4. Intro
Motion:
Defined as the process of the movement of an object from one place to another.
The study of the motion of objects and the forces that affect their motion is called Mechanics
Mechanics is divided up into:
Kinematics
Dynamics

5. Kinematics
Is the branch of mechanics concerned with motion and its direction.
Kinematics answers these questions:
Is it moving fast or slow? Is it moving at a constant speed? At rest?
What direction is it traveling?

6. Dynamics
Is the branch of mechanics dealing with motion of objects under the action of force.
Dynamics answers these questions:
Why is the object speeding up or slowing down?
How does it turn?

7. Ways we describe Physics
Pictures (diagram)
Words (written statement)
Numbers (table of values)
Graphs (plotted points)
Equations (symbols and math)

8. Diagram

9. Written Statement
1) Eiko skates to school, a total of 4.5 km. She slows down twice to cross streets, but overall the journey takers 0.62h. What is her average speed during the trip?

10. Table of Values Position (meters) Time (seconds) 1m 3s 2m 6s 3m 9s 4m

11. Graph

12. Equation v = Δd/Δt ->Δd=d2-d1 Δt=t2-t1 a = ->Δv/Δt
->Δv = v2 – v1

13. Units
Distance is the amount of ground covered measured usually in meters.
We express it in:
Centimeters (cm)
Meters (m)
Kilometers (km)
Millimeters (mm)

14. Units
Time is the duration of an event to take place usually measured in seconds
We express time as:
Seconds (s)
Minutes (min)
Hours (hr)

15. Unit Conversions
In this unit you will be working with units! You will have to know how to convert them. Try these:
Distance:
1000m = 1km cm = 1m mm = 1m
Examples:
Convert 36m to kms.
Convert 1.2m to cm

16. Unit Conversions Time: Examples: 1 min = 60 s 1 hr = 60 min
1hr = 3600 s
Examples:
Convert 35 minutes to seconds
Convert 4.5 hours to seconds

18. Class 2 On the agenda: Distance, position, displacement
Scalars, vectors

19. Distance
We know distance is the amount of ground covered measured usually in meters.
We can express it in:
Centimeters (cm)
Meters (m)
Kilometers (km)
Millimeters (mm)

20. Distance The symbol for distance is:
When distance has changed by moving around an object, we must calculate its change. To do this we use the formula:
Δd=df-di
Δ stands for “delta” and Δd simply means the change in distance.
Δdtotal=d1+d2+d3…..

21. Distance Ex.
Margret drove 15 kilometers to the store, from the store she drove 5 kilometers to the bank, from the bank she drove 9 kilometers to her sisters house. What is the total distance Margret traveled?

22. Distance
Distance is simply the amount of ground covered. (We don’t care how you got there, we just want to know how far you traveled).
A real world example would be your car odometer.

23. Position
When we talk about traveling, we have to talk about direction and distances. To understand where you are, you need a reference point.
Usually a reference point is your start or point of origin.
Direction is needed to determine your position from the point of origin. The clearest way to communicate this is writing North (N), East (E), South (S) and West (W).

24. Position
Your position is the separation and direction from a reference point.
Ex. Your position is 152m (W) so verbally we say you are a hundred and fifty two meters west of the reference point.
Symbol for position is: ->d
Position is stated as positive or negative relative to a zero point.
Ex. Board line

25. Displacement Displacement is defined as the change in position.
The symbol is:
->Δd
Displacement formula is:
->Δd=d2-d1

26. Displacement
Displacement is expressed as the size of the quantity (including units) and the direction
Ex. 33m [W]
It represents the straight-line distance from an initial position in a given direction

27. Displacement Ex. If you travel 20 km [N] and then 5 km [S]:
What is your total distance traveled?
What is your displacement?

28. Scalars Vs. Vectors Scalars: Vectors:
Quantities that only have a size.
Ex. Time (t), distance (m), speed (m/s)
Vectors:
Quantities that have both a size and direction.
The direction is found in a square bracket after the units. (compass points are used as well as positive and negative)
Ex. Displacement (m), velocity (m/s)
To help distinguish between the two, many scientists place an arrow above vectors.

29. Drawing Vectors
A vector drawing can be expressed as a line segment that represents the size and direction of a vector quantity.
Ex.
Displacement = 15km [W]
Displacement = 25km [S]

30. Drawing Vectors
Ex. Anne takes her dog for a walk. They walk 250 m (W) and then back 215 m (E) before stopping to talk to a neighbor. Draw a vector diagram to find their resultant displacement at this point.

31. Worksheet 2

32. Class 3 Go over worksheets Any questions?
Explain graphs activity (slope)
Moving Man activity

33. Hand Out
We will read over it together.
Try out the back after.

34. Graphs
Graphs show quantitative (numerical) information visually. Its more quick and easy to understand than a table of values.
Lets you see patterns. Correct for errors. See the slope.
What is slope?

35. What about slope? Slope = rise/run
In math, the formula for slope is y=mx+b
In physics, the formula for slope is d = v t
Lets make a quick small graph to help us see it.

