    Kinematic Equations and Graphs Question 1 a. a.

    The velocity-time graph for the motion is:

    The distance traveled can be found by a calculation of the area between the line on the graph and the time axis. Area = 0.5*b*h = 0.5*(25.0 s)*(25.0 m/s) Area = 313 m b. The distance traveled can be calculated using a kinematic equation. The solution is shown here. Given: vi = 25.0 m/s vf = 0.0 m/s a = -1.0 m/s2 Find: d = ??

    vf2 = vi2 + 2*a*d (0 m/s)2 = (25.0 m/s)2 + 2 * (-1.0 m/s2)*d 0.0 m2/s2 = 625.0 m2/s2 + (-2.0 m/s2)*d 0.0 m2/s2 - 625.0 m2/s2 = (-2.0 m/s2)*d (-625.0 m2/s2)/(-2.0 m/s2) =d 313 m = d b. Question 2 a. a. The velocity-time graph for the motion is:

    The distance traveled can be found by a calculation of the area between the line on the graph and the time axis. This area would be the area of the triangle plus the area of rectangle 1 plus the area of rectangle 2. Area = 0.5*btri*htri + brect1*hrect1 + brect2*hrect2 Area = 0.5*(5.0 s)*(10.0 m/s) + (5.0 s)*(25.0 m/s) + (10.0 s)*(35.0 m/s) Area = 25 m + 125 m + 350 m Area = 500 m b. The distance traveled can be calculated using a kinematic equation. The solution is shown here. First find the d for the first 5 seconds: Given: vi = 25.0 m/s t = 5.0 s a = 2.0 m/s2 Find: d = ??

    d = vi*t + 0.5*a*t2 d = (25.0 m/s)*(5.0 s) + 0.5*(2.0 m/s2)*(5.0 s)2 d = 125 m + 25.0 m d = 150 m Now find the d for the last 10 seconds: Given: vi = 35.0 m/s t = 10.0 s a = 0.0 m/s2 Find: d = ??

    (Note: the velocity at the 5 second mark can be found from knowing that the car accelerates from 25.0 m/s at +2.0 m/s2 for 5 seconds. This

    results in a velocity change of a*t = 10 m/s, and thus a velocity of 35.0 m/s.) d = vi*t + 0.5*a*t2 d = (35.0 m/s)*(10.0 s) + 0.5*(0.0 m/s2)*(10.0 s)2 d = 350 m + 0 m d =350 m The total distance for the 15 seconds of motion is the sum of these two distance calculations (150 m + 350 m): distance = 500 m c. d. e. f. Question 3 a. a. The velocity-time graph for the motion is: Return to Question 2

    b. The time to rise up and fall back down to the original height is twice the time to rise up to the peak. So the solution involves finding the time to rise up to the peak and then doubling it. Given: vi = 40.0 m/s vf = 0.0 m/s a = -10.0 m/s2 Find: tup = ?? 2*tup = ??

    vf = vi + a*tup 0 m/s = 40 m/s + (-10 m/s2)*tup (10 m/s2)*tup = 40 m/s

    tup = (40 m/s)/(10 m/s2) tup = 4.0 s 2*tup = 8.0 s g. Question 4 a. a. The velocity-time graph for the motion is:

    The distance traveled can be found by a calculation of the area between the line on the graph and the time axis. This area would be the area of the rectangle plus the area of the triangle. Area = brect*hrect + 0.5*btri*htri Area = (10.0 min)*(0.50 mi/min) + 0.5*(2.0 min)*(0.50 mi/min) Area = 5 mi + 0.5 mi Area = 5.5 mi b. The distance traveled can be calculated using a kinematic equation. The solution is shown here. First find the d for the first 10 minutes: Given: vi = 0.50 mi/min t = 10.0 min a = 0.0 mi/min2 Find: d = ??

    d = vi*t + 0.5*a*t2 d = (0.50 mi/min)*(10.0 min) + 0.5*(0.0 mi/min2)*(10.0 min)2 d = 5.0 mi + 0 mi d = 5.0 mi Now find the d for the last 2 minutes:

    Given: vi = 0.50 mi/min t = 2.0 min a = -0.25 mi/min2

    Find: d = ??

    d = vi*t + 0.5*a*t2 d = (0.50 mi/min)*(2.0 min) + 0.5*(-0.25 m/s2)*(2.0 min)2 d = 1.0 mi + (-0.5 mi) d = 0.5 mi The total distance for the 12 minutes of motion is the sum of these two distance calculations (5.0 mi + 0.5 mi): distance = 5.5 mi h. Question 5 a. a. The velocity-time graph for the motion is:

    The distance traveled can be found by a calculation of the area between the line on the graph and the time axis. Area = 0.5*b*h = 0.5*(4.5 s)*(45.0 m/s) Area = 101 m

    b. Given: vi = 45.0 m/s vf = 0.0 m/s a = -10.0 m/s2 Find: d = ??

    vf2 = vi2 + 2*a*d (0 m/s)2 = (45.0 m/s)2 + 2 * (-10.0 m/s2)*d

    0.0 m2/s2 = 2025.0 m2/s2 + (-20.0 m/s2)*d 0.0 m2/s2 - 2025.0 m2/s2 = (-20.0 m/s2)*d (-2025.0 m2/s2)/(-20.0 m/s2) =d 101 m =d Since the accident pileup is less than 101 m from Vera, she will indeed hit the pileup before completely stopping (unless she veers aside). i. Question 6 a. a. The velocity-time graph for the motion is:

    The distance traveled can be found by a calculation of the area between the line on the graph and the time axis. This area would be the area of the triangle plus the area of rectangle 1 plus the area of rectangle 2. Area = 0.5*btri*htri + b1*h1 + b2*h2 Area = 0.5*(5.0 s)*(15.0 m/s) + (10.0 s)*(30.0 m/s) + (5.0 s)*(30.0 m/s) Area = 37.5 m + 300 m + 150 m Area = 488 m

    b. The distance traveled can be calculated using a kinematic equation. The solution is shown here. First find the d for the first 10 seconds: Given: Find: d = ??

    vi = 30.0 m/s

    t = 10.0 s

    a = 0.0 m/s2

    d = vi*t + 0.5*a*t2 d = (30.0 m/s)*(10.0 s) + 0.5*(0.0 m/s2)*(10.0 s)2 d = 300 m + 0 m d =300 m Now find the d for the last 5 seconds: Given: vi = 30.0 m/s t = 5.0 s d = vi*t + 0.5*a*t2 d = (30.0 m/s)*(5.0 s) + 0.5*(3.0 m/s2)*(5.0 s)2 d = 150 m + 37.5 m d = 187.5 m The total distance for the 15 seconds of motion is the sum of these two distance calculations (300 m + 187.5 m): distance = 488 m a = 3.0 m/s2 Find: d = ??
