... 1. Set up the motion sensor to graph position. When it is recording position, it acts as the origin, with all distances in front of it being positive. Before you start recording any data, sketch four position vs. time graphs that you would expect to obtain for the following situations: a) standing s ...

... Lesson 3: Newton’s Laws of Motion • Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist a change of motion Newton’s first law of motion states that an object will remain at rest or in constant straight-line motion unless unbalanced forces act on the object. • Newton’s second law of motion states that th ...

... d(~r, t) is defined as the displacement of the medium at the position ~r and at the time t. There are two ”distances” involved here. One is the position ~r in the medium. The other is d, the displacement of the medium at the position ~r. d depends on position and time. It is actually a ”field” quan ...

Chapter 1 Describing Motion
... Sometimes things move more easily at different times. For example, objects that can slide easily on ice are much harder to move on a brick floor. A heavy box of books is easier to move when it rolls on wheels. Thin pointed objects move faster through air or water than wider, fatter ones. Why do you ...
