Force and Motion Part 1: Analysing Linear Motion Definitions:Distance The ________________ of the path an object travels from one location to another. Displacem The distance of an object travels from its ent ___________________ to its ___________________ in a straight line with ____________________. Speed The rate of change in____________________. Velocity The rate of change in ____________________. Accelerati The rate of change in ____________________ with on _____________. velocity, total length, initial position, time, displacement, distance, final position The equations of linear motion. v=, 2as Solving problems Basic problems A Perimeter of the circle is about 450 m. If Ahmad start runs from A and finish at the same place. Find out the value of:a. Distance b. Displacement If the time taken for finishing about 75 seconds. Find out the value of: a. Speed. b. Velocity Ticker tape problems Frequency = 50 Hz, time = 0.02 seconds. Problems: When using the 3 equations in the brown box. 1. Starting from rest, a runner reaches his top velocity in 5 seconds. He runs a distance of 30 m in the 5 seconds. Find out his acceleration. Solution: u = __0__ ms-1. s = ____30____ m t = _____5___ s and a = ? ms-2 a=, v = u + at, s = (u+v)t, s = ut + at2, v2 = u2 +

s = (u+v)t

s = ut + at2

v = u + 2as

In an activity for a Physics lesson, a student was instructed by his teacher to run due north for a distance of 12 m before moving east for another 16 m. The time taken was 20 s. What was the students? (a) Average speed (b) Average velocity?

By applying the brakes, a driver reduces his car's velocity from 20 ms-1 to 10 ms-1 after traveling a distance of 30 m. Find the deceleration of the car.

Sabrina driving her car at a velocity of 10 ms-1. On seeing an obstacle in front, she applies the brakes to stop her car. If the deceleration of the car is 2 ms-2, what is the distance her car travels before it comes to a halt

1. A cyclist starts from rest and reaches a velocity of 20 m s-1 in 8 s. Calculate his acceleration. a =?ms-2 t = 8 s v = 20ms-1 u = 0 ms-1

2. A dart leaves the barrel of a blow pipe of length 1.2 m at a speed of 15 m s-1. Find the time taken for the dart to navel in the barrel

3. Daniel is driving his car at a constant velocity of 20 m s-1. He steps on he brakes to reduce the velocity of the car to 10 m s-1 after traveling 30 m. Calculate the deceleration and the distance traveled before the car stops.

4. A light plane needs a velocity of 33 m s-1 for takeoff

If the plane can accelerate at 3 m s-1. Calculate the minimum length of the runway for the plane to reach the proper speed to take-off.

5. A sports car accelerates from rest and covers a distance of 90 m in 6 s. what is its acceleration?

6. A baseball pitcher holds a baseball in his hand for a distance of 3 m before throwing the fastball at a velocity of 39 m s-1.

Find the acceleration of the baseball before it is released.