37. Slope y = mx + b d = v t y = dependent variable m = slope of line
x = independent variable
b = y-intercept of the line
d = v t
d = dependent variable
v = slope of line
t = independent variable

38. Slope
Slope = rise = (y2 – y1) = distance = m
run (x2 – x1) time s

40. Moving Man
Grab the worksheet and try the simulation!

41. Class 4
On the agenda:
Speed, instantaneous speed, constant speed, average speed, velocity

42. Speed Speed is how fast something is moving.
To calculate speed, measure the distance covered over a specific time.
Formula for speed v = d/t
v = speed, d = distance, t = time
Verbally we say that the speed (v) is the distance (d) divided by the time (t)

43. Speed Don’t forget, speed units are? m/s Km/h
Speed is also a scalar quantity

44. Speed Formula

45. Speed Example
Ex. A car travels 220 km in 2.0 hours, what was the car’s speed?

46. Average Speed
Average speed is equal to the total distance divided by the total time for a trip.
Equation: vav= Δd/Δt
Δd is read as the change in distance (Δd=d2-d1) where d1 is the first distance measured and d2 is the final distance measured
Δt is read as the change in time (Δt=t2-t1) where t1 is the initial time and t2 is the final time. t1 is often zero.

47. Instantaneous speed
Instantaneous speed: is the speed at which an object is traveling at a particular instant. It is not affected by its previous speed, or by how long it has been moving.
Eg. Speedometer.

48. Constant Speed
If the instant speed of something remains the same over a period of time, then we say that the object is traveling with constant speed.
The average speed of an object is the same as its instantaneous speed if that object is traveling at a constant rate.

49. Velocity
Velocity describes how fast something moves in a specific direction.
To calculate velocity, measure the change in position over a specific time.
Formula for speed v = ->Δd/t
->v = velocity, ->Δd = displacement, t = time
Verbally we say that the velocity (->v) is the displacement (->d) divided by the time (t)

50. Velocity Don’t forget, velocity units are? m/s Km/h
Velocity is also a vector quantity

51. Velocity Examples
A train travels at a constant velocity through the countryside and has a displacement of 150 km [E] in a time of 1.7h. What is the velocity of the train?
A high school athlete runs 1.00x102 m in 12.20s. What is the velocity in m/s? and km/h?

52. Speed Velocity W.S.

53. Class 5
Agenda:
Ticker tap lab

54. A common way of analysing the motion of objects in physics labs is to perform a ticker tape analysis.
Kinematics

55. One tick is equal to 1/60 s or 0.01 s.
A ticker tape timer consists of an electrical vibrator which vibrates 60 times per second. 
The time interval between two adjacent dots on the ticker-tape is called one tick. 
One tick is equal to 1/60 s or 0.01 s.
Kinematics

56. example
Find the number of ticks and the time interval between the first dot and the last dot on each of the ticker tapes below. The frequency of the ticker timer is equal to 60Hz.
Kinematics

57. The trail of dots provides a history of the object's motion and is therefore a representation of the object's motion.
The distance between dots on a ticker tape represents the object's position change during that time interval.
A large distance between dots indicates that the object was moving fast during that time interval.
A small distance between dots means the object was moving slow during that time interval.
Kinematics

58. Pattern
Explanations
The distance between the dots is the same. It shows that the object is moving with constant speed.
The distance between the dots is short. It shows that the speed of the object is low.
The distance between the dots is far. It shows that the object is moving at a high speed
Kinematics

59. The analysis of a ticker tape diagram will also reveal if the object is moving with a constant velocity or with a changing velocity (accelerating).
Kinematics

60. Pattern
Explanations
The distance between the dots is increased. It shows that the speed of the object increases.
The distance between the dots is decreased. It shows that the speed of the object decreases.
Kinematics

61. Ticker Lab Watch me do a ticker tape run and explain what to do!
Then it will be your turn.

62. Ticker Lab I will put you into groups of 2/3 for this lab now.
Everyone is expected to hand in their own individual work.
We have 3 ticker timers and cars to play with so we have to cycle on and off because there aren’t enough for every group.
In the mean time, other groups should be making up their lab report.

63. Ticker Lab
All you need is your data from your ticker tape which shouldn’t take much time.
Your job is to create a lab from scratch. I will give you an outline shell on the board, and you must fill it all in on your own papers and hand it in.

66. Class 6
Speed/Velocity on board.
Acceleration

67. Acceleration What is acceleration?
It is the increase in the velocity of an object over time
To calculate acceleration:
Take the ration of the change in velocity to the change in time
Formula:
a= ->Δv/Δt
a: acceleration
->Δv: change in velocity
Δt: change in time

68. Acceleration Formula: Units: Acceleration is a vector. a=->Δv/Δt
Expand that to be:
a=v2-v1/Δt
v2: final velocity
v1: initial velocity
Units:
m/s2 and direction (N,S,E,W,+,-)
Acceleration is a vector.

69. Acceleration
Ex. If you speed up on your motorcycle from rest (0m/s) to 9.0m/s in a time of 2.0s, what is your acceleration?

70. Acceleration
This means you will increase your velocity by 4.5m/s every second (0,4.5,9,13.5,18…after 5 seconds)
Make a chart!

71. Acceleration
What does acceleration look like on a graph?

72. Acceleration
Ex2. If a car accelerates from 0.0 km/h to 100 km/h in 6.0 s, what is the acceleration of the car?

73. Acceleration
Lets rearrange the formula:
a=->Δv/Δt

74. Acceleration
Ex 3. A bus with an initial speed of 12 m/s accelerates at 0.62 m/s2 for 15 seconds. What is the final speed of the bus?
