II. Describing Motion Motion Speed & Velocity Acceleration
3
Newton’s First Law of Motion ◦ An object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will continue moving at a constant velocity unless acted upon by a net force. motion constant velocity net force
4
Problem: ◦ Is your desk moving? We need a reference point... ◦ nonmoving point from which motion is measured
6
Motion ◦ Change in position in relation to a reference point. Reference point Motion
8
Problem: You are a passenger in a car stopped at a stop sign. Out of the corner of your eye, you notice a tree on the side of the road begin to move forward. You have mistakenly set yourself as the reference point.
9
You can describe the direction of an object in motion with a reference direction. north, south, east, west, up, or down
10
Distance Displacement
11
Distance – the length traveled by an object Practice – What is the distance? ◦ Pattie walks 4 km North, then 3 km East ◦ Joe runs 30 m East, then runs 40 meters West ◦ Aaron jogs 4 km East, 4 km North, 4 km West, and 4km South ◦ Answers: 7 km ; 70 meters ; 16 km
12
Distance – length Displacement – distance AND direction of a movement from the starting point
13
If an object moves in a single direction, the displacement equals the distance + the direction start here 4 kmtotal displacement = 4km North
14
If an object moves in two opposing directions, the displacement is the difference between the two. start here 3 km 4 km total displacement = 4 km North + -3 km South = 1 km North (of original starting point) total distance = 4 + 3 = 7 km Displacement can be positive or negative. A negative direction can be either the opposite of the original movement, or can follow the sign of a typical graph [North/East vs South/West]
15
If an object moves in two directions, a triangle will be formed. If the angle is 90 º, use a 2 + b 2 = c 2 to solve. start here 4 km 3 km displacem ent
16
If an object moves in two directions, a triangle will be formed. If the angle is 90 º, use a 2 + b 2 = c 2 to solve. start here 4 km 3 km 5 km displacement = 4 2 + 3 2 = c 2 c 2 = (16) + (9) = 25 c 2 = √(25) c = 5km
17
Displacement can be given in: ◦ units with direction example: x number of meters North 30 meters East + 40 meters West displacement = 10 meters West
18
Displacement can be given in: ◦ positive or negative units [like on a graph] positive = North {up} or East {right} negative = South {down} or West {left} 30 meters east + 40 meters west = 30 meters + (-40) meters = -10 meters
19
Practice – What is the displacement? ◦ Pattie walks 8km North, then 3 km East 5 km displacement ◦ Joe runs 30 m East, then runs 40 meters West 10 meters [or -10] displacement ◦ Aaron jogs 4 km East, 4 km North, 4 km West, and 4km South 0 meters displacement go to website!!!!
20
Draw each scenario and show work. 2. Amy runs 2 miles south, then turns around and runs 3 miles north. a. Distance ___ b. Displacement ___ 3. Jermaine runs exactly 2 laps around a 400 meter track. 4. Joe turns around 5 times.
21
5. Ray runs 30 feet north, 30 feet west, and then 30 feet south.
22
Speed ◦ rate of motion ◦ distance traveled per unit time v d t
23
Instantaneous Speed ◦ speed at a given instant Average Speed
24
Problem: ◦ A storm is 10 km away and is moving at a speed of 60 km/h. Should you be worried? It depends on the storm’s direction!
25
Velocity ◦ speed in a given direction ◦ can change even when the speed is constant!
26
Find the velocity in m/s of a swimmer who swims 110 m toward the shore in 72 s. v = d t v = 110m = 1.5 m/s 72 s
27
Acceleration ◦ the rate of change of velocity ◦ change in speed or direction a: acceleration v f : final velocity v i : initial velocity t: time a v f - v i t
28
Positive acceleration “speeding up” Negative acceleration “slowing down”
29
Your neighbor skates at a speed of 4 m/s towards home. You can skate 100 m in 20 s. Who skates faster? GIVEN: d = 100 m t = 20 s v = ? WORK : v = d ÷ t v = (100 m) ÷ (20 s) v = 5 m/s You skate faster! v d t
30
A roller coaster starts down a hill at 10 m/s. Three seconds later, its speed is 32 m/s. What is the roller coaster’s acceleration? GIVEN: v i = 10 m/s t = 3 s v f = 32 m/s a = ? WORK : a = ( v f - v i ) ÷ t a = (32m/s - 10m/s) ÷ (3s) a = 22 m/s ÷ 3 s a = 7.3 m/s 2 = 7 m/s a v f - v i t
31
Sound travels 330 m/s. If a lightning bolt strikes the ground 1 km away from you, how long will it take for you to hear it? GIVEN: v = 330 m/s d = 1km = 1000m t = ? WORK : t = d ÷ v t = (1000 m) ÷ (330 m/s) t = 3.03 s = 3 s v d t
32
How long will it take a car traveling 30 m/s to come to a stop if its acceleration is -3 m/s 2 ? GIVEN: t = ? v i = 30 m/s v f = 0 m/s a = -3 m/s 2 WORK : t = ( v f - v i ) ÷ a t = (0m/s-30m/s)÷(-3m/s 2 ) t = -30 m/s ÷ -3m/s 2 t = 10 s a v f - v i t
33
slope = steeper slope = straight line = flat line = Distance-Time Graph A B faster speed constant speed no motion speed
34
Who started out faster? ◦ A (steeper slope) Who had a constant speed? ◦A◦A Describe B from 10-20 min. ◦ B stopped moving Find their average speeds. ◦ A = (2400m) ÷ (30min) A = 80 m/min ◦ B = (1200m) ÷ (30min) B = 40 m/min Distance-Time Graph A B
35
Acceleration is indicated by a curve on a Distance-Time graph. Changing slope = changing velocity
36
slope = straight line = flat line = Speed-Time Graph acceleration +ve = speeds up -ve = slows down constant accel. no accel. (constant velocity)
37
Specify the time period when the object was... slowing down ◦ 5 to 10 seconds speeding up ◦ 0 to 3 seconds moving at a constant speed ◦ 3 to 5 seconds not moving ◦ 0 & 10 seconds Speed-Time Graph

