  1. Kinematics II January 5, 2020

  2. Remember this graph? WHAT ABOUT “B”??

  3. Conclusion • Velocity is not the same at all times. • It is changing • A changing velocity is called an acceleration.

  4. Acceleration in Pictures Constant Velocity Constant Acceleration

  5. Average Acceleration • Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity. • Dimensions are L/T2 • SI units are m/s²

  6. Example – Constant acceleration a=1 m/s2

  7. Instantaneous Acceleration • The instantaneous acceleration is the limit of the average acceleration as t approaches 0

  8. Calculus

  9. Instantaneous Acceleration -- graph • The slope of the velocity vs. time graph is the acceleration • The green line represents the instantaneous acceleration • The blue line is the average acceleration

  10. Acceleration and Velocity, 1 • When an object’s velocity and acceleration are in the same direction, the object is speeding up • When an object’s velocity and acceleration are in the opposite direction, the object is slowing down

  11. Example • Acceleration and velocity are in opposite directions • Acceleration is uniform (blue arrows maintain the same length) • Velocity is decreasing (red arrows are getting shorter) • Positive velocity and negative acceleration

  12. Some math. Assume constant acceleration

  13. More …

  14. One more calculus trick: the chain rule

  15. Kinematic Equations -- summary from the book.

  16. Kinematic Equations • The kinematic equations may be used to solve any problem involving one-dimensional motion with a constant acceleration • You may need to use two of the equations to solve one problem • Many times there is more than one way to solve a problem

  17. Kinematic Equations, specific • For constant a, • Can determine an object’s velocity at any time t when we know its initial velocity and its acceleration • Does not give any information about displacement

  18. Kinematic Equations, specific • For constant acceleration, • The average velocity can be expressed as the arithmetic mean of the initial and final velocities

  19. Kinematic Equations, specific • For constant acceleration, • Gives final position in terms of velocity and acceleration • Doesn’t tell you about final velocity

  20. Graphical Look at Motion – displacement – time curve • The slope of the curve is the velocity • The curved line indicates the velocity is changing • Therefore, there is an acceleration

  21. Graphical Look at Motion – velocity – time curve • The slope gives the acceleration • The straight line indicates a constant acceleration

  22. Graphical Look at Motion – acceleration – time curve • The zero slope indicates a constant acceleration

  23. Let’s get real and throw something out of a building and watch it fall. This is called free fall.

  24. Freely Falling Objects • A freely falling object is any object moving freely under the influence of gravity alone. • It does not depend upon the initial motion of the object • Dropped – released from rest • Thrown downward • Thrown upward

  25. Acceleration of Freely Falling Object • The acceleration of an object in free fall is directed downward, regardless of the initial motion • The magnitude of free fall acceleration is g = 9.80 m/s2 • g decreases with increasing altitude • g varies with latitude • 9.80 m/s2 is the average at the Earth’s surface • In the English/American system, g=32 ft/sec2.

  26. Acceleration of Free Fall/Rise, cont. • We will neglect air resistance • Free fall motion is constantly accelerated motion in one dimension • Use the kinematic equations to solve problems.

  27. Free Fall Example Let’s drop an object from the top of this building by simply releasing it. How long will it take to get to the ground? How fast will it be going when it gets to the ground? What color is the object? Issues – Where is the origin? IS y the same thing as x?? How can that be???

  28. Use Transparencies …..

  29. Motion Equations from Calculus • Displacement equals the area under the velocity – time curve • The limit of the sum is a definite integral
