Section 2.1
Defining MotionPosition – the location of an object
A reference point and a measurement scale must be given in order to define the position of an objectMotion – an object is undergoing a continuous change in positionDescription of Motion – the time rate of change of position
A combination of length and time describes motion

Speed and VelocityIn Physical Science ’speed’ and ’velocity’ have different (distinct) meanings.Speed is a scalar quantity, with only magnitude
A car going 80 km/hVelocity is a vector, and has both magnitude & direction
A car going 80 km/h north

Frictional (Dissipative) EffectsIf frictional effects (air resistance) are neglected, every freely falling object on earth accelerates at the same rate, regardless of mass. Galileo is credited with this idea/experiment.

Astronaut David Scott demonstrated the principle on the moon, simultaneously
dropping a feather and a hammer. Each fell at the same acceleration, due to no
atmosphere & no air resistance.Section 2.3

Acceleration In Uniform Circular Motion
Although an object in uniform circular motion has a constant speed, it is constantly changing directions and therefore its velocity is constantly changing.
Since there is a change in direction there is an acceleration. What is the direction of this acceleration?It is at right angles to the velocity, and points toward the center of the circle.

Centripetal (“center-seeking”) Acceleration

Centripetal Acceleration
This equation holds true for an object moving in a circle with radius (r) and constant speed (v).From the equation we see that centripetal acceleration increases as the square of the speed.We also can see that as the radius decreases, the centripetal acceleration increases.

Projectile MotionAn object thrown horizontally combines both straight-line and vertical motion each of which act independently.
(Think of space as providing 3 independent degrees of freedom.)
Neglecting air resistance, a horizontally projected object travels in a horizontal direction with a constant velocity while falling vertically due to gravity.
