EXAMPLE: THROW ROCK UP
Then v = v0 -gt
Choose upward to be positive displacement and speed.(This choice is arbitrary)
Let v0 = 5m/s and g = 10m/s2
When does the rock get to the top of its motion?
v = 0 = 5 – 10t so 5 = 10t and t = 0.5s
How high did it go?
y = v0t – 1/2gt2 = 5(0.5) – 5(0.5)2 = 2.5 – 1.25 = 1.25m

A. + 10 m/s2
B. + 5 m/s2
C. 0 m/s2
D. - 5 m/s2
E. - 10 m/s2

SAME QUESTION USING INCLINED PLANE
Cart on track with motion sensor.
Start it initially moving upwards. This is analogous to throwing the rock up.

DROP ROCK FROM TOP OF BUILDING
Here we extend our earlier equations by adding an initial displacement
y = y0 – 1/2gt2
Let y0 = 50m.
y = 50 – 5t2
When does it hit? Answer: when y = 0
0 = 50 – 5t2 so 5t2 = 50 and t2 = 10 so t = 3.2 s

SUPERPOSITION
x = v0ty = y0 – 1/2gt2
y = y0 – [g/2v02]x2
Parabola
This is called projectile motion.

EXAMPLE
A building is 20m high.A rock is thrown off it horizontally with speed15 m/s. How far away doesthe rock land?
Time in the air:y = y0 – 1/2gt2
= 20 – 5t2 = 0t2 = 4, t = 2 seconds.
x = v0t = 15*2 = 30m

GALILEAN RELATIVITYPerson on a moving ship drops a rock. They see it fall straightdown to land at their feet.
Someone on shore sees the rock continue to move horizontallyas it falls, and says the trajectory is parabolic.
Another observer on another ship sees it move horizontally witha different speed and sees a different parabola.
They all see it land at the same time. Galileo concluded that thehorizontal motion cannot influence the vertical motion, and thatwhat takes place on the ship is independent of the ship’s motion. He argued this applies to all physical and biological processes.
The same principle applies to what takes place on a moving Earth.
