Vectors
•A vector has magnitude as well as direction.
•Examples: displacement, velocity, acceleration,
force, momentum
•A scalar has only magnitude
•Examples: time, mass, temperature

Subtraction of Vectors
Negative of vector has same
magnitude but points in the
opposite direction.
For subtraction, we add the negative vector.
Module 5 - 7
Multiplication by a Scalar
A vector V can be multiplied by a scalar c; the result is a
vector cV that has the same direction but a magnitude
cV. If c is negative, the resultant vector points in the
opposite direction.
Module 5 - 8
Adding Vectors by Components
Any vector can be expressed as the sum
of two other vectors, which are called its
components. Usually the other vectors are
chosen so that they are perpendicular to
each other.

3-4 Adding Vectors by Components
Adding vectors:
1. Draw a diagram; add the vectors graphically.
2. Choose x and y axes.
3. Resolve each vector into x and y components.
4. Calculate each component using sines and cosines.
5. Add the components in each direction.
6. To find the length and direction of the vector, use:

Example 2
A man pushing a mop across a floor causes it to undergo two
displacements. The first has a magnitude of 150 cm and makes a angle of 1200
with the positive x-axis. The resultant displacement has a magnitude of 140 cm
and is directed at an angle of 35.00 to the positive x axis. Find the magnitude
and direction of the second displacement.

Relative Velocity
•Will consider how observations made in different
reference frames are related to each other.
A person walks toward the front of a train at 5 km / h
(VPT). The train is moving 80 km / h with respect to the
ground (VTG). What is the person’s velocity with respect
to the ground (VPG)?

Relative Velocity
•Boat is aimed upstream
so that it will move
directly across.
•Boat is aimed directly
across, so it will land at a
point downstream.
•Can expect similar
problems with airplanes.
Module 6 - 5
Example 6 An airplane is capable of flying at 400 mi/h in still air.
At what angle should the pilot point the plane in order for it to
travel due east, if there is a wind of speed 50.0 mi/h directed due
south? What is the speed relative to the ground?

Projectile Motion
Giancoli, Sec 3-5, 6, 7
3-5 Projectile Motion
A projectile is an object
moving in two
dimensions under the
influence of Earth's
gravity; its path is a
parabola.
Module 7 - 1
Projectile Motion
•Neglect air resistance
•Consider motion only after release and before it hits
•Analyze the vertical and horizontal components separately
(Galileo)
•No acceleration in the horizontal, so velocity is constant
•Acceleration in the vertical is – 9.8 m/s2 due to gravity and
thus velocity is not constant.
•Object projected horizontally will reach the ground at the
same time as one dropped vertically
Module 7 - 2

Module 7 - 3
Initial Velocity
v y 0  v0 sin 
vx 0  v0 cos 
•If the ball returns to the y = 0 point, then the velocity at
that point will equal the initial velocity.
•At the highest point, v0 y = 0 and v = vx0
Module 7 - 4
Example 3A A football is kicked at an angle of 50.00 above the
horizontal with a velocity of 18.0 m / s. Calculate the maximum
height. Assume that the ball was kicked at ground level and lands
at ground level.

Level Horizontal Range
•Range is determined by time it takes for ball to return to
ground level or perhaps some other vertical value.
•If ball hits something a fixed distance away, then time is
determined by x motion
•If the motion is on a level field, when it hits: y = 0

•Greatest range:  = 450
•  = 300 and 600 have
same range.
(   450  150 )
Module 7 - 7
Caution– the range formula
has limited usefulness. It is
only valid when the
projectile returns to the same
vertical position.
Example 3B
A football is kicked at an angle of 50.00 above the horizontal with
a velocity of 18.0 m / s. Calculate the range. Assume that the ball
was kicked at ground level and lands at ground level.

Sec. 3-7 Projectile Motion Is Parabolic
In order to demonstrate that
projectile motion is parabolic,
the book derives y as a function
of x. When we do, we find that it
has the form:
This is the
equation for
a parabola.
