Last time
Last time • Review of position, velocity from modern perspective (slides on web) • Development of medieval scientific thought: attempt to reconcile a rediscovered Aristotle with church teachings. • Medieval critiques of Aristotle’s theories of motion: idea of “impressed force” to keep an arrow moving after it has left the bow. •Possibility of “infinitite rectilinear motion” if one can remove resistance understood in 1300s.

Velocity was the rate of change of the position of an object. What's the rate of change of the velocity called?
Def: acceleration-- rate of change of the velocity of an object.
Acceleration
average acceleration a = ∆v/∆t

A: Yes, when something is going in a circle at constant speed, it is continuously changing the direction of its velocity, so a ≠ 0.
Q: Can you have a ≠ 0, v = constant?
A: Yes, e.g. when you throw a ball up and it is at the very top of its trajectory before starting back down: a=-9.8m/s2, v=0.
Q: Can you have a=0 and v ≠ 0?
A: Yes, when object has constant velocity!
Q: Can you have a ≠ 0 and v = 0 ?

v
In this course, we have referred to “uniform circular motion” where a planet moves at constant speed
From modern perspective, since it’s velocity direction is changing, it is accelerating. Greeks & medievals would not have called this acceleration.

Already know one special equation for something moving at constant velocity, ∆x = v ∆t. If we measure with respect to the origin of the coordinate system at t=0 (choose xi=0 and ti=0), then we just write x = v t. What about if acceleration is constant? This would occur if you are keeping the gas pedal depressed at a fixed angle for a few seconds, or when an object is in free fall near the Earth's surface.
Equations of motion

The same kind of reasoning as above leads to v = a t, The velocity increases at a constant rate! You might be tempted to substitute this into our x-equation, but this is wrong, because x = v t is only good for constant velocity, not changing velocity. It turns out for the special case of constant a, we get
v =a t x = ½ a t2
Constant acceleration a
constant acceleration only!

Now that India had been reached by sea, was there another route to the East?
Columbus had studied Ptolemy’s Geography and Marco Polo’s Travels Distance from Africa to China not great Read Paolo Toscanelli –
distance = 5000 miles Reduced distance to 3500 miles Began trying to persuade Portuguese in 1480s
After rejection, turned to Spain

Others became convinced that what Columbus had revealed was a new world
One who used these words was the Italian geographer Amerigo Vespucci Inspired by the voyages of Columbus, he visited the Gulf and the eastern coast of the U.S. in a voyage of 1497
Other voyages to the east coast of South America convinced him that this territory represented a new continent
