lecture week1.10

Chapter 12: Particle Kinematics

● “particle”: object can be modeled as a point

lecture week1.11

Rectilinear Kinematics

12-2 and 12-3: Rectilinear kinematics

● “Rectilinear”: 1-dimensional motion● only need one vector component● s, v, and a may be changing

lecture week1.12

Rectilinear Kinematics

fundamental definitions:

solving each for dt

differential relations (must be integrated):

lecture week1.13

Rectilinear Kinematics

problem solving:

● establish a coordinate axis (note positive direction)● identify initial conditions● solve the kinematic equations

lecture week1.14

Rectilinear Kinematics

● establish a coordinate axis (note positive direction)● identify initial conditions● solve the kinematic equations

Example:problem 12-18
