1. DO NOW Pick up your clickers and notebooks!! You MIGHT want to look over yesterday’s notes You MIGHT also want to copy the Table of Contents down on page 3 (Notbook Check?)

2. 16 Motion Diagrams Friday 9/23Page 17 17 Motion DOT Diagram KISS, brief notes! Each slide less than 1 minute! Record less than 5 to 7 words per slide! Write Study questions after class! Write Summary after class! 16

3. Picturing Motion: Dot Diagrams If you related the position of the runner to the background in each frame taken in 1 second intervals, you would conclude that the student is in motion. This series of images, taken at regular intervals, creates a motion diagram for the change in the student’s state of motion.

4. Roll a ball along a horizontal surface, and its velocity is constant because no component of gravitational force acts horizontally Drop it, and it accelerates downward and covers greater vertical distances each second. Motion Diagram Simulation

5. By noting the distance the object moves in equal time intervals, you can determine the object’s state of motion A: at rest B: moving at a constant speed C: speeding up D: slowing down.

6. Use a dot motion diagram model to draw simplified motion diagrams A: at rest B: moving at a constant speed C: speeding up D: slowing down.

7. Use the dot diagram model to draw a motion diagram for an object moving at a constant speed. Use the dot diagram model to draw a motion diagram for an object starting at rest and speeding up. Use the dot diagram model to draw a motion diagram for an object that starts from rest, speeds up to a constant speed, and then slows to a stop.

8. Use the dot diagram model to draw a motion diagram for a wheel turning at a constant speed. First place the dot at the hub of the wheel. What would the diagram look like? What would the diagram look like if the dot were placed on the rim of the wheel?

9. Dot Diagrams & Vector Quantities To determine displacement, velocity, and acceleration, a coordinate system must be specified. Normally the positive values of x extend horizontally to the right, and the positive values of y extend vertically upward.

10. The sign of the average velocity depends upon the chosen coordinate system. The coordinate systems in a and b are equally correct

11. Color Conventions –Displacement vectors are green. –Velocity vectors are red. –Accelerations vectors are violet

12. Graphs and motion diagrams are useful in differentiating constant motion and motion that is accelerated. A speed-versus-time graph A distance-versus-time graph
