Looking Back What is a motion diagram What is particle model What are basic elements of a coordinate system Distance and displacement 1 Looking Back A motion diagram is a composition image showing an object s position at several equally spaced instants of time In Particle model the object is treated as if all its mass were concentrated at a single point called a particle Position where the location of the object A coordinate system contains an origin point axes with scale direction and unit x m 100 50 0 50 100 150 One dimensional coordinate system using an x axis origin scale units 2 Distance Displacement Speed and Velocity Distance is actual length of an object traveled regardless of its direction A scalar Displacement is a change of position including the direction of motion A vector x xf xi 3 Answer to Checking Understanding 1 Alice is sliding along a smooth icy road on her sled when she suddenly runs headfirst into a large very soft snowbank that gradually brings her to a halt Draw a motion diagram for Alice Show and label all displacement vectors 2 Maria is at position x 23 m She then undergoes a displacement x 50 m What is her final position A 27 m B 50 m C 23 m D 73

5 Distance Displacement Speed and Velocity Distance is actual length of an object traveled regardless of its direction Scalar Displacement is a change of position including the direction of motion Vector distance traveled in a given time interval speed time interval displaceme nt x velocity time interval t 1 1 1 2 A change in any quantity is the final value of the quantity minus its initial value 6 Speed a scalar Motion diagrams for a car and a bicycle m The car moves 40 m in 1 s The bike moves 20 m in 1 s 40 m Its speed is 1s 20 m Its speed is 1s 40 m s m 20 s 7 Velocity a vector Motion

direction as its displacement vector 8 Questions 1 How much distance did you travel to school today and in how much time What was your average speed 2 You go from home to school and then back home in the evening What total distance did you travel What is your net displacement What is the velocity of a round trip 9 Scalars and vectors Scalar quantities can be expressed by a single number with a unit Time distance speed temperature are scalars A scalar can be positive negative or zero Vector quantities need both a magnitude and direction Displacement velocity acceleration force are vectors The magnitude of a vector can be positive and zero not negative Notation A magnitude length Direction 10 Vectors A A Are these vectors equal or different B B C These vectors are equal A B C C These vectors are different 11 Vectors A displacement vector drawn from the initial to the final position pointing the final position A B The displacement vector of a car initial point A final point B Regardless of the actual path 12 Vectors A velocity vector pointing the direction of the motion A B 13 Vectors In motion diagrams Displacement Vectors Velocity Vectors 14 Example Velocity Vectors Jake throws a ball at a 60 angle measured from the horizontal The ball is caught by Jim Draw a motion diagram of the ball with velocity vectors 15 Vector Addition Example of sum of two vectors Sam undergoes two displacements 16 Vectors Sum of two vectors Adding Vectors Graphically 17 Example Adding Displacement Vectors Jenny runs 1 mi to the northeast then 1 mi south Graphically find her net displacement 18 Vectors A vector can be decomposed into its components A two dimensional coordinate system A Ax Ay y A o Ax Ay x How to compute lengths magnitude and angles direction of triangles Need
