Section 1 Measuring Motion
Bellringer
Everybody knows what motion is, but how do you measure it?
•
•
•
One way is to measure distance, how far something goes during a motion.
Another is to measure time, how long a motion takes to occur.
A third way is to measure speed, how fast something is moving.
Each of the devices shown below can be used to measure some
aspect of motion.

Section 1 Measuring Motion
Observing Motion
• Motion is an object’s change in position relative to a
reference point.
• Displacement is the change in the position of an
object.
• Distance measures the path taken.
• Displacement is the change of an object’s position.
Displacement must always indicate direction.

Section 1 Measuring Motion
Speed and Velocity
• Speed is the distance traveled divided by the time
interval during which the motion occurred. Speed
describes how fast an object moves.
• Speed measurements involve distance and time.
• The SI units for speed are meters per second
(m/s).
• When an object covers equal distances in equal
amounts of time, it is moving at a constant speed.

Speed and Velocity, continued
• Speed can be studied with
graphs and equations.
• Speed can be determined
from a distance-time graph.
When an object’s motion is
graphed by plotting
distance on the y-axis and
time on the x-axis, the
slope of the graph is
speed.

Velocity Metal stakes are sometimes placed in glaciers
to help measure a glacier’s movement. For several
days in 1936, Alaska’s Black Rapids glacier surged
as swiftly as 89 meters per day down the valley. Find
the glacier’s velocity in m/s. Remember to include
direction.
1. List the given and the unknown values.
Given:
time, t = 1 day
displacement, d = 89 m down the valley

Section 3 Motion and Force
Bellringer
The concept of force explains many occurrences in our everyday
lives. From your own experience, state what will happen in the
following situations:
1. A marble is placed at the top of a smooth ramp. What happens to
the marble? What force causes this?
2. A marble is rolling around in the back of a small toy wagon as the
wagon is pulled along the sidewalk. When the wagon is stopped
suddenly by a rock under one of the wheels, the marble rolls
towards the front of the wagon. Why does the marble keep going
when the wagon stops? (Hint: Consider what it takes to change
the velocity of the wagon and the marble.)
3. If you dropped a flat uncrumpled sheet of notebook paper and a
similar piece of notebook paper that was crushed into a ball from
the same height, which would reach the floor first? Why are
the forces on these two pieces of paper different?

Section 3 Motion and Force
Balanced and Unbalanced Forces
• Force is an action exerted on a body in order to
change the body’s state of rest or motion. Force has
magnitude and direction.
• The net force is the combination of all forces
acting on an object.
• Objects subjected to balanced forces either do not
move or move at constant velocity.
• An unbalanced force must be present to cause any
change in an object’s state of motion or rest.

The Force of Friction
• Friction is a force that opposes motion between two
surfaces that are in contact.
• Friction opposes the applied force.

The Force of Friction, continued
• Static friction resists the initiation of sliding motion
between two surfaces that are in contact and at rest.
• Kinetic friction opposes the movement of two
surfaces that are in contact and are sliding over each
other.
• Static friction is greater than kinetic friction.
• There are many different types of kinetic friction, such
as sliding friction and rolling friction.
• Fluid friction, such as air resistance, also opposes
motion.

2. What happens to a moving object when the forces
acting on it are exactly balanced?
F. The object gradually slows and stops moving due
to friction.
G. The object moves at a constant speed, neither
speeding up nor slowing down.
H. The object accelerates because there is no
friction to oppose the forces acting on it.
I. The object accelerates because the force of
gravity is stronger than friction.

4. When describing the motion of an object, why do

To describe the motion of an object, you need to
compare the object’s position to a reference point to
determine how the position is changing.

Read the passage below. Then, answer question 6.
Some boats used in calm waters actually float on a
cushion of air. A fan blows air below the hull of the
craft, while another fan pushes air backward,
propelling the boat forward. If the downward fan is
turned off, the boat stops moving. The rear-facing
fan cannot cause the boat to move until the other fan
is turned on again.

The boat experiences less friction when it is on a
cushion of air than it does when it is in contact with
the water. The rear-facing fan provides enough force
to overcome only the lesser friction.
