2024-02-18 DMU MM Day 3 - Position, Velocity and Acceleration Analysis
Displacement:
• Consider the displacement of a point from
position P (represented by rp) to P' (represented
by rp'), in the x-y coordinate system. The
change in the position of the point, r, is found
by:
r = rp’- rp (1)

Kinematics Vs. Kinetics
Kinematics [Study of the real motion]
Ex.
1. Throwing a ball or stone. (vertical motion)
2. Moving objects like car, animals etc. (horizontal motion).
3. Shooting a bullet from the gun (Projectile motion).
Kinetics
7
Rectilinear Motion
Rectilinear motion is defined as a linear motion in which the direction
of the velocity remains constant that results its path along a straight
line.
8
Types of velocities
Instantaneous Velocity
It is the velocity of an object at a particular time. Also it can be defined as
the velocity of an object at a specific point of time.”
Average Velocity
It is defined as the change in position or displacement (∆x) divided by the
time intervals (∆t) in which the displacement occurs.
9
Types of accelerations
Constant Acceleration
As the average is constant, both the instantaneous and average
acceleration will become equal.
Average Acceleration
It is defined as the rate at which the velocity changes w. r. t time.
Instantaneous Acceleration
It is defined as the acceleration at a specific instant of time. Also it is
defined as the instant or instantaneous velocity considered during an
infinitesimal (very small) interval of time.

Types of accelerations cont.
Q1.
When the acceleration is constant, mention the three kinematic
equations that can be integrated in-order to find obtain the formulas that
relate the following quantities,
1. Constant acceleration.
2. Velocity.
3. Displacement.
4. Time.
Q1. Answer

Q2.
A projectile is fired vertically downward into a fluid medium with a starting velocity
of 60 m/s. The resistance caused by the fluid medium is 0.4 times the cube of
particle velocity in standard units. Determine the particle velocity and position
after 04 seconds.
Q1. Answer

Curvilinear Motion
If an object moves along a curved or a circular path, its motion is called
curvilinear motion.
Examples
1. Motion of a roller coaster.
2. Cycling in an oval-shaped track.
3. Javelin throw.
4. S-shaped/wavy motion of a snake.
5. Running on a curved race track.
It is an apparent force that does not exist when observed from a stationary
point not located on the moving object (such as a stationary system or an
inertial system in uniform motion). 14
Curvilinear Motion
Centrifugal force vs. Centripetal force
Centrifugal force, a fictitious force, peculiar [special, not general] to a
particle moving on a circular path, that has the same magnitude and
dimensions as the force that keeps the particle on its circular path (the
centripetal force) but points in the opposite direction.
The change in angular position w.r.t. the original position is δθ while the
change in the radial displacement is δr.
