2.6 Freely Falling Bodies
There are three parts to the motion of the coin. On the way
up, the coin has a vector velocity that is directed upward and
has decreasing magnitude. At the top of its path, the coin
momentarily has zero velocity. On the way down, the coin
has downward-pointing velocity with an increasing magnitude.
Does the pellet in part b strike the ground beneath the cliff
with a smaller, greater, or the same speed as the pellet
in part a?
Position-Time Graphs
We can use a
postion-time graph to
illustrate the motion of
an object.
Postion is on the y-
axis
Time is on the x-axis
Plotting a Distance-Time Graph
Axis
Distance (position) on
y-axis (vertical)
Time on x-axis
(horizontal)
Slope is the velocity
Steeper slope = faster
No slope (horizontal
line) = staying still
Where and When
We can use a position
time graph to tell us
where an object is at any
moment in time.
Where was the car at 4
s?
30 m
How long did it take the
car to travel 20 m?
3.2 s
Interpret this graph
Describing in Words
Describing in Words
Describe the motion of
the object.
When is the object
moving in the positive
direction?
Negative direction.
When is the object
stopped?
When is the object
moving the fastest?
The slowest?
Accelerated Motion
In a position/displacement
time graph a straight line
denotes constant velocity.
In a position/displacement
time graph a curved line
denotes changing velocity
(acceleration).
The instantaneous velocity
is a line tangent to the
curve.
Accelerated Motion
Velocity is placed on
the vertical or y-axis.
Time is place on the
horizontal or x-axis.
We can interpret the
motion of an object
using a velocity-time
graph.
Constant Velocity
Objects with a
constant velocity have
no acceleration
This is graphed as a
flat line on a velocity
time graph.
Changing Velocity
Objects with a
changing velocity are
undergoing
acceleration.
Acceleration is
represented on a
velocity time graph as
a sloped line.
Positive and Negative Velocity
Between which
time does the
rocket have the
greatest
acceleration?
At which point
does the velocity
of the rocket
change.
Displacement from a Velocity-Time
Graph
The shaded region under
a velocity time graph
represents the
displacement of the
object.
The method used to find
the area under a line on a
velocity-time graph
depends on whether the
section bounded by the
line and the axes is a
rectangle, a triangle
