Displacement
Time taken
Displacement and Velocity in One Dimension

Definition:
Speed = |v(t)|
The v(t) vs. t plot is just the slope of the x(t) vs. t plot
Displacement and Velocity in One Dimension

A) YESB) NO
Are the plots shown at the left correctly related

The velocity vs. time plot of some object is shown to the right.
Which diagram below could be the Displacement vs. time plot for the same object?

Acceleration
33
For the Displacement and Velocity curves shown on the left, which is the correct plot of acceleration vs. time?
AA
BB
Checkpoint 1
35
AA
BB
For negative t, v(t) is decreasing so its derivative, a(t), must be negative. For positive t, v(t) is increasing so a(t) must be positive.
Typical A answer
a(t) = slope of v(t).... v(t) decreases then increases (never going negative)... this is confirmed by the displacement graph
Typical B answer

A ball is thrown straight up in the air.Its position as a function of time is shownin the plot to the right.
Which of the following statements is true as the ball goes up?
A)The acceleration is positive and the ball speeds upB)The acceleration is negative and the ball speeds upC)The acceleration is positive and the ball slows downD)The acceleration is negative and the ball slows down

Constant Acceleration
constanta(t) = a
42
At t = 0 a ball, initially at rest, starts to roll down a ramp with constant acceleration. Suppose it moves 1 foot between t = 0 sec and t = 1 sec.
How far does it move between t = 1 sec and t = 2 sec?
A) 1 foot B) 2 feet C) 3 feet D) 4 feet E) 6 feetRamp Demo
Checkpoint 2
45
Using the given information, the ball moves 1 foot in 1 second, so it must be accelerating at a rate of 1 foot per second per second. Between time=1 and time=2 seconds, the ball accelerates to 2 feet per second per second, so it travels 2 feet.
Typical B answer
when the ball moves one foot during t=0 to t=1 the acceleration is 2. The ball will move 4 feet from t=0 to t=2 with velocity 2. therefore from t=1 to t=2 it will move 4-1=3
Typical C answer
Since the ball moves 1 foot between t = 0 and t = 1 at constant acceleration, the ball will move the same distance between t = 1 and t = 2.
Typical A answer
