Chapter 3 Projectile Motion

TrigonometryWhen working with right triangles, if we

know two sides, we can find the other using the Pythagorean theory

A2 + B2 = C2 hypotenuse

Trigonometrya2 + b2 = c2

(8 m)2 + (x)2 = (12 m)2

10/17/13Today I will draw vectors, add them and find the resultant.

Warm Up – If I walk 10 m North, 5 m East, 10 m South and then 5 m West, what is my displacement?

Drawing vectors…To draw a vector you must represent both the direction and the magnitudeDirection is represented by the angle and arrow

Magnitude is represented by the length

Parts of a vector

Tip – ending point (arrow)

Tail – starting point

Drawing Vectors…Length of the vector is the

magnitudeAngle and arrow indicate

directionAngle represented by Greek letter theta

θ

Drawing Vectors - scaleWhen drawing vectors, you must use some scale.

Ex. 100 mYou clearly cannot draw 100 m on a piece of paper.

You must set up a workable scale. If 1 cm = 10 m, 10 cm = 100 m… You can draw 10 cm!

Drawing Vectors - scaleScaling rules of thumb…

Centimeters is a good scale to work in

If your numbers are too large… Divide by something and make 1 cm = that many units

If your numbers are too small… Multiply by something and make that many cm = 1 unit

*Remember to scale your unit back up at the end by doing the opposite!

Drawing Vectors - scale120 m, 90 m, 70 m

3500 km/h, 7200 km/h, 6000 km/h

0.6 mi, 0.3 mi, 0.2 mi

Adding VectorsWe can add two or more vectors together; when we do this we are finding the resultant

Two methods of adding vectors

Solving Graphically – Tip to Tail method Draw first vector Start next vector where the last

one ended (so its tail is connected to the previous vectors tip)

Draw your resultant vector Find the direction (including angle)

Solving Graphically

Example:

Vector Lab – Day 2Drawing your motion to scale

If you make 1 cm = 1 m, that would be OK, but quite small.

If you make 2 cm = 1 m, that would be better.

You can even make 5 cm = 1 m

Give the resultant. We will deal with direction tomorrow!

10/18/13Today I will find direction in vector addition

problems

Warm Up – Draw to scale and find the resultant:

1. You drive 27 miles North to the new Wal-mart to pick up some gift cards. You turn and drive 48 miles West to see your cousin’s baseball game. You then drive South for 62 miles for a graduation party. Find your displacement graphically.

2. What would be the best way to get home?

Vector DirectionLook at this example:

North and East.

When adding vectors, place them tip to tail to scale to find the resultant vector.

A good scale here might be 1cm = 10 km/h

100 km/h 20 km/h

What is the resultant vector?80 km/h East

Remember to scale your answer back up!

10/22/2013Today I will solve vector problems involving angles graphically.

Warm Up:A dog runs 50 m west toward a cat. His owner calls him and he runs 30 m north before deciding to chase a squirrel. He turns and runs 100 m west chasing the squirrel. Solve graphically for his resultant displacement (include direction)

Homework ReviewExercises

Drawing Problems With AnglesWe typically don’t travel directly N, S, E, W.

I drive my car 1200 km in a direction 23° S of W. What does this vector look like?

I drive my car 55 miles/hour in a direction 92° counter-clockwise from the East. Draw this vector.

ExampleYou travel 630 miles at 23° N of W. You then travel 470 miles directly South. You finish your trip by traveling 500 miles at 55° W of S.

Example: CrosswindAn airplane is flying 80 km/h north

is caught in a strong crosswind of 60 km/h blowing in a direction 20° W of S. What is the resultant velocity of the airplane?

1. Draw & resolve for the x and y components of each vector in your problem (keeping sign a priority). Does not need to be to scale or connected.

2. Add all x’s and all y’s separately3. Make a new triangle with your combined x and y (paying attention to sign). Does not need to be to scale.

4. Use trig to find the final resultant magnitude and direction
