Direction of Velocity and Acceleration Vector Quantities Conceptual Question

For each of the motions described below determine the algebraic sign ( or ) of the velocity and acceleration of

the object at the time specified For all of the motions the positive y axis is upward

Part A

An elevator is moving downward when someone presses the emergency stop button The elevator comes to rest a

short time later Give the signs for the velocity and the acceleration of the elevator after the button has been press

but before the elevator has stopped

Enter the correct sign for the elevators velocity and the correct sign for the elevators acceleration

separated by a comma For example if you think that the velocity is positive and the acceleration is

negative then you would enter +- If you think that both are zero then you would enter 00

Hint 1 Algebraic sign of velocity

The algebraic sign of velocity is determined solely by comparing the direction in which the object is moving

with the direction that is defined to be positive In this example upward is defined to be positive Thereforeany object moving upward whether speeding up slowing down or traveling at constant speed has positive

velocity

Hint 2 Algebraic sign of acceleration

The algebraic sign of acceleration is more difficult to determine than the algebraic sign of velocity The

acceleration of an object points in the same direction as the change in the velocity of an object If an object

is speeding up the change in the velocity points in the same direction as the velocity

If an object is slowing down the change in velocity points in the opposite direction to that of the velocity

+ minus 0

Once you know the direction of the acceleration you can determine its sign by comparing it to the defined

positive direction in this case upward

ANSWER

Correct

Part B

A child throws a baseball directly upward What are the signs of the velocity and acceleration of the ball

immediately after the ball leaves the childs hand

Enter the correct sign for the baseballs velocity and the correct sign for the baseballs acceleration

separated by a comma For example if you think that the velocity is positive and the acceleration is

negative then you would enter +- If you think that both are zero then you would enter 00

Hint 1 Algebraic sign of velocity

The algebraic sign of velocity is determined solely by comparing the direction in which the object is moving

with the direction that is defined to be positive In this example upward is defined to be positive Therefore

any object moving upward whether speeding up slowing down or traveling at constant speed has positive

ANSWER

Correct

Part C

A child throws a baseball directly upward What are the signs of the velocity and acceleration of the ball at the ver

top of the balls motion (ie the point of maximum height)

Enter the correct sign for the baseballs velocity and the correct sign for the baseballs acceleration

Direction of Velocity and Acceleration Vector Quantities Conceptual Question

For each of the motions described below determine the algebraic sign ( or ) of the velocity and acceleration of

the object at the time specified For all of the motions the positive y axis is upward

Part A

An elevator is moving downward when someone presses the emergency stop button The elevator comes to rest a

short time later Give the signs for the velocity and the acceleration of the elevator after the button has been press

but before the elevator has stopped

Enter the correct sign for the elevators velocity and the correct sign for the elevators acceleration

separated by a comma For example if you think that the velocity is positive and the acceleration is

negative then you would enter +- If you think that both are zero then you would enter 00

Hint 1 Algebraic sign of velocity

The algebraic sign of velocity is determined solely by comparing the direction in which the object is moving

with the direction that is defined to be positive In this example upward is defined to be positive Thereforeany object moving upward whether speeding up slowing down or traveling at constant speed has positive

velocity

Hint 2 Algebraic sign of acceleration

The algebraic sign of acceleration is more difficult to determine than the algebraic sign of velocity The

acceleration of an object points in the same direction as the change in the velocity of an object If an object

is speeding up the change in the velocity points in the same direction as the velocity

If an object is slowing down the change in velocity points in the opposite direction to that of the velocity

Part B

A child throws a baseball directly upward What are the signs of the velocity and acceleration of the ball

Direction of Velocity and Acceleration Vector Quantities Conceptual Question

For each of the motions described below determine the algebraic sign ( or ) of the velocity and acceleration of

the object at the time specified For all of the motions the positive y axis is upward

Part A

An elevator is moving downward when someone presses the emergency stop button The elevator comes to rest a

short time later Give the signs for the velocity and the acceleration of the elevator after the button has been press

but before the elevator has stopped

Enter the correct sign for the elevators velocity and the correct sign for the elevators acceleration

separated by a comma For example if you think that the velocity is positive and the acceleration is

negative then you would enter +- If you think that both are zero then you would enter 00

Hint 1 Algebraic sign of velocity

The algebraic sign of velocity is determined solely by comparing the direction in which the object is moving

with the direction that is defined to be positive In this example upward is defined to be positive Thereforeany object moving upward whether speeding up slowing down or traveling at constant speed has positive

velocity

Hint 2 Algebraic sign of acceleration

The algebraic sign of acceleration is more difficult to determine than the algebraic sign of velocity The

acceleration of an object points in the same direction as the change in the velocity of an object If an object

is speeding up the change in the velocity points in the same direction as the velocity

If an object is slowing down the change in velocity points in the opposite direction to that of the velocity

Correct

Part B

A child throws a baseball directly upward What are the signs of the velocity and acceleration of the ball

Hint 1 Algebraic sign of velocity

The algebraic sign of velocity is determined solely by comparing the direction in which the object is moving

with the direction that is defined to be positive In this example upward is defined to be positive Therefore

any object moving upward whether speeding up slowing down or traveling at constant speed has positive

velocity

Hint 2 Algebraic sign of acceleration

The algebraic sign of acceleration is more difficult to determine than the algebraic sign of velocity The

acceleration of an object points in the same direction as the change in the velocity of an object If an object

is speeding up the change in the velocity points in the same direction as the velocity

If an object is slowing down the change in velocity points in the opposite direction as the velocity

Once you know the direction of the acceleration you can determine its sign by comparing it to the defined

positive direction in this case upward

ANSWER

Correct

Problem 296

In the vertical jump an athlete starts from a crouch and jumps upward to reach as high as possible Even the best

athletes spend little more than 100 in the air (their hang time) Treat the athlete as a particle and let be hismaximum height above the floor

Part A

To explain why he seems to hang in the air calculate the ratio of the time he is above (moving up from

to and then moving down to ) to the time it takes him to go from the floor to that height Yo

A 15-kg rock is dropped from rest on the earth and reaches the ground in 175 When it is dropped from the same

height on Saturns satellite Enceladus it reaches the ground in 186

Part A

What is the acceleration due to gravity on Enceladus

ANSWER

Correct

Problem 296

In the vertical jump an athlete starts from a crouch and jumps upward to reach as high as possible Even the best

athletes spend little more than 100 in the air (their hang time) Treat the athlete as a particle and let be hismaximum height above the floor

Part A

To explain why he seems to hang in the air calculate the ratio of the time he is above (moving up from

to and then moving down to ) to the time it takes him to go from the floor to that height Yo

may ignore air resistance