III. Defining Force Force Newton’s First Law Friction
39
Force ◦ a push or pull that one body exerts on another ◦ What forces are being exerted on the football? F kick F grav
40
Balanced Forces ◦ forces acting on an object that are opposite in direction and equal in size ◦ no change in velocity
41
Net Force ◦ unbalanced forces that are not opposite and equal ◦ velocity changes (object accelerates) F friction W F pull F net NN
42
Newton’s First Law of Motion ◦ An object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will continue moving at a constant velocity unless acted upon by a net force.
43
Newton’s First Law of Motion ◦ “Law of Inertia” Inertia ◦ tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion ◦ increases as mass increases
44
TRUE or FALSE? The object shown in the diagram must be at rest since there is no net force acting on it. FALSE! A net force does not cause motion. A net force causes a change in motion, or acceleration. Taken from “The Physics Classroom” © Tom Henderson, 1996-2001.The Physics Classroom
45
You are a passenger in a car and not wearing your seat belt. Without increasing or decreasing its speed, the car makes a sharp left turn, and you find yourself colliding with the right-hand door. Which is the correct analysis of the situation?...
46
1. Before and after the collision, there is a rightward force pushing you into the door. 2. Starting at the time of collision, the door exerts a leftward force on you. 3. both of the above 4. neither of the above 2. Starting at the time of collision, the door exerts a leftward force on you.
47
Friction ◦ force that opposes motion between 2 surfaces ◦ depends on the: types of surfaces force between the surfaces
48
Friction is greater... ◦ between rough surfaces ◦ when there’s a greater force between the surfaces (e.g. more weight) Pros and Cons?

IV. Force & Acceleration Newton’s Second Law Gravity Air Resistance Calculations
50
Newton’s Second Law of Motion ◦ The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. F = ma
51
F:force (N) m:mass (kg) a:accel (m/s 2 ) 1 N = 1 kg ·m/s 2 m F a F m
52
Gravity ◦ force of attraction between any two objects in the universe ◦ increases as... mass increases distance decreases
53
Who experiences more gravity - the astronaut or the politician? less distance more mass Which exerts more gravity - the Earth or the moon?
54
Weight ◦ the force of gravity on an object MASS always the same (kg) WEIGHT depends on gravity (N) W = mg W:weight (N) m:mass (kg) g:acceleration due to gravity (m/s 2 )
55
Would you weigh more on Earth or Jupiter? greater gravity greater weight greater mass Jupiter because...
56
Accel. due to gravity (g) In the absence of air resistance, all falling objects have the same acceleration! On Earth: g = 9.8 m/s 2 elephant feather Animation from “Multimedia Physics Studios.”Multimedia Physics Studios

http://www.animations.physics.uns w.edu.au/jw/Newton.htm#Newton 2 Go to the astronaut’s, David Scott, demonstration
59
Air Resistance ◦ a.k.a. “fluid friction” or “drag” ◦ force that air exerts on a moving object to oppose its motion ◦ depends on: speed surface area shape density of fluid
60
Terminal Velocity ◦ maximum velocity reached by a falling object ◦ reached when… F grav = F air F air F grav no net force no acceleration constant velocity
61
Terminal Velocity increasing speed increasing air resistance until… F air = F grav Animation from “Multimedia Physics Studios.”Multimedia Physics Studios
62
Falling with air resistance F grav = F air Animation from “Multimedia Physics Studios.”Multimedia Physics Studios heavier objects fall faster because they accelerate to higher speeds before reaching terminal velocity larger F grav need larger F air need higher speed
63

65
Mrs. J. weighs 557 N. What is her mass? GIVEN: F(W) = 557 N m = ? a( g ) = 9.8 m/s 2 WORK : m = F ÷ a m = (557 N) ÷ (9.8 m/s 2 ) m = 56.8 kg m = 57 kg m F a
66
Is the following statement true or false? ◦ An astronaut has less mass on the moon since the moon exerts a weaker gravitational force. False! Mass does not depend on gravity, weight does. The astronaut has less weight on the moon.
67
VI. Action and Reaction Newton’s Third Law Momentum Conservation of Momentum
68
Newton’s Third Law of Motion ◦ When one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal but opposite force on the first.
69
Problem: How can a horse pull a cart if the cart is pulling back on the horse with an equal but opposite force? NO!!! Aren’t these “balanced forces” resulting in no acceleration?
70
◦ forces are equal and opposite but act on different objects ◦ they are not “balanced forces” ◦ the movement of the horse depends on the forces acting on the horse Explanation:
71
Action-Reaction Pairs The hammer exerts a force on the nail to the right. The nail exerts an equal but opposite force on the hammer to the left.
72
Action-Reaction Pairs The rocket exerts a downward force on the exhaust gases. The gases exert an equal but opposite upward force on the rocket. FGFG FRFR
73
Action-Reaction Pairs Both objects accelerate. The amount of acceleration depends on the mass of the object. F m Small mass more acceleration Large mass less acceleration
74
