ESS 303 1st EditionFinal Exam Study GuideLinear Kinematics Linear: in a straight line (from point A to point B) Angular: rotational (from angle A to angle B) Kinematics VS Kinetics Kinematics: description of motion without regard for underlying forces Acceleration Velocity Position Kinetics: determination of the underlying causes of motion (i.e., forces) Linear Kinematics The branch of biomechanics that deals with the description of the linear spatial and temporal components of motion Describes transitional motion (from point A to point B) Uses reference systems 2D: X & Y axis 3D: X, Y & Z axis Position: location in space relative to a reference Scalars and vectors Scalar quantities: described fully by magnitude (mass, distance, volume, etc) Vectors: magnitude and direction (the position of an arrow indicates direction and the length indicates magnitude) Distance: the linear measurement of space between points Displacement: area over which motion occurred, straight line between a starting and ending point Speed: distance per unit time (distance/time) Velocity: displacement per unit time or change in position divided by change in time (displacement/time) Graph Basics SI Units Systeme International d’Units Standard units used in science Typically metric Mass: Kilograms Distance: Meters Time: Seconds Temperature: Celsius or kalvin More Terms Acceleration: change in velocity divided by change in time (Δ V / Δ t) (m/s)/s Acceleration of gravity: 9.81m/s2 Differentiation: the mathematical process of calculating complex results from simple data (e.g., using velocity and time to calculate acceleration) Derivative: the solution from differentiation Integration: the opposite of differentiation (e.g., calculation of distance from velocity and time) Speed = d / t Velocity = Δ position / Δ t Acceleration = Δ V / Δ t Slope = rise / run Resultant = √(X2 + Y2) Remember: A2 + B2 = C2 SOH CAH TOA Sin θ = Y component / hypotenuse Cos θ = X component / hypotenuse Tan θ = Y component / X component Sample Problems A swimmer completes 4 lengths of a 50m pool What distance was traveled? What was the swimmer’s displacement? Move from point (3,5) to point (6,8) on a graph What was the horizontal displacement? What was the vertical displacement? What was the resultant displacement? Sample Problems A runner accelerates from 0m/s to 4.7m/s in 3.2 seconds What was the runner’s rate of acceleration? Someone kicks a football so that it travels at a velocity of 29.7m/s at an angle of 22° above the ground What was the vertical component of velocity? What was the horizontal component of velocity?Angular Kinematics The branch of biomechanics that deals with the description of the angular components of motion Uses degrees or radians to describe position and/or movement Degree: 360° in a circle Radian: the length of 1 radius along the arc of a circle 1 radian = 57.3 degrees Angular Kinematics In the drawing to the right – A, B & C have the same angular displacement or rotation A, B & C have different linear displacements Angular Kinematics θ = S/R θ = angle in radians S = displacement along the arc R = radius If radius A = 1m, radius B = 2m, radius C = 3m and each had a rotation of 90°, what were the displacements of each? Angular Kinematics 90° = 1.57 radians SA = 1.57rad * 1m SA = 1.57m SB = 1.57rad * 2m SB = 3.14m SC = 1.57rad * 3m SC = 4.71m Angle Types Relative: angle between segments Absolute: describes the orientation of an object in space Right Hand Rule Today’s Formulas 1 radian = 57.3 degrees θ = S/R (remember to use radians here) Tan θ = (Yproximal – Ydistal)/(Xproximal – Xdistal) Angular speed = angular distance/time Angular velocity (ω) = ∆θ / ∆t Angular acceleration (α) = ∆ω / ∆t Problems A figure skater turns 6 ½ times What was the angular distance traveled? What was the angular displacement? While watching a golf swing, you note that the angular velocity at time1 (0.05s) was 6.5rad/s and at time2 (0.54s) was 15.87rad/s What was the angular acceleration?Projectiles Which Will Hit First? Put Things Together (4 Steps) Step #1: Calculate the X and Y components of movement. VX0 = V0 * Cos θ VY0 = V0 * Sin θ Step #2: Calculate the maximum height. How far up did it go? Yup = (VY2 – VY02)/2a Ydown: How far down will it fall (think about it)? Put Things Together (4 Steps) Step #3: Calculate the hang-time Y = ½at2 t = √(2Y)/a Remember to add time up and time down Step #4: Calculate the range (the horizontal distance) X = VX0 * t Problems You drop a penny from the top of a 2000 meter-high building How long will it take to hit the ground? How fast will it be going when it hits? Problems A player kicked a football giving it a velocity of 20m/s at an angle of 37°. It was caught byanother player at a height of 1.5meters. What were the X and Y components of velocity? How high did it go? How long was it in the air? How far apart were the players? Quiz 2 Notes Next week Bring a calculator (with trig. functions) Formula sheet provided (same as one on the web) Scratch paper is recommended About 16 total points About 5 problems ranging in points from 2 to 7 Show your work and include units Quiz 2 Sample Problems A runner completes 17 laps of a quarter-mile track. What was his or her distance and displacement? Distance = 4.25 Miles Displacement = 0 Miles Move on a grid from point (3,6) to point (8,10). What are your horizontal, vertical, and resultant displacements? Horizontal Displacement = 5 Vertical Displacement = 4 Resultant Displacement = 6.40 More Quiz 2 Sample Problems A ballerina twirls 4½ times. What was her angular distance in degrees and radians? Angular Distance = 1620 Degrees Angular Distance = 28.27 Radians While watching a golf swing, you note that the angular velocity at the .18 second mark was 2.5 radians/second. You also see that the angular velocity at the .41 second mark was 12.02 radians/second. What was the angular acceleration? = (/t) = (12.02-2.5)/.41-.18) = (9.52/0.23) = 41.39
