    1. Motion can be described as either constant velocity, where velocity does not change, or changing velocity, known as acceleration. 2. Velocity is the rate of change of an object's position or displacement over time. It can be calculated as the change in displacement divided by the change in time. 3. Acceleration is the rate of change of an object's velocity over time. It can be calculated as the change in velocity divided by the change in time. The slope of a velocity-time graph represents an object's acceleration.

    Motion

    Everything is in motion and there are


    only two possibilities.
    2. Constant Velocity
    v = zero or v = a value
    2. Changing Velocity which is called
    acceleration
    Velocity
    • velocity is the rate at
    which position
    changes or
    displacement changes
    • V = ∆d/∆t
    • Velocity is the slope
    of d vs t graph
    Velocity
    Displacement (m) Time (s)

    DEB – Sketch the Graph. What is the Slope?


    Average vs Instantaneous
    • Average speed is the total distance divided by
    the total time.
    – This is over a long time interval.

    • Instantaneous speed is how fast are you going


    now ie. - speedometer, radar gun, slope at a
    point
    - This is over a short time interval, with t
    approaching 0
    Average Velocity
    • You drive your car 200 miles in 5 hours.
    What is your average velocity?
    H-ITT A) 0 B) 20 C) 40 D) 100 mph
    • But did you at any time travel exactly 40 miles
    per hour?
    • H-ITT A) Yes B) No C) impossible to tell
    H-ITT

    Instantaneous Velocity

    • How could we get


    the instantaneous
    velocity of an air
    track glider or lab
    cart using a flag?
    Instantaneous Velocity
    • Time the flag as it
    passes through
    the photogate.
    Measure the
    length of the flag.
    • V = d flag / t flag

    • What happens as
    the flag gets
    Acceleration
    • acceleration is the
    rate at which velocity
    changes
    • a = ∆v/∆t
    • a = (vf – vi)/(t2 – t1)
    • vf = vi + at
    • The acceleration is the
    slope of v vs t graph
    Acceleration

    • H-ITT

    (m/s) C) 40

    t (s)
    Acceleration
    • The slope of a velocity vs time graph is
    acceleration a = ∆v/∆t
    • If there is no slope, the acceleration is zero =
    constant velocity
    • If there is a positive slope, the velocity is
    getting more positive.
    • If there is a negative slope, the velocity is
    getting more negative.
    • The area under v vs t graph is displacement
