Physics of TechnologyPHYS 1800 Laboratory/Demonstrations 1 Motion
Describing Motion • Position—where you are in space (D-meter) • Speed—how fast position is changing with time (DT-1 or m/s) • Acceleration—how fast speed is changing with time (DT-2 or m/s2) • (we will talk about direction and vectors later)
Graphing Motion Objectives:Understand what position, speed and acceleration are Learn to graph them versus time Develop some intuition for common situations Consider:Standing still Constant speed (different magnitudes) Constant acceleration (different magnitudes) Constant deceleration (different magnitudes) Arbitrary motion Acceleration Distance Speed Time Time Time

Arbitrary Acceleration Acceleration Distance Speed Time Time Time Walk slowly toward the wall at slow constant speed Stop for 2 sec just before the wall Run back to where you started, accelerating constantly Move back half way to wall at fast constant speed Jump up and down Spin around
Units of Motion • Need a distance unit: m, cm, mm, km • ft, in, mi • light years, furlongs • Need a time unit: sec, min, hr, day, year • ms, ns, fs • fortnights • Speed: A distance divided by time(DT-1) • m/s, mi/hr, mm/yr, furlongs/fortnight • Acceleration: A distance divided by time squared(DT-2) • A speed divided by time (DT-2) • m/s2, mi/hr2, mm/yr2, furlongs/fortnight2
