PHYSICS 11 TODAY: Vectors and Displacement
4
One dimensional motion is the simplest form of motion Example : A train can go only in one dimension forward – backward along the tracks
5
Think about the train….. What about the motion around the train???
6
Think about the train….. What about the motion around the train???
7
Think about the train….. What about the motion around the train???
8
We choose a reference point at a specific time and place against which we will measure changes in position of the train
10
A system for specifying the precise location of an object in space and time STATION 1
11
As an object moves from one position to another, the length of the straight line drawn from its initial to the final position is called:
12
-Each arrows shows the magnitude (size) and direction of a series of a dog’s trips -The arrows are called VECTORS
13
-To give the direction of a vector we use two conventions:
20
What is the geckos' displacement?
21
What if I changed zero on the meter stick to the gecko’s initial position? What would be its displacement then?
22
Displacement vs Distance WORLD MAP Homework!!
23
-To determine the angle of the resulting displacement,
24
we use TRIGONOMETRY
25
GRAPHICALLY Pythagorean Theorem and tangent function
28
hypotenuse leg 1 leg 2 (hypotenuse) 2 = (leg 1) 2 + (leg 2) 2
30
hypotenuse adjacent opposite
31
hypotenuse adjacent opposite
39
