Concepts
See PPT slide 6
the object is moving in the negative direction at a constant velocity
What represents the change in height?
the vertical displacement
If a hammer and feather are dropped on the moon (no air resistance, which hits the ground first?
They hit at the same time.
A bicyclist is traveling at +25 m/s when he begins to decelerate at -4 m/s/s. How fast is he traveling after 5 seconds?
5 m/s
If an object is moving to the left but accelerating to the right what is it doing?
Slowing Down
If I run 20 meters to a tree and 20 meters back what is my distance and displacement?
displacement=0m
Draw a displacement time graph for an object falling
Draw an acceleration time graph for something falling
You throw a baseball up at a speed of 16 m/s how high does it go in .96 s?
10.8 m
See PPT slide 8
-2 m/s
A soccer ball is kicked horizontally at 15 m/s from a cliff 10 meters above the ground how far from the cliff does it land?
Use an xy chart
find time first
t=1.42s
So
x=21 m
See PPT slide 9
Slowing down in the positive direction
The value of Vi at max height
0
A plane drops a package from 150 m above the ground. How fast is it moving right before it hits the ground?
54m/s
See PPT slide 10
(1) The person is traveling in the positive direction for 20 s at a constant velocity of 0.75 m/s. They travel from 0 m to 15 m at that velocity. (2) The person stands still at 15 m for 10 s. Their velocity is 0 m/s because they are not moving. (3) The person then continues in the positive direction at a constant velocity of 1 m/s. They travel from 15 m to 25 m.
