Chapter 1 Motion and Momentum
SEC. 1 What is Motion?
2
The Students Will: Define Speed, velocity and displacement
Graph Motion
3
Terms to Know Speed Average Speed Instantaneous Speed Velocity
Distance Displacement
4
What is Motion? Movement--------- changes in position
Requires a point of reference (starting point)
5
What is Distance? The length of the route one travels
Ex. Distance from your house school Expressed in Meters (m)/ Kilometers (km)
6
What is Displacement? Includes the distance between the starting and ending points, and the direction in which you travel. Ex. 40 m east
7
What is Speed? The distance traveled divided by the time taken to travel the distance is called speed. S= distance (meters) time (seconds)
8
A passenger train travels from Boston to New York a distance of 350 km in 4 hours. What is the train’s speed?
9
If the car travels 400 m in 20 seconds how fast is it going?
10
Bart ran 5000 meters from the cops and a speed of 6 meters/second before he got caught. How long did he run?
11
If it takes Ashley 3 seconds to run from the batters box to first base at a speed of 6.5 meters per second, what is the distance she covers in that time?
12
2 Kinds of Speed Average Speed
- The total distance traveled divided by the total time taken. Instantaneous Speed -the speed of an object at one instant of time.
13
Distance Time Graph -Represents the motion of an object
14
What is Velocity? The speed of an object and the direction of its motion is called velocity.
15
Sec. 2 ACCELERATION -
16
What is Acceleration? The change in velocity divided by the time it takes for the change to happen. -happens when an object speeds up or slows down.
17
3 Ways to Accelerate: SPEEDING UP SLOWING DOWN CHANGING DIRECTION
18
Formula: Acceleration= final speed (m/s) – initial speed (m/s) time (s) a = sfi – si t
19
ACCELERATION NEGATIVE POSITIVE -OBJECT SLOWS DOWN -OBJECT SPEEDS UP
ZERO -SPEED DOES NOT CHANGE
20
SPEED TIME GRAPH
21
Acceleration Problems
1. A roller coaster car rapidly picks up a speed as it rolls down a slope. As it starts down the slope, its speed is 4 m/s . But 3 seconds later, at the bottom of the slope, its speed is 22 m/s. What is its acceleration?
22
2. A cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 8 m/s in 3 seconds
2. A cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 8 m/s in 3 seconds. What is his acceleration? Is this acceleration higher than that of a car which accelerates from 0 to 30 m/s in 8 seconds?
23
SEC 3 MOMENTUM
24
The Students will: Explain the relationship between mass and inertia.
Define Momentum Solve problems using the Momentum Formula
25
Terms to Know: Mass Inertia Momentum
26
What is Mass? The amount of matter in an object is called Mass.
Units-kilograms (kg)/grams (g), pounds (lbs)
27
The tendency of an object to resist change (position, movement) is called inertia.
--objects with mass – inertia
28
What is Momentum? The measure of how hard it is to stop the motion of an object is called Momentum Momentum (p) = mass (kg) x velocity (m/s) p = mv
29
Law of Conservation of Mass:
The total momentum of the objects that collide is the same before and after the collision.
