2-1 Position, Distance, and Displacement
In a coordinate system Before describing motion, you must set up a coordinate system – define an origin and a positive direction.
2-1 Position, Distance, and Displacement
The distance is the total length of travel;
if you drive from your house to the grocery store and back, How much distance is covered?
2-1 Position, Distance, and Displacement
Displacement is the change in position.
If you drive from your house to the grocery store and then to your friend’s house, What is your displacement and the distance you have traveled?
2-2 Average Speed and Velocity The average speed is defined as the distance traveled divided by the time the trip took:
Average speed = distance / elapsed time
What is the average speed of the red car a) 40.0 mi/h, b) more than 40.0 mi/h, c) less than 40.0 mi/h?
2-2 Average Speed and Velocity
Average velocity = displacement / elapsed time
If you return to your starting point, what is your average velocity?.

2-2 Average Speed and Velocity
Graphical Interpretation of Average Velocity
Plot this motion on a x-t graph.

Graphical Interpretation of Average Velocity x-t graph:
2-3 Instantaneous Velocity Definition:
(2-4)
This means that we evaluate the average velocity over a shorter and shorter period of time; as that time becomes infinitesimally small, we have the instantaneous velocity.
What is the unit and dimension of the instantaneous velocity
v = Limit ofFor a very short time

v = limΔt→0

2-3 Instantaneous Velocity This plot shows the average velocity being measured over shorter and shorter intervals. The instantaneous velocity is tangent to the x vs. t curve.

Graphical Interpretation of Average and Instantaneous Velocity on the x-t plot
2-4 Acceleration: change of velocity
Average acceleration: Total change of velocity for the trip

What is the SI unit of acceleration?
What is the dimension of acceleration?
2-4 Acceleration
Graphical Interpretation of Average and Instantaneous Acceleration on v-t graph:
2-4 Acceleration Acceleration (increasing speed) and deceleration (decreasing speed)
What is the value of v final and v initial in each case?
What is the sign of a and v in each case?

Deceleration (decreasing speed)
2-5 Motion with Constant Acceleration How the velocity changes If the acceleration is constant?
Write proper equations for the instantaneous and average velocity from the graph:

2-5 Motion with Constant Acceleration
The relationship between position and time follows a characteristic curve.

2-7 Freely Falling Objects
Free fall is the motion of an object subject only to the influence of gravity. The acceleration due to gravity is a constant, g.
2-7 Freely Falling Objects
An object falling in air is subject to air resistance (and therefore is not freely falling).
Your key chain falling from the bridge
• Calculate acceleration, position, and velocity of your key chain free falling from the Golden Gate Bridge (227 m) after 1,2,3,4 seconds.
• How long it takes for the object to reach the water level?
• What is the velocity when it hits the water. • How much velocity is gained per second? • How much distance is traveled per second? • Plot the a vs. t, v vs. t, and y vs. t • What is the conclusion?

Summary of Chapter 2
• Distance: total length of travel
• Displacement: change in position
• Average speed: distance / time
• Average velocity: displacement / time
• Instantaneous velocity: average velocity measured over an infinitesimally small time
Summary of Chapter 2 • Instantaneous acceleration: average acceleration measured over an infinitesimally small time
• Average acceleration: change in velocity divided by change in time
• Deceleration: velocity and acceleration have opposite signs
• Constant acceleration: equations of motion relate position, velocity, acceleration, and time
• Freely falling objects: constant acceleration g = 9.81 m/s2
