When the object moves along a single axis the motion is known as one dimensional motion and such a motion is along a straight line only, which may be horizontal, vertical or slanted. In this chapter, we will learn about motion using the concepts of velocity and acceleration along with the basic physics of one dimensional motion. Frame of reference A system of coordinate axes which defines the position of a particle or an event in two or three dimensional space is called a frame of reference. The simplest frame of reference is of course the familiar cartesian system of coordinates, in which the position of the particle is specified by its three coordinates x, y and z, y Ply. Fig. 3.1. Frame of reference for position ofa particle P Ina simple word, a frame of reference is the frame in which an observer sits and make observations. Types of frame of reference Frame of references are of two types. (i) Inertial frame of reference A non-accelerating frame of reference is called an inertial frame of reference. A frame of reference which is either at rest or moving with a constant velocity is an inertial frame of reference. (ii) Non-inertial frame of reference An accelerating frame of reference is called a non-inertial frame of reference. If observer is sit in accelerated moving frame, then frame is called a non-inertial frame of reference. . 1) Rest and motion If the position of an object does not change w.r.t its surrounding with the passage of time, itis said to be at rest. ¢.g., Book lying on the table, a person sitting on a chair etc. And if the position of an object is continuously changing w.r.t. its surrounding, then it is said to be in the state of motion. e.g., The walking man, crawling insects, water Flowing down a dam’ etc. Rest and motion are relative terms Rest and motion are always relative but never absolute. It means an object, can be at rest for an observer but the same object can be in motion when observed by other observer. e.g. a person sitting in his house is at rest w.r.. arth but is in motion w.r.t. moon. Classification of motion On the basis of the number of coordinates required to specify of the object, motion of object can be classified as One dimensional motion ‘The motion of an object is considered as one dimensional, if only one coordinate is needed to specify the position of the object. xo Fig. 3.2 One dimensional motion In one dimensional motion, the object moves along a straight line. e.g., A boy running on a straight line, motion of freely falling body etc. Two dimensional motion The motion of an object is considered as two dimensional, if two coordinates are needed to specify the position of the object. y Max») x Fig. 3.3 Two dimensional motion In two dimensional motion, the object moves in a plane. eg., A satellite revolving around the earth, motion of billiard ball, etc. Three dimensional motion The motion of an object is considered as three dimensional if all the three coordinates are needed to specify the position of the object. 44 Three dimensional motion In three dimensional motion, the object moves in a space, e.g., Butterfly flying in garden, the motion of water molecules, etc. Some basic terms related to motion 1. Point object An object is considered as point object if the size of the object is much smaller than the distance, it moves in a reasonable duration of time. e.g., Earth can be considered as a point object during its revolution around sun because it covers the much larger distance than its own size. 2. Distance and displacement Distance The length of the path covered by the object in a given time-interval, is known as its distance. Distance is a scalar quantity. The unit of distance is metre in SI or MKS and centimetre in CGS. Its dimensional formula is [M°LT® ] Example 311 A scooter is moving along a straight line AB covers a distance of 360 m in 24 s and returns back from B to Cand coveres 240 m in 18 s. Find the total distance travelled by the scooter. Sol. From the above question, we draw the following figure. 240m a—t————8 eon Hence, to find out the total path distance, it does not matter what the time taken by a scooter to reach at B and the time taken to return at C. -. Total distance =AB + BC =360+240 =600m Example 3.2 A wheel completes 2000 revolutions to cover the 9.5 km distance. Find the diameter of the wheel. Sol. Given, number of revolutions n = 2000 .5 km = 9.5 x 10° m= 9500m +s Distance covered in n revolutions is equal to the circumference of the wheel. x=n-2nr => x=n-RD (2 Diameter =2% radivs 9500 = 2000 x x= D Distance 9500 > Diameter, D = 2200 _ 2000 3.14 Displacement ‘The change in position vector of an object in a particular direction is termed as displacement. In other words, displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and final position of the moving abject. If x; and x2 are the initial and final position vectors of particle respectively. Then, displacement of the particle is given by Ax =x, — x, if x2 > xy, then Ax is positives « ifx, > xp, then Ax is negative; # ifx, =x, then Axis zero. ie, the displacement of an object in motion can be positive, negative or zero while distance can never be negative or zero. Displacement is a vector quantity as it possesses both, the magnitude and direction. The unit of displacement is ‘metre in SI or MKS and centimetre in CGS. Its dimensional formula is{M°LT° ]. To understand distance and displacement clearly, let us consider the following example. ‘Suppose a person (moving body) moves from A to B (4 km) towards East and from B to C (3 km) due North as shown in figure, then the distance travelled by the person is, AB+BC =4km+3km=7km e N a a ee s Fig. 35 But the displacement of the person is AC which can be calculated by Pythagoras’ theorem AC? = AB? + BC? = (4)? +)? =164+9=25 > AC = 5km.

Acceleration The time rate of change of velocity of a body is called.

Its dimensional formula is (M°LT™?].Its direction is same as that of change in velocity (not of the velocity). There are three possible ways by which change in velocity may occur () When only direction of velocity changes, then acceleration is perpendicular to velocity. e.g., Uniform Grcular motion. (ii) When only magnitude of velocity changes, then acceleration is parallel or anti-parallel to velocity. €.g., Motion under gravity. (ii) When both magnitude and direction of velocity changes, then acceleration has two components one is perpendicular to velocity and another parallel or anti-parallel to velocity. e.g., Projectile motion. Retardation ‘When the velocity of a body increases with time, acceleration is positive and when the velocity of a body decreases with time (ie., u>v), then acceleration becomes negative. Negative acceleration is also called deceleration or retardation. Average acceleration When an object is moving with a variable acceleration, then the average acceleration of the object for the given motion is defined as the ratio of the total change in velocity of the object during motion to the total time taken. _ Total change in velocity ‘Average acceleration = Saas Total time taken Note the average acceleration can be positive or negative depending upon the sign of change of velocity. is zero ifthe change in velocity ofthe object imthe given intel of time i zr ( Chapter 03: Motion in one dimension | 95 Instantaneous acceleration object at a given instant of time or The acceleration of at a given point during the motion, is called its instantaneous acceleration.

(ili) The acceleration is created by accelerator of the vehicles and the applications of breaks give the ‘uniform deceleration to the vehicles. The acceleration produced in spring-block system is non-uniform acceleration. (iv) Instantaneous acceleration of an object (a) is equal to the first time derivative of velocity at the given instant.

Minimum distance between two bodies in motion ‘When two bodies are in motion, the questions like, the minimum distance between them or the time when one body overtakes the other can be solved easily by the principle of relative motion. In these type of problems one body is assumed to be at rest and the relative motion of the other body is considered. By assuming so two body problem is converted into one body problem and the solution becomes easy. Following example will illustrate the statement.
