Module 4 - Overview: Outline

This module overview covers projectile motion and circular motion. It includes 3 learning objectives related to projectile motion such as calculating range, time of flight, and maximum heights. It also covers deducing consequences of independent vertical and horizontal motion. The introduction defines projectile motion and discusses its two simultaneous motions. It also defines key terms like projectile, trajectory, and free fall motion. The module then covers 3 cases of projectile motion with sample problems: horizontal, above horizontal, and below horizontal. It also covers circular motion by defining terms like angular position, tangential speed, angular velocity, tangential and angular acceleration, and centripetal acceleration. Sample problems demonstrate calculations for these circular motion concepts.

Module 4 - Overview

Outline:

1.
1. Projectile Motion
2. Circular Motion

 
Learning Objectives:
After completing the module, the students will be able to:

o deduce the consequences of the independence of vertical and
horizontal components of projectile motion,
o calculate range, time of flight, and maximum heights of projectiles
o solve problems involving two-dimensional motion in contexts such
as, but not limited to ledge jumping, movie stunts, basketball, safe
locations during firework displays, and Ferris wheels
o infer quantities associated with circular motion such as tangential
velocity, centripetal acceleration, tangential acceleration, radius of
curvature

Module 4 - Introduction
 is the motion of an object that is launched at an angle into the air, without
motive power of its own.
 It has two motions occurring at the same time and the only thing the two
motions have in common is that they take place at the same time interval.
 the horizontal part of the motion is uniform motion in a straight line since there
is no horizontal resisting force.
 the vertical part of the motion is uniformly accelerated motion since it is
governed by the laws of free-falling bodies

            Projectile

 an object with an initial velocity and whose path is determined


by the effects of gravity and air resistance

            Trajectory

 parabolic path followed by a projectile


Module 4 - Projectile Motion: Case
1
CASE 1: Projectile thrown horizontally

Sample Problem 1: A bomb is dropped from an airplane travelling horizontally with a speed of
300mi/h. If the airplane is 10,000ft above the ground, how far from the target must it be
released? (Neglect air resistance)
Module 4 - Projectile Motion: Case 2
CASE 2: Projectile thrown above the horizontal
Sample Problem 1: A baseball is batted into the air and caught at a point 100 m distant
horizontally in 4s. If air resistance is neglected, what is its maximum height in meters above the
ground?

Sample Problem 2: A canon is fired with a muzzle velocity of 300m/s at an angle of 60°. What is its range?
Module 4 - Projectile Motion: Case
3
CASE 3: Projectile thrown below the horizontal

Sample Problem 1: A object is thrown downward from a 150-ft cliff with a velocity of
45mi/hr so that it makes an angle of 30° with the horizontal.
a. How fast will it be going when it hits the ground?
b. How long will it take to reach the ground?
c. How far will it fall from the base of the cliff?
Module 4 - Circular Motion
CIRCULAR MOTION

 Uniform circular motion is the movement of an object at constant speed along a


circle.

1. POSITION OF A MOVING OBJECT IN A CIRCULAR PATH


o specified by angular position coordinate q
o q is the angle usually measured in counter clockwise direction from the
+x-axis to a radial line drawn from the center of the circle to the object
o the units of q can be in degrees (°), revolutions (rev), or radians (rad).

Review: Convert the following:


Sample Problem 1: A fan rotates through 7prad. After this rotation, what is the position of a
blade which was originally pointing straight up?

2. RATE OF MOTION
The tangential speed of an object moving in a circular path is the ration of its change in
position along the arc of the circle to the time required for this change.

The angular velocity of an object moving along a circular path is the ratio of the change in the
object’s angular position to the time required for this change

The two quantities—angular velocities and tangential speed—are related by the equation

Sample Problem 2: The earth makes one rotation about its axis in 24 hours. Calculate (a) its
angular speed in units rad/s and (b) the tangential speed of an object at the equator due to its
rotational motion. The radius of the earth is 6.38x106m.
3. TANGENTIAL AND ANGULAR ACCELERATION
In uniform circular motion, tangential velocity has a constant magnitude (speed) but it is
constantly changing direction. Therefore, there is acceleration. However, direction of the
centripetal acceleration is perpendicular to the direction of the velocity so there is only a
change of direction and no change of speed.
 
Tangential acceleration is defined as the change in speed of an object moving in a
circle, or of a point on a rotating object, divided by the time required for that change of
speed.

The angular acceleration of an object moving in a circle or rotating about an axis is


defined as the ratio of the object’s change in angular speed and the time required for
that change.

The two quantities angular and tangential acceleration are related by the following equation

4. CENTRIPETAL ACCELERATION
The centripetal acceleration is the acceleration directed to the center of the circular
path. It is the square of the tangential speed divided by the radius of the circle.
 
Sample Problem 3: A stone with a mass of 0.25 kg is at the end of a 1.42m string. If the
stone is swung with a speed of 12.64 m/s, what is its centripetal acceleration?
