Kinematics

Kinematics
As physics try to study the fundamental parts of the universe in terms of relationship of matter and energy, one of its branches focus on describing motion – kinematics.
Kinematics describes the motion of objects based on a specific frame of reference. It describes its velocity, acceleration, displacement and amount of time it travelled.
In describing motion, it is very important to convert units and apply rules on significant figures.

Kinematics
Acoustic
Thermodynamics
Mechanics

Which of the following is physics concerned about?
relationship of matter and energy
truth about life after death
morality and justice
aesthetics i design

displacement and velocity
frequency and wavelength
direction and distance
time and acceleration

Multiple Choice
The SI unit for time is_______.
hours
minutes
seconds
millisecond
9
Multiple Choice
Which quantity refers to the rate of movement, or fast a moving object is?
displacement
speed
time
force

Distance vs Displacement
Distance is the total length of travel irregardless of the direction of motion. It is a scalar quanitity.
Displacement is the total distance moved based on where the object came from. It is a vector quantity
11
Distance vs Displacement
Distance is the total length travelled irregardless of the direction of motion. It is a scalar quantity.
Displacement is the total distance moved based on where the object came from. It is a vector quantity. It is also defined as "change in position."
12
Distance vs Displacement
Distance is the total length travelled irregardless of the direction of motion. It is a scalar quantity.
Displacement is the total distance moved based on where the object came from. It is a vector quantity. It is also defined as "change in position."
13
Distance vs Displacement
If you walk from home going to school for 2.5 km and then went back home...
your distance travelled is
5.0 km
your displacement is
0 km.
14
Distance vs Displacement
In solving for displacement, you can assign positive or negative directions.
If you took 3 steps forward, 5 steps backwards, and then 10 steps forwards again, what will be the displacement?
(+5 steps) + (-7 steps) + (+10 steps) = +8 steps
What about the total distance travelled?
15
Multiple Choice
The sum of all movements from start to the end of motion is best described as____.
distance
displacement
motion
donkey
16
Multiple Choice
The change in an objects position from the final position to initial position.
displacement
distance
motion
reference point
17
Multiple Choice
A man walks 5 miles forwards, 6 miles backwards and then 2 miles forwards. What is his displacement?
1 mile forward
13 miles
3 miles forward
1 mile
18
Multiple Choice
Jerry walked from home to school, then from the school to the park. What is his total distance?
2 km
5 km
8 km
10 km
19
Multiple Choice
20
Speed vs Velocity
Speed is the total distance travelled per unit of time. It refers to how fast the object moves.
Velocity is the total displacement per unit of time. It is the speed in a given direction.
Both are measured using the SI unit m/s or ms-1 or sometimes km/hr or kmhr-1
21
Speed vs Velocity
Speed is the total distance travelled per unit of time. It refers to how fast the object moves.
Velocity is the total displacement per unit of time. It is the speed in a given direction.
Both are measured using the SI unit m/s or ms-1 or sometimes km/hr or kmhr-1

Distance over time is the definition of ___.

31
Average vs Instantaneous Speed
speed for the travel, speed for a specific instance
As an object travels, it may change speeds. It may speed up, slow down, change direction or even stop.
The speed for the total distance over time frame is the average speed.
The speed at any given instance is the instantaneous speed.
32
Acceleration
speeding up, slowing down, or changing directions
When an object speeds up, slows down or changes direction, it also changes the displacement and velocity. This change is called acceleration.
Acceleration can be a positive or negative depending on the direction of the velocity (+ or -) and whether it speeds up or slows down.
33
Acceleration
34
Acceleration
You experience acceleration when you:
step on the gas and speed up
step on the breaks and slow down
turn your steering wheel
35
In this graph, velocity is constant, and acceleration is zero because there is no change in velocity.
36
In this graph, initial velocity is 50 m/s, and final velocity is 0 m/s. Acceleration is NOT zero because the velocity changed.
37
Multiple Choice
The velocity of an object increases from 30 m / s to 50 m / s in 5.0 seconds.
What is the average acceleration of the object?
0.10 m / s2
0.25 m / s2
4.0 m / s2
10 m / s2
38
Multiple Choice
A car travels at an average speed of 60 km / h for 15 minutes. How far does the car travel in 15 minutes?
4.0 km
15 km
240 km
900 km
39
Multiple Choice

60
60 mi/hr
240 miles
2 hours
