ACCELERATED
MOTION
DEFINITION
It is a motion of an object
where the acceleration is
constant.
 REVIEW

ACCELERATION
It is the rate of change of
velocity of an object with
respect to time.
 REVIEW

VELOCITY
It is the rate at which the
position changes.

Displacement - It is the shortest distance from

the initial to the final position of a point.


 SAMPLE PROBLEM #1
From rest, a car accelerated
at 8 m/s2 for 10 seconds. (a)
What is the position of the
car at the end of the 10
seconds? (b) What is the
velocity of the car at the
end of the 10 seconds?
 SAMPLE PROBLEM #2
With an initial velocity of 20
km/h, a car accelerated at 8
m/s2 for 10 seconds. (a) What is
the position of the car at the
end of the 10 seconds? (b)
What is the velocity of the car
at the end of the 10 seconds?
?
Try
A car accelerates uniformly
from 0 to 20 m/s in 11.5
seconds.

a) What is the acceleration of

the car in m/s2?
b) What is the position of the
car by the time it reaches
the velocity of 20 m/s?
I. Identification
Which of the following statements are about
uniformly accelerated motion? Select two answers.
a. If an object's acceleration is constant, then it must
move in a straightline.
b. If an object's acceleration is zero, then it's velocity
must remain constant.
c. If an object's velocity remains constant, then its
acceleration must be zero.
d. If the object's direction of motion is changing then
its acceleration is not zero.

III. Problem Solving

On a certain stretch of track, trains
run at 96.56 kph. How far back of a
stopped train should be a warning
torpedo be placed to signal an
oncoming train? Assume that the
brakes are applied at once and
retard the train at the uniform rate
of 0.61 m/s2.
ASSIGNMENT
Give at least 3 examples
of objects in uniformly
accelerated motion.
