Speed, Velocity and Acceleration
5
TEKS 8.6A demonstrate and calculate how unbalanced forces change the speed or direction of an object’s motion TEKS 8.6B differentiate between speed, velocity and acceleration
6
Motion is a change in position relative to another object. Uniform motion - constant speed in a straight line Accelerated motion – motion that is changing in speed or direction
7
How fast an object is moving is called speed.
8
Speed is how far something travels (distance) in a given amount of time.
9
The formula for finding speed is Speed= distance time
10
The unit for speed is meters or kilometers (distance) and seconds or hours (time).
11
It looks like this: m/sec or km/hr
13
Sometimes, it is important to know the speed and direction an object is traveling.
14
Velocity is the term used when referring to the speed and a direction.
15
So, you might say the car is traveling at 50 km/hr, north.
16
Vectors can be used to show the direction of an object’s motion.
17
Which of these shows and which 25 m/sec 67 m/sec south 90 km/sec 13 km/sec speed velocity?
18
Acceleration
19
When a force is applied to a moving object, the object can speed up, slow down, come to a stop or change direction.
20
When a force changes the speed, direction or both of an object, we are changing the velocity of the object.
21
A change in velocity is called acceleration.
22
This is the change in velocity over a given period of time.
23
The formula for acceleration is acceleration = velocity time
24
Acceleration is measured meters per second per second or m/sec 2
25
An object falling to earth is subject to a change in acceleration of 9.8 m/s 2 due to gravity.
26
Examples of acceleration are…. stepping on the brakes
27
pedaling your bicycle faster
28
dropping your lunch tray to the floor…
29
a dog chasing its tail
30
a roller coaster climbing to the top of a hill.
