Average Velocity
A car travels 50 km during the first 5 hours. Then it travels 20 km in the
next hour. What is the average speed of the car?

Avg speed= total distance/total time


• A motor bike travelled for 3min with the velocity of 50m/s. Find the
distance travelled by the car.

Distance = Velocity x time


• What is the velocity at time = 8 seconds?
• calculate the average acceleration from 0-4 seconds
Uniform Acceleration
• A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly over a time of 6
seconds for a distance of 120 m. Determine the acceleration of the
car.

• vf = vi + at
Distance, S = vi t + ½ a t2
Relative velocity
• An airplane a flies to the north with a velocity of 450 m/s. An airplane
B flies to the south with a velocity of 600 m/s beside airplane A.
Calculate:

a) The relative velocity to the airplane a respect airplane B


b) The relative velocity to the airplane A respect airplane B, but now
both fly to the north
Velocity vector
• A particle starts from the origin at t=0 with an initial velocity having
an x component of 10 m/s and a y component of -12 m/s. The particle
moves in the x -y plane with an x component of acceleration only,
given by a=.
a)Determine the components of the velocity vector at any time
Vxf =
Vyf
b)Write the total velocity vector at any time
c)Calculate the velocity and speed of the particle at t = 8.0 s.
Projectile Motion
• A long-jumper leaves the ground at an angle of 30.0° above the
horizontal and at a speed of 15.0 m/s
• What is the time needed to reach the top of the jump.
• How far does he jump in the horizontal direction? (Assume his motion
is equivalent to that of a particle.)
Frictional Force
• A 68kg object is sliding to the right and encountering a friction force
that slows it down. The coefficient of friction between the object and
the surface is 0.12. Determine the following: consider

• Gravitation force
• Normal Force
• Force of friction
• A 5N force acts horizontally on a 30 N block that is initially at rest on a
horizontal surface the coefficient of static friction between the block
and the surface. What is the magnitude of the frictional force that
acts on the block?
