CHAPTER 3 Two-Dimensional Motion and Vectors
Scalars and Vectors • Scalars: Magnitude only • Examples: time, distance, speed,… • Vectors: Magnitude and Direction • Examples: displacement, velocity, acceleration,…
(x, y) y x Vectors in 2 Dimensions Vector distinguished by arrow overhead:A Representations: (x, y) (r, q) Cartesian Polar
Vector subtraction Vector Addition/Subtraction • 2nd vector begins at end of first vector • Order doesn’t matter Vector addition • A – B can be interpreted as A+(-B) • Order does matter
Going backwards, Vector Components Cartesian components are projections along the x- and y-axes
Example 3.1a The magnitude of (A-B) is : a) <0 b) =0 c) >0
Example 3.1b The x-component of (A-B) is: a) <0 b) =0 c) >0
Example 3.1c The y-component of (A-B) > 0 a) <0 b) =0 c) >0
Example 3.2 Some hikers walk due east from the trail head for 5 miles. Then the trail turns sharply to the southwest, and they continue for 2 more miles until they reach a waterfalls. What is the magnitude and direction of the displacement from the start of the trail to the waterfalls? 5 mi 2 mi 3.85 miles, at -21.5 degrees
Trajectory 2-dim Motion: Velocity v = Dr / Dt It is a vector(rate of change of position) Graphically,
Multiplying/Dividing Vectors by Scalars • Example: v = Dr / Dt • Vector multiplied by scalar is a vector: B = 2A • Magnitude changes proportionately: |B| = 2|A| • Direction is unchanged: B= A B A
2-d Motion with constant acceleration • X- and Y-motion are independent • Two separate 1-d problems: • x, vx, ax • y, vy, ay • Connected by time t • Important special case: Projectile motion • ax=0 • ay=-g
Projectile Motion • X-direction: (ax=0) • Y-direction: (ay=-g) Note: we ignore • air resistance • rotation of earth
Projectile Motion Acceleration is constant
Pop and Drop Demo The Ballistic Cart Demo
Finding Trajectory, y(x) 1. Write down x(t) 2. Write down y(t) 3. Invert x(t) to find t(x) 4. Insert t(x) into y(t) to get y(x) Trajectory is parabolic
Example 3.3 v0 An airplane drops food to two starving hunters. The plane is flying at an altitude of 100 m and with a velocity of 40.0 m/s. How far ahead of the hunters should the plane release the food? h X 181 m

Example 3.5a A softball leaves a bat with an initial velocity of 31.33 m/s. What is the maximum distance one could expect the ball to travel? 100 m
v0 h q D Example 3.6 A cannon hurls a projectile which hits a target located on a cliff D=500 m away in the horizontal direction. The cannon is pointed 50 degrees above the horizontal and the muzzle velocity is 75 m/s. Find the height h of the cliff? 68 m
