Linear MotionTRANSLATION ONLY!

Object maintains angular orientation ()measured in meters - SI unitother units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters, millimeters

Rectilinear motion - if path of one point on object is a straight lineCurvilinear motion – if path of one point on object is curved

Angular MotionROTATION ONLY!

Object rotates about a fixed point (axis)

measured in radians – SI Unitother units – degrees, revolutions

but this point does NOT have to lie within the object

Types of Motion

• General– combination of linear and angular motion

• translation and rotation

Kinematics is the study of motion without regard for the forces causing the motion or …

the description of motion

• there are three basic kinematic variables– position, velocity and acceleration

• the position of an object is simply its location in space– changes in position can be described by distance or displacement

• the velocity of an object is how fast it is changing its position

• the acceleration of an object is how fast the velocity is changing

Frame 1Position data is often acquired by digitizing the x and y coordinates from film or video.

Velocities and accelerations are calculated from the position data.

Page 5: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Position and Displacement (d)

• Position (s) is the location of an object in space

• units: m, cm, km, in, ft, mi

• Displacement (s= sf - si) is the change in position of an object

displacement = d d

s1

s2

d = s1 – s2

Page 6: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

• Problem:

• how do you describe s1 and s2?

• If you put the arrow on graph paper you describe position with x- & y-coordinates

d

s1 = (x1,y1)

s2 = (x2,y2)

d = s1 – s2

X

Y

Page 7: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

d

s1 = (x1,y1)

s2 = (x2,y2)

d = s1 – s2

X

Y

d = s1 – s2

d = (x1,y2) – (x2,y2) How do you do this?

•Realize that displacement is a vector so you must determine either the Cartesian or polar coordinates

Page 8: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

•Two choices to describe vector

•Cartesian Coordinates (dx,dy)

•dx = x2 – x2 = distance in the x-direction

•dy = y2 – y1 = distance in the y-direction

•Polar Coordinates (d,)

•“How far and in which direction”2

Second problem: Since this movement occurs over time, displacement (as a vector) does NOT represent changes in the direction of movement well.

For example – what if s1 represents you at Building A and s2 represents you at Building B 10 minutes later.

d

s1

s2

d = s1 – s2

Page 11: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

So your actual route is around the buildings, traveling up and down city blocks.

Page 12: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Thus the actual distance you covered is more than displacement represents

X

Y

dx

dy

distance = the length of your travel in the x-direction (dx) plus the length of your travel in the y-direction (dy)BUT since we are only concerned with the length of travel we don’t distinguish between directions

distance = dx + dy

Page 13: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Distance ( )

• distance is the length of the path traveled

• it is a scalar - “How far”

• units: same as displacement

dx

dy

ddx + dy = distance =

Note: use “ ” for length

Page 14: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Example - Distance vs. Displacement

leg 1 = 2 miles

leg 3 = 2 miles

leg 2 = 3 miles

N

Total DISTANCE Traveled= 2 miles + 3 miles + 2 miles

= 7 miles

Average Velocity (v)

• rate of change of displacement wrt time

• velocity is a vector quantity– “How fast and in which direction”

• units: m/s, km/hr, mi/hr, ft/s

tdvvelocity

NOTE: displacement (d)is a vector so must obey rules of vector algebra when computing velocity.

Page 22: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

•When two velocities act on an object you find the net or resultant effect by adding the velocities.

•Because velocity is a vector you can’t simply add the numbers.

•Instead – you must use vector algebra to add the velocities.

In this example the boat is propelled to the right by its motor while the river’s current carries it towards the top of the picture. This describes 2 velocities

Page 23: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Other examples of velocities that can be added together include the wind direction when flying.

Page 24: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Use the laws of vector algebra.

Example - the pathof the swimmer isdetermined by thevector sum of the swimmer’s velocityand the river current’svelocity.

Adding Velocities

Page 25: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Example:

vswimmer = 2 m/svriver = 0.5 m/s

What is the swimmer’sresultant velocity?

Page 26: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Example - Solution

50 m

2 m/s

0.5 m/s

vR

vR = (2 m/s)2 + (0.5 m/s)2

vR = 2.06 m/s

= 14

Page 27: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Average Speed and Velocity

• average speed has a greater magnitude than average velocity unless there are no direction changes associated with travel

• in sports– average speed is often more important than

average velocity

1996 Olympic Marathon

Men 2:12:36 Josia Thugwane - RSA

Women 2:26:05 Fatuma Roba - ETH

Distance26 miles + 385 yards

26 miles * 1.61 km/mile= 41.86 km

385 yards * 0.915 m/yd= 352 m

Total = 41.86 km + .35 km

= 42.21 km

Page 29: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Average Speed & the Marathon

• marathon example (cont.)

t = 2:12:36 t=2 hrs (3600s/1 hr) + 12 min (60 s/ 1min) + 36 s

= 7,956 s

t = 2:26:05

= 8,765 s

Page 30: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Average Speed and the Marathon

• average speed = distance/timespeed = 42,210m/7956 s

= 5.3 m/s

speed = 42,210/8765 s

= 4.8 m/s

average velocity???

