Week 1
Topic Objectives:R206
Students will be able to:
1. Find the kinematic quantities (position, displacement,
velocity, and acceleration) of a particle traveling along a
straight path.
APPLICATIONS
2
The motion of large objects,
such as rockets, airplanes, or
cars, can often be analyzed
as if they were particles.
Why?
Dynamics:
Statics: The study of
1. Kinematics – concerned with
bodies in equilibrium.
the geometric aspects of motion
2. Kinetics – concerned with the
forces causing the motion

Vector form: a = dv / dt
Velocity: Position:

Students will be able to:
1. Determine position, velocity, and acceleration of a
particle using graphs.
APPLICATIONS

In many experiments, a
velocity versus position (v-s)
profile is obtained.

Similarly, the a-t graph can be constructed by finding the
slope at various points along the v-t graph. Using the results of
the first part where the velocity was found:

Topic Objectives:
Students will be able to:
1. Describe the motion of a particle traveling along a curved path.
2. Relate kinematic quantities in terms of the rectangular components
of the vectors.
APPLICATIONS

The path of motion of a plane can be
tracked with radar and its x, y, and z
coordinates (relative to a point on
earth) recorded as a function of time.
a = dv/dt = d2r/dt2 = ax i + ay j + az k
where ax = 𝑥 = 𝑣𝑥 = dvx /dt, ay = 𝑦 = 𝑣𝑦 = dvy /dt,
az = 𝑧 = 𝑣𝑧 = dvz /dt
𝑦 = 2 0.05 𝑥𝑥 = 0.1𝑥𝑥
Let 𝑢 = 0.1𝑥 ; 𝑣 = 𝑥
𝑦 = 𝑢𝑣 + 𝑣𝑢 = 0.1𝑥 2 + 0.1𝑥𝑥

Since 𝑥 = 5 m ; 𝑥 = 𝑣𝑥 = −3 m/s ; 𝑥 = 𝑣𝑥 = 𝑎𝑥 = −1.5 m/s 2
Substitute;
𝑦 = 0.1 5 −3 = −1.5 m/s
At x = 5 m
vy = – 1.5 m/s = 1.5 m/s
ay = 0.15 m/s2
