Study Notes
Units and Conversions
- The mass of a sugar grain is 5 milligrams, which equals 5 × 10⁻³ grams.
- Area conversion example: A park with an area of 12.3 km² equals 1.23 × 10⁶ m².
Types of Motion
- Full-projectile motion begins before the peak of the trajectory and consists of various motion types.
- Sarah observes projectile motion as an object is thrown upwards and then falls back due to gravity.
- Horizontal acceleration of a projectile remains constant throughout its motion.
- Vertical acceleration of a projectile remains constant at approximately -9.8 m/s² due to gravity.
Velocity Components
- The horizontal component of an object's velocity launched at 20 m/s and 30 degrees is approximately 17.32 m/s.
- The vertical velocity component after 3 seconds of an object launched with 20 m/s at 30 degrees is -19.4 m/s.
Projectile Challenges
- An object projected vertically with an initial velocity of 9 m/s reaches a final vertical velocity of -30.2 m/s after 4 seconds.
Trigonometry in Motion
- To calculate angle θ in a triangle, use the expression θ = cos⁻¹(6/10) or θ = tan⁻¹(10/6) depending on the known sides.
Vector and Scalar Quantities
- Vector quantities include forces (e.g., wind force), while scalar quantities include volume, speed, and population.
Displacement Calculations
- A hiker’s total displacement after walking 2.00 km south then east is 2.40 km with a direction of 34° east of south, calculated using cosine law.
Time to Maximum Height
- A projectile launched with an initial velocity of 40 m/s at 30 degrees takes 2 seconds to reach maximum height.
Distance and Acceleration
- A motorcycle accelerating from rest at 3.0 m/s² will travel 150 meters in 10 seconds, calculated using the formula d = ½ at².