Page 31: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Average vs. Instantaneous

• average velocity is not very meaningful in athletic events where many changes in direction occur

• e.g. marathon– start and end in same place so

d 0

???0v

Page 32: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Instantaneous Values

• instantaneous velocity (v) is very important– specifies how fast and in what direction one is

moving at one particular point in time– magnitude of instantaneous velocity is exactly

the same as instantaneous speed

In certain activities people experience + & - accelerations. By standardizing these accelerations to the normal acceleration on earth (-9.8 m/s/s) you get an idea of how much force they are experiencing

Page 46: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Relationships Betweens, v, & a

• v is the rate of change of s wrt time

• a is the rate of change of v wrt time

• consider a graph of s vs. time– s on vertical axis– time on horizontal axis– rate of change is interpreted as the slope

Page 47: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Slope of a Curve

• “Slope” = number which describes the steepness of a line

– rise/run

– Note: this is the definition for the tangent of , opposite / adjacent

Page 48: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Changes in the slope

• positive slope– up and to the right

• negative slope– down and to the right

• quick change– very steep slope

• slow change– very flat slope

Steps to determining v vs. t curve from s vs. t curve

(1) draw a set of axes (v vs t) directly under the s vs. t curve

(2) locate all minimums, maximums, asymptotes, and inflection points

(3) plot zero value points for each corresponding min, max or asym

(4) plot mins or maxes for each inflection point

The above diagram shows a typical zero-g maneuver. However, the maneuver can be modified to provide any level of g-force less than one g. Some typical g-levels used on different tests and the corresponding time for each maneuver are as follows:

•Negative-g (-0.1 g): Approximately 15 seconds •Zero-g: Approximately 25 seconds •Lunar-g (one-sixth g): Approximately 40 seconds •Martian-g (one-third g): Approximately 30 seconds

What influences the shape of the path that an object follows when it is airborne?

Gravity makes it return to earth (i.e., fall).

Any initial horizontal velocity will make it move either forward or backward.

When both of these influences are present the object always follows a parabolic path.

Airborne Motion

• say a person jumps up into the air

• motion is influenced only by gravity while the person is in the air

• the CM will follow a parabolic path

v (m/s)

the change in velocity over timeis linear so we say thechange in velocity is constantThis constant acceleration is

= -9.8 m/s2

This is the rate at which any airborne

object will accelerate.

Airborne motion isUNIFORMLY ACCELERATED MOTION

This path is a parabola.

Projectile Motion: A special case of uniformly accelerated motion

If air resistance is negligible then only gravity affects the path (or trajectory) of a projectile.

Page 78: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Horizontal and vertical components of velocityare independent.

Vertical velocity decreases at a constant ratedue to the influence of gravity.

Positive velocitygets smaller

Vertical velocity = 0

Negative velocitygets larger

Vertical velocity = 0

3 Primary FactorsAffecting Trajectory

Page 81: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Projection Angle• The optimal angle of

projection is dependent on the goal of the activity.

• For maximal height the optimal angle is 90o.

• For maximal distance the optimal angle is 45o.

• Optimal angle changes if projection height is not equal to 0.

10 degrees30 degrees40 degrees45 degrees60 degrees75 degrees

Projection angle = 75 degrees

So angle that maximizes Range(optimal) = 45 degrees (or so it appears)

Page 88: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

Projection Height

• Projection height = release height - landing height

Page 89: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

So … as hprojection increasesthe optimal release decreases

Page 93: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

It’s possible to have a negative projection height (hrelease < hlanding)

In this case the optimal release is greater than 45 degrees

Long Jump• What is the optimum angle of takeoff for

long jumpers?

research shows that it should be 42-43 degrees

Long Jump

• when a jumper is moving at 10 m/s– the foot is not on the ground long enough

to generate a large takeoff angle– so jumpers maintain speed and live with a

low takeoff angle

• v is the most important factor in projectile motion

Suppose a zookeeper must shoot the banana from the banana cannon to the monkey who hangs from the limb of a tree. This particular monkey has a habit of dropping from the tree the moment that the banana leaves the muzzle of the cannon. If the monkey lets go of the tree the moment that the banana is fired, will the banana hit the monkey?

Page 102: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

If there is no gravity then the monkey floats ANDyou throw directly at the monkey, then the path of the banana will be a straight line (the “gravity-free path”). Since this path will cross the point where the monkey floats the monkey can catch and eat the banana!

Banana’s gravity-free path

Page 103: Linear Motion TRANSLATION ONLY! Object maintains angular orientation (  ) measured in meters - SI unit other units - inches, feet, miles, centimeters,

YEAH! It works! Since both banana and monkey experience the same acceleration each will fall equal amounts below their gravity-free path. Thus, the banana hits the monkey.

When you take gravity into consideration you STILL aim at the monkey!

Monkey’sGravity free path is “floating” at height of limb

Banana’s Gravity free path

Fall thru same height

Banana’s Gravity free path

Monkey’sGravity free path is “floating” at height of limb Fall thru same height

What happens when you throw the banana slower?

As long as you aim at the monkey he will still catch it. The only difference is that the monkey will fall farther before he catches it because it takes longer to travel the necessary horizontal distance.
