Average Speed vs Average Velocity• Velocity is not the same as speed.
• average velocity- the change in position divided by the time it took for that change to occur; a ratio of an object’s change in position (displacement) to the time it takes for that change to occur
vavg = distance traveled time of travel
vavg = ∆x ∆t

quantities• speed is the rate distance covered
over time• speed is a scalar quantity• velocity is the rate displacement
traveled over time• velocity is a vector quantity• speed & velocity equal magnitudes

Section 4: Lines That Intersect
![Page 85: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
Lines That Intersect• Sometimes, a problem will ask you to
compare/contrast the motion of 2 objects.
• To do this, use the information provided in the problem to construct a position vs time graph.
• Then, use the graph to compare/contrast the 2 objects’ motions.
![Page 86: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)

What do the 2 cars have in common?
![Page 88: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
Do they ever share the same velocity?
![Page 89: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
Example 2—100 meter dash• Harry gives Sam a 30. m head start in
the 100. m dash. Harry can run at 10.0 m/s, while Sam only runs at 6.0 m/s.
![Page 90: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
Example• Does Harry win?
![Page 91: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
Solution• Draw a position vs time graph for a
100. m dash, plotting both runners.Position vs Time

Example• If Harry wins, at what time & place
does he catch up to Sam?
![Page 93: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
Solution• Now, you can determine the equation
of each line.
• Remember, the equation of a line is
• Since we are using position, time, & velocity, the equation becomes
y = mx + b
![Page 94: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
Solution
x = vt + b
![Page 95: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
Solution• For Harry…
• Where, vH = Harry’s velocity
• bH = where Harry begins
xH = vHtH + bH
![Page 96: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
Solution• So…
xH = 10t
![Page 97: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
Solution• For Sam…
• Where, vS = Sam’s velocity
• bS = where Sam begins
xS = vStS + bS
![Page 98: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
Solution• So…
xS = 6t + 30
![Page 99: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
Solution• Since you are looking for the point
where Harry & Sam pass each other, that means the coordinates (tH, xH) & (tS, xS) are equal.
• So, set the 2 equations for each line equal to each other & solve for t.
![Page 100: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
Solution
10t = 6t + 30 4t = 30 t = 7.5 sec
![Page 101: Which car/s is/are undergoing an acceleration? Which car experiences the greatest acceleration?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e0c5503460f94af5a9f/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
Solution• Now, that you know at what time
Harry catches up to Sam, you can calculate at what place this happens.
• Plug the value for time (7.5 sec) into the equation & solve for x.
xH = 10t = (10.0 m/s) (7.5 s) xH = 75 m
