Study Notes
Motion and Speed
- Motion is the change in an object's position relative to a fixed object over time.
- Linear motion includes straight-line travel, such as trains and metros, which only move forward or backward but not up or down.
- Speed can be interpreted as the distance covered in a specific time period: Speed = Distance/Time.
- The first car that covered 10 km in 2 minutes is faster than the second car that took 5 minutes for the same distance.
Key Concepts of Speed
- Speed is based on two primary factors: distance covered and time taken.
- An object moving the least amount of time has the highest speed, while longer distances covered in the same time indicate higher speeds.
- Regular (uniform) speed is when equal distances are covered in equal intervals of time, while non-uniform speed occurs with variable distances over fixed time intervals.
Units of Measurement
- Speed is measured in km/h or m/s.
- Conversion between km/h and m/s can be calculated using the factor 5/18.
- Example: A speed of 20 m/s equals 72 km/h, while 90 km/h is equivalent to 25 m/s.
Calculating Speed and Distance
- Distance can be calculated as: Distance = Speed × Time.
- Example: A sprinter running at 6 m/s for 10 seconds covers 60 meters.
- Speed = Distance/Time can be applied to various scenarios, such as calculating speed from given distances and times.
Average Speed
- Average speed is the total distance covered divided by the total time taken.
- For example, traveling 100 km in 1 hour results in an average speed of 100 km/h.
Race Examples
- A racer taking 10 seconds for 100 meters averages 10 m/s running but only 1.25 m/s when returning, resulting in an overall average speed of 2.2 m/s for the round trip.
Relative Speed
- Relative speed is the speed of an object as perceived by an observer, which changes depending on the observer's speed and direction.
- If both the observer and the object are moving in the same direction, the relative speed is the difference between their speeds.
Electromagnetic Wave Speed
- Light travels at a constant speed of 3 × 10^8 m/s.
- Time for sunlight to reach Earth is approximately 8 minutes and 17 seconds, covering a distance of 149 million km.
Regular and Irregular Motion
- An object has a regular motion when its speed is constant, meaning the constant speed equals the average speed (V = V).
- Irregular motion occurs when the constant speed differs from average speed (V ≠V).
