Rectilinear Kinematics: Erratic Motion: Prepared By: Engr. Jordan Ronquillo

The coefficient of friction between tires and road is 0.7. Given: Speed = v = 90 kph = 25 m/s Radius of curve = R = 200 m Side thrust = F = mv^2/R No side thrust means F = 0 0 = mv^2/R 0 = (m)(25^2)/200 0 = 625m/200 m = 8° The angle of super elevation should be 8°.

Rectilinear Kinematics:

Erratic Motion
Prepared by:
Engr. Jordan Ronquillo
Rectilinear Kinematics:
Erratic Motion
 When a particle has erratic or changing motion
then its position, velocity, and acceleration
cannot be described by a single continuous
mathematical function along the entire path.
 For this reason, it is convenient to represent the
motion as a graph.
 A graph of the motion that relates any two of the
variables s, v, a, t can be drawn.

 The s-t, v-t, and a-t Graphs.
 To construct the v-t graph given the s-t graph, the
equation v = ds/dt should be used, since it
relates the variables s and t to v. This equation
states that;

 The a-t graph can be constructed from the v-t
graph in a similar manner,

 Since differentiation reduces a polynomial of
degree n to that of degree n - 1, then if the s-t
graph is parabolic (a second-degree curve), the v-t
graph will be a sloping line (a first-degree curve),
and the a-t graph will be a constant or a horizontal
line (a zero-degree curve).

 If the a-t graph is given, the v-t graph may be
constructed by using a = dv/dt, written as

Curvilinear Motion:
Projectile
 Anyone who has observed a baseball in motion
has observed projectile motion. The ball moves
in a curved path and returns to the ground.

 It is also assume that the projectile is moving


without rotation in a vacuum. Such factor as
wind velocity, air resistance, and rotation of the
earth.

Curvilinear Motion:
Projectile
 In a projectile motion, the horizontal and the
vertical motion are independent of each other.

 This allows to break up a problem involving two


dimensional motion.

 Horizontal (zero acceleration)


 Vertical (constant downward acceleration)

shell where it explodes, relative to its firing point?

at an angle of 30° to the horizontal with an initial
speed of 20.0 m/s. The height from which the stone
is thrown is 45 m above the ground.

ground?

the initial velocity VA and the inclination angle
𝜃A at which it was thrown. Also, find the
magnitude of the ball's velocity when it strikes
the ground.

at an angle of 60°. A second projectile is then
fired with the same speed 0.5 s later. Determine
the angle 𝜃 of the second projectile so that the
two projectiles collide. At what position (x, y) will
this happen?
5. Determine the angle of the super elevation for a
200 m highway curve so that there will be no side
thrust at a speed of 90 kph.
