A honey bee makes several trips from the hive to a flower
garden. The velocity graph is shown below.
What is the total distance traveled by the bee?

To find the displacement (position shift) from the velocity
function, we just integrate the function. The negative
areas below the x-axis subtract from the total
displacement.
Displacement   V  t  dt

To find distance traveled we have to use absolute value.
Distance Traveled   V  t  dt
b

Find the roots of the velocity equation and integrate in
pieces, just like when we found the area between a curve
and the x-axis. (Take the absolute value of each integral.)
Or you can use your calculator to integrate the absolute
value of the velocity function.

Every AP exam I have seen
has had at least one
problem requiring students
to interpret velocity and
position graphs.

Linear Motion

V(t) = 2t - 2 , 1  t  4
t
V(t) is the velocity in m/sec of a particle moving along the x-axis
and starting at the position, s(0) = 8.
a) Determine when the particle is moving to the right, to the left,
and stopped.
b) Find the particle’s displacement for the given time interval
and its final position.
c) Find the total distance traveled by the particle.

V(t) is the velocity in m/sec of a particle moving along the x-axis

a) Determine when the particle is moving to the right, to the left,
and stopped.
Particle is moving left on 1 < t < 2, stopped at t =
2 and moving right on 2 < t < 4.
b) Find the particle’s displacement for the given time interval
and its final position.

Effects of Acceleration
A car moving with initial velocity of 5 mph accelerates at
the rate of a(t) = 2.4 t mph per second for 8 seconds.
a) How fast is the car going when the 8 seconds are up?
b) How far did the car travel during those 8 seconds?

In the linear motion equation:
dS
 V t 
dt
V(t) is a function of time.
dS  V  t  dt
For a very small change in time, V(t) can be
considered a constant.
S  V  t  t
We add up all the small changes in S to get
the total distance.
S  V1  t  V2  t  V3  t  
S  V1  V2  V3   t

S  V  t  t
We add up all the small changes in S to get
the total distance.
S  V1  t  V2  t  V3  t  
S  V1  V2  V3   t
k
S   Vn  t
n 1

S   Vn  t
As the number of subintervals becomes
infinitely large (and the width becomes
infinitely small), we have integration.
n 1
S   V  t  dt

This same technique is used in many different real-life
problems.

Example 5:
National Potato Consumption
The rate of potato consumption
for a particular country was:
C  t   2.2  1.1t
where t is the number of years
since 1970 and C is in millions
of bushels per year.
For a small
t , the rate of consumption is constant.
The amount consumed during that short time is C  t   t .

Example 5:
National Potato Consumption
C  t   2.2  1.1t
The amount consumed during that short time is C  t   t .
We add up all these small
amounts to get the total
consumption:

Work:
work  force  distance
Calculating the work is easy
when the force and distance are
constant.
When the amount of force
varies, we get to use calculus!
