Motion Continued
Overzicht
Everything around you is either moving or could be set moving, and physics begins by describing that motion precisely. How fast is a sprinter going? Is a car speeding up or slowing down? How far does a dropped stone fall in two seconds? Every one of these questions is answered with a handful of equations and two simple graphs.
In this lesson you will define speed, velocity and acceleration, then read and draw distance-time and speed-time graphs with confidence. You will calculate speed from a gradient, distance from an area, and handle free fall and terminal velocity. By the end you should be able to look at a graph and tell its whole story.
Doelstellingen
- Define speed as distance travelled per unit time; recall and use the equation s v = t
- Define velocity as speed in a given direction
- Recall and use the equation total distance travelled average speed = total time taken
- Sketch, plot and interpret distance-time and speed-time graphs
- Determine, qualitatively, from given data or the shape of a distance-time graph or speed-time graph when an object is: (a) at rest (b) moving with constant speed (c) accelerating (d) decelerating
- Calculate speed from the gradient of a straight- line section of a distance-time graph
- Calculate the area under a speed-time graph to determine the distance travelled for motion with constant speed or constant acceleration
- State that the acceleration of free fall g for an object near to the surface of the Earth is approximately constant and is approximately
- [Supplement] Define acceleration as change in velocity per unit time; recall and use the equation ∆v a = ∆t
- [Supplement] Determine from given data or the shape of a speed-time graph when an object is moving with: (a) constant acceleration (b) changing acceleration
- [Supplement] Calculate acceleration from the gradient of a speed-time graph
- [Supplement] Know that a deceleration is a negative acceleration and use this in calculations
- [Supplement] Describe the motion of objects falling in a uniform gravitational field with and without air/ liquid resistance, including reference to terminal
