– Distance: 1AU = ____
– Speed: average ~_______________mph
– Direction _______________________________.
• Sun _______________________________-230 Million yr

• Galaxies moving relative to each other.
– ________________________________________________
.
Acceleration
• Acceleration – any change in velocity
– ___________________________________
– __________________________________
•
In everyday English, slowing down is called
“________” but physicists use “accelerating” to
mean _________________________________.
• Give some examples of things that are
“accelerating” in the physics sense.
Velocity vs. acceleration
• Identify the following as velocity (arm points
right) or acceleration (arm points left)
– Going 55 mph
– Using the gas pedal on your car
– Rolling in a straight line
– Using the brakes on your car
– Using the steering wheel on your car
– Running 10 meters per second
– Things falling due to gravity.
– Things thrown upwards on their way up to the top
Which does the human body
feel?
1. Velocity
2. Acceleration

Acceleration changing an object’s speed
• Ramp demo
• Imagine something accelerates at a constant
rate of 2 miles/hr per second of motion. It starts
at rest. Work with your neighbor.

Initially, its speed is _____________
After 1 second, its speed is ____________
After 2 second, its speed is ____________
After 3 second, its speed is ____________
After 10 secs, its speed is ____________
After 2000 secs, its speed is ____________
Write a rule for the speed after “T” seconds.
After you write your rule, notice the textbook gives an
equation on page 47.
A super-fast car and truck start at the same place. The car goes
100 m/s (220 miles/hr) always. The truck starts at rest and
accelerates 1 m/s per HOUR. Will the truck ever catch the car?

Calif. Science Standards for motion
•
From California Science Standards, grade 2:
–
•
Students know the way to change how
something is moving is by giving it a push
or a pull. The size of the change is related to
the strength, or the amount of force, of the
push or pull.
And from grade 8:
–
–
Students know the velocity of an object must be
described by specifying both the direction and
the speed of the object.
Students know changes in velocity may be due
to changes in speed, direction, or both.
Gravity near ground
• Free fall
– Toss something up, what happens on way up?
– Drop something, what happens on way down?
• When things fall, measure ________________ for:
– _______________
– _______________
– _______________________________________of falling.
• Paper/pen experiment
• _____________________________________for ___
__________________________________________
– *Unless there are __________, such as _____________
– Then we’re dealing with NET force, not gravity’s force.
• Galileo observed this (in Pisa). Galileo’s observations
helped Newton formulate ideas.
From Apollo 15 mission
Men on the Moon
• Show the hammer-feather movie
• Search internet for this if you want to see it
at home.
Gravitational acceleration
• g = 10 m/s per second or 22 mph per sec
• Drop something from rest. How fast will it be
moving after:
– 1 sec
– 2 sec
– 10 sec
– T sec
_______________
_______________
_______________
_______________*
• *After writing your rule, compare yours to the book’s
version on p. 48
– 10 m/s2 (on Earth’s surface) is abbreviated “g”**
• **More precisely it’s 9.8 m/s2.
Free fall questions
• What happens to an object if you drop it at
rest?
– How quickly?
• If you toss something straight upwards
– What happens on the upwards part of motion?
• How quickly?
– What happens on the downward part?
• How quickly?

How fast is something moving at the top of
the motion after being thrown upwards? The
answer depends on:
1. Nothing – it is moving w/ speed=zero
2. how fast it was thrown
3. How long you wait
4. how fast thrown & how long you wait

You have two spheres of equal size and smoothness, and you can
ignore air resistance. One is heavy, the other much lighter. You hold one
in each hand at the same height above the ground. You release them at
the same time. What will happen?
1. The heavier one will hit the ground first.
2. They will hit the ground at the same time.
3. The lighter one will hit the ground first.
