What is the volume of the rock? Density = mass/volume • 1) What is the density of a box with a mass of 176g and a volume of 3.2cm3? • 2) What is the volume of a liquid with a density of 18.6g/ml and a mass of 96g? • 3) What is the mass of an object that has a density of 12.4g/cm3 and a volume of 4.31cm3? Speed & Velocity • Frame of ______ – needed to determine _____ • of object ex. Sign post Distance – change in _________ – SI unit – _______ (m) – How far it has moved • Speed – distance an object _____ per unit of time – Speed = distance/_______ – SI ___ – meter/second (m/s) or larger unit (km/h) Speed S=d/t • 1) A car traveling at a constant speed covers a distance of 750m in 25s. What is the speed? • 2) A passenger elevator operates at an average speed of 8m/s. If the 60th floor is 219m above the 1st floor, how long does it take the elevator to go from the 1st to 60th floor? S = d/t • 3) A motorcyclist travels an average speed of 20km/h. If the cyclist is going to a friend’s house 5km away, how long does it take the cyclist to make the trip? • 4) An ant travels 75cm in 5s. What was the ant’s speed? • 5) It took you 6.5h to drive 550km. What was your speed? Average Speed Average speed • total distance traveled • _____ by the total time of travel total distance traveled was 5 km and the total time was 1/4 h, or 0.25 h. The average speed was _______ Instantaneous Speed • speed at a given ____ • • • in time Ex. Speedometer speeding up or slowing down – _______ speed is changing _______ speed, the instantaneous speed _______ change Displacement • _____ & ______ of an object's change in position from the starting point • length of the runner's displacement & the distance traveled would be the _____ if the runner's motion was in a single direction Motion • ______ of an object • • over a period of time can be shown on a distance-time graph Time – plotted on ________ axis Distance traveled – plotted on vertical ___ Graphing Motion Velocity = distance/____ • speed of an object & • • the _____ of its motion velocity of an object ___ ____ even if the speed of the object remains constant SI unit – ______ Change in speed = change in _____ as long as direction remains the _____ ___________ • Rate of change in _______ • Occurs when object changes ______, direction, or BOTH • _______ acceleration – speed increasing • Negative acceleration – speed _________ Positive Acceleration • acceleration is in the same ______ as the velocity – speed increases Negative Acceleration • speed _______ – the acceleration is in the ______ direction from the velocity Changing Direction • speed of the horses in this carousel is _____, but the horses are accelerating because their direction is _______ constantly Calculating Acceleration Calculating Velocity Sample Problems • 1) A jet starts at rest and at the end of runway it has reached a speed of 80m/s in 20s. • 2) Skateboarder moving in a straight line at a constant speed of 3m/s and comes to stop in 2s. _____ – push or ____ • Sometimes ______ • • forces are obvious but not always can cause the ______ of an object to change force of moving ball causes ball at rest to move in the _______ of the force Forces • ___ force – 2 or more • • forces acting on a object @ same ____ zero because the ___ forces cancel each other Forces ____ in size & _______ in direction – balanced forces ________ forces • 2 students pushing with • ________ forces in opposite directions – net force occurs in the direction of the _______ force net force – will be the __________ between the two forces because they are in opposite ________ Unbalanced forces • forces are combined • (______ together) because they are exerted on the box in the _______ direction net force that acts on this box – found by _______ the two forces together Inertia – tendency of an object to _______ any change in its motion • If object is _______, it will have uniform motion • It will keep moving at the same _____ & in same ________ unless acted on by an unbalanced force • velocity of the object remains _______ unless a force changes it • object at ______ remains at rest Inertia • inertia of an object is related to its mass – greater the ____ of object the greater its inertia • Sir Isaac ______ – stated rules that describe the effects of forces on the _______ of objects – known as Newton's law's of motion Newton’s ______ Law of Motion • Also called the law of _______ • states that an object moving at a constant velocity keeps moving at that _______ unless acted on by an unbalanced net force • object at rest stays at ____ unless acted on by an unbalanced net force law of inertia – explains what happens in a car crash • A car traveling about 50 km/h collides head-on with something solid, the car crumples, slows down, and stops in about 0.1 s law of inertia – explains what happens in a car crash • Any passenger not wearing a safety belt continues to move _______ at the same speed the car was traveling • Within about 0.02 s after the car stops, unbelted passengers slam into the dashboard, steering wheel, windshield, or the backs of the front seats law of inertia – explains what happens in a car crash • force needed to slow a person from 50 km/h to zero in 0.1 s is equal to 14 times the force that gravity exerts on the person • belt loosens a little as it restrains the person, increasing the time it takes to slow the person down • this reduces force exerted on the person • safety belt also prevents the person from being thrown out of the car
