DEW

Determine position, velocity, and acceleration of a


particle using graphs.

Example #1
Given: The s-t graph for a sports car moving along a straight road.
Find: The v-t graph and a-t graph over the time interval shown.

What is your plan of attack for the problem?

EXAMPLE #1 (continued)
Solution: The v-t graph can be constructed by finding the slope
of the s-t graph at key points. What are those?
when 0 < t < 5 s;

v0-5 = ds/dt = d(3t2)/dt = 6 t m/s

when 5 < t < 10 s; v5-10 = ds/dt = d(30t75)/dt = 30 m/s

Example #1 (continued)
Similarly, the a-t graph can be constructed by finding the slope at various points
along the v-t graph.
when 0 < t < 5 s;

a0-5 = dv/dt = d(6t)/dt = 6 m/s2

when 5 < t < 10 s; a5-10 = dv/dt = d(30)/dt = 0 m/s2

Example #2

Given: The v-t graph shown.


Find: The a-t graph, average
speed, and distance
traveled for the 0 - 90 s
interval.
Plan:
Find slopes of the v-t curve and draw the a-t graph.
Find the area under the curve. It is the distance traveled.
Finally, calculate average speed (using basic definitions!).

DEW

Example #2 (continued)
Solution:

Find the at graph:


For 0 t 30

a = dv/dt = 1.0 m/s

For 30 t 90

a = dv/dt = -0.5 m/s


a(m/s)

Example #2 (continued)
Now find the distance traveled:
Ds0-30 = v dt = (1/2) (30)2 = 450 m
Ds30-90 = v dt
= (1/2) (-0.5)(90)2 + 45(90) (1/2) (-0.5)(30)2 45(30)
= 900 m
s0-90 = 450 + 900 = 1350 m
vavg(0-90) = total distance / time
= 1350 / 90
= 15 m/s

DEW

Example #3
A motorcycle starts from rest and travels on a straight road with a constant
acceleration of 5 m/s2 for 8 sec, after which it maintains a constant speed for 2
sec. Finally it decelerates at 7 m/s2 until it stops. Plot a-t, v-t diagrams for the
entire motion.Determine the total distance travelled.

Sketch a-t diagram from the known accelerations, thus

a-t Diagram

Since dv=adt, the v-t diagram is determined by integrating


the straight line segments of a-t diagram. Using the initial
condition t=0, v=0 for segment I, we have

When t =8 s, v =58= 40m/s. Using this as the initial condition


for segment II, thus

How can you determine t?

Example #4
A test projectile is fired horizontally into a viscous liquid with a velocity
v0.The retarding force is proportional to the square of the velocity, so
that the acceleration becomes a=-kv2. Derive expressions for distance
D travelling in the liquid and the corresponding time t required to reduce
the velocity to v0/2.Neglect any vertical motion.
Note the acceleration a is non-constant.
