  1. Chapter 2 Motion Along a Straight Line

  2. Linear motion • In this chapter we will consider moving objects: • Along a straight line • With every portion of an object moving in the same direction and at the same rate (particle-like motion)

  3. Types of physical quantities • In physics, quantities can be divided into such general categories as scalars, vectors, matrices, etc. • Scalars – physical quantities that can be described by their value (magnitude) only • Vectors – physical quantities that can be described by their value and direction

  4. Distance, position, and displacement • Distance (scalar) a total length of the path traveled regardless of direction (SI unit: m) • In each instance we choose an origin – a reference point, convenient for further calculations • Position of an object (vector) is described by the shortest distance from the origin and direction relative to the origin • Displacement (vector) – a change from position xi to position xf

  5. Velocity and speed • Average speed (scalar) - a ratio of distance traveled (over a time interval) to that time interval (SI unit: m/s) • Average velocity (vector) - a ratio of displacement (over a time interval) to that time interval • Instantaneous velocity (vector) – velocity at a given instant • Instantaneous speed (scalar) – a magnitude of an instantaneous velocity

  6. Velocity and speed

  7. Velocity and speed

  8. Instantaneous velocity • The instantaneous velocity is the slope of the line tangent to the x vs. t curve • This would be the green line • The light blue lines show that as Δt gets smaller, they approach the green line

  9. Acceleration • Average acceleration (vector) - a ratio of change of velocity (over a time interval) to that time interval (SI unit = (m/s)/s = m/s2) • Instantaneous acceleration (vector) – a rate of change of velocity at a given instant

  10. Acceleration • The slope (green line) of the velocity-time graph is the acceleration • The blue line is the average acceleration

  11. Chapter 2 Problem 15 An object moves along the x axis according to the equation x(t) = (3.00 t2 - 2.00 t + 3.00) m, where t is in seconds. Determine (a) the average speed between t = 2.00 s and t = 3.00 s, (b) the instantaneous speed at t = 2.00 s and at t = 3.00 s, (c) the average acceleration between t = 2.00 s and t = 3.00 s, and (d) the instantaneous acceleration at t = 2.00 s and t = 3.00 s.

  12. Case of constant acceleration • Average and instantaneous accelerations are the same • Conventionally • Then

  13. Case of constant acceleration • Average and instantaneous accelerations are the same • Conventionally • Then

  17. Chapter 2 Problem 28 A particle moves along the x axis. Its position is given by the equation x = 2 + 3t - 4t2, with x in meters and t in seconds. Determine (a) its position when it changes direction and (b) its velocity when it returns to the position it had at t = 0.

  18. Case of free-fall acceleration • At sea level of Earth’s mid-latitudes all objects fall (in vacuum) with constant (downward) acceleration of • a = - g ≈ - 9.8 m/s2≈ - 32 ft/s2 • Conventionally, free fall is along a vertical (upward) y-axis
