A. Motion Problem: ◦ Is your desk moving? We need a reference point. . . ◦ nonmoving point from which motion is measured
Motion

Reference Point
A. Motion Problem: You are a passenger in a car stopped at a stop sign. Out of the corner of your eye, you notice a tree on the side of the road begin to move forward. You have mistakenly set yourself as the reference point.
Motion You can describe the direction of an object in motion with a reference direction. north, south, east, west, up, or down
Distance Displacement
Distance – the length traveled by an object Practice – What is the distance? ◦ Pattie walks 4 km North, then 3 km East ◦ Joe runs 30 m East, then runs 40 meters West ◦ Aaron jogs 4 km East, 4 km North, 4 km West, and 4 km South ◦ Answers: 7 km ; 70 meters ; 16 km
Distance vs. Displacement Distance – length Displacement – distance AND direction of a movement from the starting point
Displacement If an object moves in a single direction, the displacement equals the distance + the direction 4 km start here total displacement = 4 km North
Displacement If an object moves in two opposing directions, the displacement is the difference between the two. total distance = 4 + 3 = 7 km 4 km start here 3 km Displacement can be positive or negative. A negative direction can be either the opposite of the original movement, or can follow the sign of a typical graph [North/East vs South/West] total displacement = 4 km North + -3 km South = 1 km North (of original starting point)
Displacement – cont’d If an object moves in two directions, a triangle will be formed. If the angle is 90º , use a 2 + b 2 = c 2 to solve. 3 km 4 km start here displacem ent
Displacement – cont’d If an object moves in two directions, a triangle will be formed. If the angle is 90º , use a 2 + b 2 = c 2 to solve. 3 km displacement = 4 km 5 km 42 + 3 2 = c 2 = (16) + (9) = 25 start here c 2 = √(25) c = 5 km
Displacement – cont’d Displacement can be given in: ◦ units with direction example: x number of meters North 30 meters East + 40 meters West displacement = 10 meters West
Displacement – cont’d Displacement can be given in: ◦ positive or negative units [like on a graph] positive = North {up} or East {right} negative = South {down} or West {left} 30 meters east + 40 meters west = 30 meters + (-40) meters = -10 meters
