s. If uphill is chosen as the positive direction, what is the car’s average acceleration?

E. Calculating Acceleration 9. Rohith has been jogging east toward the bus stop at 3.5 m/s when he looks at his watch and sees that he has plenty of time before the bus arrives. Over the next 10.0 s, he slows his pace to a leisurely 0.75 m/s. What was his average acceleration during this 10.0 s?
