will he fall?
PHYSICS

Objectives:
1) We will apply the kinematic equations to
solve motion problems.
Kinematic Equations
 A set of 4 equations that relate x, v, a and t
for motion where acceleration is constant

1
𝑥 = (𝑣𝑖 + 𝑣𝑓 ) ∙ 𝑡 𝑣𝑓 = 𝑣𝑖 + 𝑎 ∙ 𝑡
2
1
𝑥𝑓 = 𝑥𝑖 + 𝑣𝑖 ∙ 𝑡 + ∙ 𝑎 ∙ 𝑡 2 𝑣𝑓 2 = 𝑣𝑖 2 + 2 ∙ 𝑎 ∙ ∆𝑥
2
Kinematic Equation #1 and #2

1
𝑥 = (𝑣𝑖 + 𝑣𝑓 ) ∙ 𝑡 𝑣𝑓 = 𝑣𝑖 + 𝑎 ∙ 𝑡
2

 x  displacement (m)
 vf  final velocity (m/s)
 vi  initial velocity (m/s)
 a  acceleration (m/s2)
 t  time (s)
Kinematic Equation #3 & #4

1
𝑥 = 𝑥𝑖 + 𝑣𝑖 ∙ 𝑡 + ∙ 𝑎 ∙ 𝑡 2 𝑣𝑓 2 = 𝑣𝑖 2 + 2 ∙ 𝑎 ∙ ∆𝑥
2

 x  displacement (m)
 vf  final velocity (m/s)
 vi  initial velocity (m/s)
 a  acceleration (m/s2)
 t  time (s)
Acceleration and Velocity
 v & a in same direction  Object speeding up
-v
-a

 v & a in opposite directions  Object slowing down


+v
-a
In Your Groups…
 Draw arrows and indicate signs for v and a:
1) Object moving to right and slowing down
+v -a
2) Object is speeding up while moving to left
-a -v
3) Object is moving to left and slowing down
+a -v
4) Object moving to right while speeding up
+v +a
