  3. Different types of motion

  4. 4 sec 4 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec 4 sec What is the difference between these motions? How can we characterize these motions?

  5. How can we characterize the motion? 4 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec The first step: PARTICLE MODEL – MOTION DIAGRAM We consider object as a single point without size or shape, disregard internal motion of the object.

  6. How can we characterize the motion? 4 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec Origin (x=0) 10 cm 20 cm 70 cm 40 cm x The second step: POSITION OF THE OBJECT (POINT) – COORDIANTE SYSTEM - DISPLACEMENT We introduce coordinate system: for motion along a line - only x (which means that y=0); for a motion in a plane – x and y.

  7. Different origins – different coordinates Physical meaning – displacement - 4 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec Origin (x=0) 10 cm 20 cm 70 cm 40 cm x Origin (x=0) -40 cm -30 cm -10 cm 20 cm x

  8. Displacement - initial position of the object If O is an origin then vector characterizes initial position of the object - final position of the object O (origin) Vector characterizes the final position of the object Vector is a displacement (final position minus initial position – does not depend on coordinate system) Standard notation for displacement is

  9. Displacement O (origin) Displacement does not depend on coordinate system

  10. Displacement Displacement is a vector, it does not depend on coordinate system

  11. How can we characterize the motion? The first step: PARTICLE MODEL – MOTION DIAGRAM The second step: POSITION OF THE OBJECT (POINT) – DISPLACEMENT The third step: (AVERAGE) VELOCITY 4 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec Average velocity is a vector: For a motion along the line – direction of velocity is along the line and the magnitude Origin (x=0) 10 cm 20 cm 70 cm 40 cm x

  12. AVERAGE VELOCITY The magnitude of velocity (vector) is called speed Example: We know initial position of the object (in some coordinate system) - We know the average velocity of the object during time Then: What is the final position of the object?

  13. How can we characterize the motion? The first step: PARTICLE MODEL – MOTION DIAGRAM The second step: POSITION OF THE OBJECT (POINT) – DISPLACEMENT The third step: (AVERAGE) VELOCITY The forth step: (AVERAGE) ACCELERATION Origin (x=0) 10 cm 20 cm 70 cm 40 cm x The change in position is characterized by average velocity, The change in velocity is characterized by average acceleration

  14. How can we characterize the motion? The first step: PARTICLE MODEL – MOTION DIAGRAM The second step: POSITION OF THE OBJECT (POINT) – DISPLACEMENT The third step: (AVERAGE) VELOCITY The forth step: (AVERAGE) ACCELERATION

  15. Acceleration is the change of velocity (speed can be the same)

  16. 4 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec Velocity is the same – zero acceleration

  17. Velocity is increasing –acceleration has the same direction as velocity 4 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec Velocity is decreasing –acceleration has the opposite direction 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec 4 sec

  18. What is the difference between these motions? 4 sec 4 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec 4 sec

  19. SI units Units of velocity: Basic Units: Time – seconds (s) Length – meters (m) Mass – kilogram (kg) Units of acceleration:
