Vectors Verses Scalar
• Scalar quantities:
– involve only magnitude (amount)
E.g.) Speed = 20 m/s
• Vector quantities:
– involve both magnitude and direction
– Are drawn using arrows
E.g.) Displacement = 20 m [N]
Velocity = 20 m/s [N]
Distance Verses Displacement
• Distance (d)
– is how far an object travels
– It is a scalar quantity (magnitude)
• Displacement (d)
– Is change in both distance and direction
– It is a vector quantity (magnitude and
direction)
Speed verses Velocity
•Speed (v):
•is the rate of an objects motion
•It is a scalar quantity
•The formula is:
v= d
t
v = speed
d = distance (dfinal – dinitial)
t = time
• Velocity (v )
• Describes the rate of motion and the
direction of the object’s motion
• It is a vector quantity
• the formula is:
vave = d
t
vave = dfinal – dinitial
tfinal - tinitial
• when describing a vector, we have two
quantities that indicate the direction:
-Degrees from the x or y axis
-Degrees using compass directions

Solution
Dan is driving down the highway and comes up behind
a logging truck traveling 22 m/s. He hits the brakes,

-2.5 m/s2 = (22 m/s – x)
5.0 s
(-2.5 m/s2)(5.0 s) = 22 m/s - x
-12.5 m/s = 22 m/s - x

Acceleration Due to Gravity
• Is 9.8 m/s2… (applies to all objects)
• It is greater near sea level
• It is less on the top of a
mountain
• Larger masses have more
• There is always drag/air resistance…
ignore it
When Doing Calculations:
• if an object is falling:
a = 9.81 m/s2
• if an object is going up:
a = 9.81 m/s2
Example 1
How fast are you falling after 2.5 s of free fall.
Remember a = 9.81 m/s2
vi = 0 m/s
a = 9.81 m/s2
t = 2.5 s
vf = ?
vf = vi + at
vf = 0 m/s + (9.81 m/s2)(2.5 s)
vf = 24.525 m/s
vf = 25 m/s
Calculating average speed/velocity for
constant acceleration
vave = vi + vf

vave= average speed
vi = initial speed
vf= final speed

enters the Kicking Horse traveling at 35 m/s.
When it reaches the top of the pass 65 minutes
later it has slowed down to 15 m/s. What is the

Work and Energy
Force
• Is any push or pull on an object
• It is measured in Newtons (N)
• Objects remain at rest unless unbalanced
forces act upon it
Balanced & Unbalanced Forces
• Balanced force:
– forces are the same size
but in the opposite direction
– cancel each other out.
• Unbalanced force
– Forces are in the opposite
direction
– one force is larger than the
other
• Deceleration (slowing down)
• the force is in the opposite
direction of the movement
• energy is transferred from the
source of the force to the object that
the force is acting upon
• Accelerating (speeding up)
• the force is in the same
direction as the moving
object
To Change the Motion of Objects
• A force is needed
F = ma
F = force (Kg • m/s2) or 1 Newton (N)
m = mass (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s2)
• Note: weight is the force due to gravity ( 9.81 m/s2)

Work
• Occurs when a person lifts a weight, shovels
snow or pushes a car
• Occurs when a force acts through a distance
• Work input (energy input) = the work done
on the object
• work output (energy output) = the result
of this work done on the object
• in the absence of any outside forces, such
as friction
• WORK INPUT = WORK OUTPUT
• For work to be done on an object…….
THREE CONDITIONS must apply

energy is lost as heat
• Occurs because of the friction between
moving parts
