1.1 Introduction

• Mechanics – the state of rest or motion of

bodies subjected to the action of forces

• Static – equilibrium of a body that is either at

rest or moves with constant velocity

• Dynamics – deals with accelerated motion of a

body

1) Kinematics – treats with geometric aspects of

the motion

2) Kinetics – analysis of the forces causing the

motion

6

1.2 Rectilinear Kinematics: Continuous Motion

• Rectilinear – straight-line path

• Kinematics – characterized by specifying, at any

given instant(t), the particle’s position(s),

velocity(v), and acceleration(a).

7

Position

1) Single coordinate axis, s

2) Origin, O is the fixed point on the path

3) Magnitude of s = distance from O to P

4) The sense of direction is defined by algebraic sign

on s :

=> +ve = right of origin, -ve = left of origin

1.2 Rectilinear Kinematics: Continuous Motion

8

Displacement – change in its position, vector quantity

If particle moves from P to P’ ,

displacement :

is +ve if particle’s position is right of its initial

position

is -ve if particle’s position is left of its initial

position

**total distance travel is a +ve scalar, sT =total

length of path over which the particle travels.

• Particle is slowing down, its speed is decreasing

=> decelerating => will be negative

• Consequently, a will also be negative, therefore it

will act to the left, in the opposite sense to v

• If velocity is constant,

acceleration is zero

The car moves in a straight line such that for a

short time its velocity is defined by :

v = (0.9t2 + 0.6t) m/s where t is in sec.

Given when t = 0, s = 0. Determine it position

and acceleration when t = 3s.

EXAMPLE 12.1

19

Solution:

Coordinate System. The position coordinate

extends from the fixed origin O to the car,

positive to the right.

Position. Since v = f(t), the car’s position can be

determined from v = ds/dt, since this equation

relates v, s and t. Noting that s = 0 when t = 0, we

22

A small projectile is forced downward into a fluid medium

with an initial velocity of 60m/s.

Due to the resistance of the fluid the projectile experiences

a deceleration equal to a =(-0.4v3)m/s2, where v is in

m/s.

Determine the projectile’s velocity and position 4s after it is

fired.

EXAMPLE 12.2

23

Solution:

Coordinate System. Since the motion is downward,

the position coordinate is downwards positive,

with the origin located at O.

Velocity. Here a = f(v), velocity is a function of

time using a = dv/dt, since this equation relates

1.3 Rectilinear Kinematics: Erratic Motion

• When particle’s motion is erratic, it is best described

graphically using a series of curves that can be generated

experimentally from computer output.

• a graph can be established describing the relationship with

any two of the variables, a, v, s, t

• using the kinematics equations

•a = dv/dt,

•v = ds/dt,

•a ds = v dv

35

Given the s-t Graph, construct the v-t Graph

•The s-t graph can be plotted if the position of the

particle can be determined experimentally during a

period of time t.

•To determine the particle’s velocity as a function of

time, the v-t Graph, use v = ds/dt

•Velocity as any instant is determined by

measuring the slope of the s-t graph

Given the v-t Graph, construct the a-t Graph

•When the particle’s v-t graph is known, the

acceleration as a function of time, the a-t graph can

be determined using a = dv/dt

1.3 Rectilinear Kinematics: Erratic Motion

39

• Since differentiation reduces a polynomial of

degree n to that of degree n-1, then if the s-t graph

is parabolic (2nd degree curve), the v-t graph will be

sloping line (1st degree curve), and the a-t graph

will be a constant or horizontal line (zero degree

curve)

1.4 General Curvilinear Motion

Curvilinear motion occurs when the particle

moves along a curved path

Position. The position of the particle,

measured from a fixed point O, is designated by

the position vector r = r(t).

61

Displacement. Suppose during a small time interval

Δt the particle moves a distance Δs along the curve

to a new position P`, defined by r` = r + Δr. The

displacement Δr represents the change in the

particle’s position.

1.4 General Curvilinear Motion

62

Velocity. During the time Δt, the average velocity

of the particle is defined as :

tavg

rv

The instantaneous velocity is determined from

this equation by letting Δt 0, and consequently

the direction of Δr approaches the tangent to the

curve at point P. Hence,

• Problems involving the motion of a projectile

have at most three unknowns since only three

independent equations can be written :

- one in the horizontal direction

- two in the vertical direction

• Velocity in the horizontal and vertical direction

are used to obtain the resultant velocity

EXAMPLE 12.11

A sack slides off the

ramp with a horizontal

velocity of 12 m/s. If the

height of the ramp is 6 m

from the floor, determine

the time needed for the

sack to strike the floor

and the range R where

the sacks begin to pile

up.
