Agenda for Tuesday Oct. 7th 1. Go over test2. Speed notes
**New grades posted**
MotionDef. – an objects change in position relative to a
reference point
• To observe motion you need a reference point/frame of reference– Observe an object in relation to a stationary object
• Describe direction of an object with a reference direction– North, south, east, west, up, down
Motion• Distance measures the path taken
• Displacement – change in position of an object– Must be a straight line (shorter than distance)– Must be in a particular direction
Q. Which should you use when calculating how much gas you will use on a trip?
Q. Which does the saying, “As the crow flies” refer to?

Speed and Velocity
• An object is moving if it changes position against some background that stays the same
• Speed – how fast an object moves– Distance and time– UNITS = m/s– Equal distance in equal amounts of time =
constant speed
What is speed?
Agenda for Thursday Oct 9th 1. Finish notes2. Bozeman science3. Calculating speed
Average Speed
• Distance traveled divided by the total time
Speed = distance/time v=d/t
If you run 100 m in 10 seconds what is your average speed?
Velocity
• Velocity is speed and direction– 2.0 m/s north– 500 m/s toward California
• Direction can be positive or negative-4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4
A little bit more about Velocity
If you are on a bus going 15 m/s east then you are traveling 15 m/s east.
While it is moving you stand up and walk down the bus’s aisle while it is moving.
Q: Are you still moving the same velocity as the bus?
15 m/s east
1 m/s east
15 m/s east + 1 m/s east = 16 m/s east
1 m/s west
15 m/s east
15 m/s east + (- 1 m/s west) = 14 m/s east
Calculating
If a person runs 30 meters in 10 seconds. What is their speed?
If a car travels at 150 km/h. How long would it take them to travel 350 km?
If you travel 120 km north in 3 hours, what is your velocity?
What is the difference between speed and velocity?

9. If the slope of a line on a “distance vs. time” graph is steep. What is different about the motion then when it is not steep?
10. Changing speed is called “acceleration” (speeding up) or deceleration (slowing down). Describe the shape of an acceleration line on a Distance vs. Time graph of acceleration.

What is shown by a curved line on a distance vs time graph?
Agenda for Tuesday Feb 4th 1. Quiz2. Graph3. Acceleration notes
Graph
• Steeper the graph = faster motion• Horizontal line = stationary• Curved line = speed up or slowing down
Acceleration
• We know when our speed increases or decreases our velocity changes– Also when we change direction
• When you change velocity you are accelerating– Change in velocity is called acceleration– Acceleration includes direction as well– Units: m/s2
Acceleration as change in direction• Acceleration is a change in the direction
– WHY?
• Acceleration is a change in velocity– Velocity is speed AND direction
• If you are traveling at a constant speed and are turning in a circle, are you accelerating?
Calculating Acceleration
• Measure velocity at different times
Equation: acceleration = final velocity – initial velocity
timeOr
a = ∆v/t
Calculating Acceleration
• If acceleration is small, velocity is changing slowly• If acceleration is large, velocity is changing rapidly
• Positive acceleration means object is speeding up• Negative acceleration means object is slowing
down– Velocity is decreasing
Examplesa = ∆v/t
• If a person travels at 10 m/s and then speeds up to 15 m/s in 1.5 s, what is their acceleration?
• A person starts at 20 m/s and accelerates at 2 m/s2 until they reach 40 m/s. How long did they accelerate?
A skier was originally going 20 m/s and stopped in .5 s. What is the skier’s acceleration?
A flowerpot falls off a second story windowsill. The flowerpot starts from rest and hits the sidewalk 1.5 s later with a velocity of 14.7 m/s. What was the acceleration of the flowerpot?
What does ∆ stand for?Agenda for Thursday Feb 6th 1. Review Acceleration

Calculating Acceleration
A runner accelerates from 2 m/s to 6 m/s at a rate of 2 m/s2 . How long did it take?
A car is going 45 m/s and slows down to 24 m/s. It takes the car 5 s to slow down. What was the cars acceleration?
After a car accelerates at 5 m/s2 for 3 seconds it’s speed is 50 m/s. What was the initial velocity?
A person on a sled starts at the top of the hill standing still. They go down the hill and reach an acceleration of 3 m/s2 . It took 5 seconds to get to the bottom of the hill. What was the final velocity at the bottom of the hill?
A runner achieves a speed of 11 m/s after he starts. It took him 9 s to reach that speed. How long did it take? What distance did he cover?
Find the acceleration of a northbound subway train that slows down from 12 m/s to 9.6 m/s in .8 s.
