Kinematics in One Dimension
Name: Sabina Veysalova
Section #: 01
Procedure
The smart cart will always start from a position of zero when you begin a data run. The
+x direction is marked on top of the cart. Pay attention to which direction you push it!
When asked to make predictions, know that you will not be penalized if your predictions are
wrong, so do not change your predictions after you do the experiment.
In the real world,
predictions turn out wrong all the time!
Situation 1: Level Ground
Prediction
You are riding your bike on a flat stretch of highway. After you get going, you stop pedaling and
coast (essentially friction free) at constant velocity.
In reality, there will be air resistance and
some amount of friction but not enough to immediately slow you down.
Thus, you are to
neglect friction and air resistance for your prediction.
Note the positive x-direction in the figure
below. Answer the questions below for only the time during which you are
coasting
.
Will your acceleration be positive, negative
or zero? ________________
Sketch how you think your position,
velocity, and acceleration graphs should
look if you are coasting at a constant
velocity.
Again, ignore friction and air
resistance.

Give the cart a quick push
in the +x direction
so that it mimics a bicycle coasting at constant
speed. Please catch the cart as it reaches the end of the track!
Friction will slow your cart down a bit, but if the velocity is fairly constant, you have a good
graph. Also, depending on when you hit the “Start/Stop” buttons, there may be data from when
you pushed the cart.
Ignore these “pre-push” and “post-stop” sections of the data
(you can
hide/delete them as described in the “Instructions” or just ignore them).
Compare your prediction graphs with your results.
How do they compare?

=

.
What is the “rise” unit for the slope of the position-time graph?
3
What is the “run” unit for the slope of the position-time graph?
20
What, then, is the slope’s unit?
0.150
Considering the unit for slope, what physics quantity does the slope on a position-time
graph represent?
velocity
On a position-time graph, what characterizes constant velocity motion?
constant slope
changing slope
zero slope
Velocity vs. Time Graph
What are the units associated with the slope of this graph?
seconds
What physical quantity does the slope of this graph represent?
Linear graph
On a velocity-time graph, what characterizes constant velocity motion?
positive slope
zero slope
negative slope
Acceleration vs Time Graph
For any object moving at constant velocity, what is the change in velocity?
0
Since acceleration is
a
=
Δv
Δt
, what is the value of the acceleration?
0
Does the acceleration graph agree with this?
Explain.
This acceleration graph does agree with this because the acceleration remained constant.

Situation 2: Downhill
Prediction
As you are riding your bike, you stop at the top of a large hill and start
to coast downhill, still without pedaling (so you are starting from rest).
The hill has the same “steepness” the whole way down.
Consider
downhill to be the positive x direction, as shown in the diagram.
Will your acceleration be positive, negative,
or zero? ____________
Sketch your prediction for position,
velocity, and acceleration graphs.

Experiment:
We will now let the cart fall downhill.
Angle the track as shown in the figure above:
1.
Remove one of the jack stands; this will elevate the track on one end.
2.
Make sure that the bumper is at the bottom of the track.
3.
Place the cart at the top of the track so that the +x direction is pointing
downhill
.
4.
Collect data as you release your cart from the top of the track; catch it as it reaches the
bottom of the track.
Compare your prediction graphs with your results.

What feature of the position-time graph indicates the cart started from rest? Explain.
-
the position started at zero, which indicated that the cart was not moving.
Velocity vs Time Graph:
What feature of the velocity-time graph indicates the motion was in the positive x-direction?
-
The graph has a positive slope and is moving upward in the positive direction.
Comparing this velocity graph with the constant velocity graph (from Situation 1), what
feature indicates the cart was speeding up?
-
The graph has a steeper slope indicating more rapid increase in speed.
As the cart speeds up, how does its acceleration vary in time?
-
Our acceleration always remained constant.
On a velocity-time graph, what characterizes constant acceleration motion?
constant slope
changing slope
zero slope

Drop Tower NASA operates a 2.2-second drop tower at the Glenn Research
Center in Cleveland, Ohio. At this facility, experimental packages are dropped
from the top of the tower, on the 8th floor of the building. During their 2.2 seconds
of free fall, experiments experience a microgravity environment similar to that of a
spacecraft in orbit.

RunwayContext
A small recreational plane needs to reach a certain speed to be able to take off. Your objective is to plan the length of the runway needed so that small planes can have enough space to take off.
Constraints
The speed at which the plane manages to take off is known;Planes are initially motionless when departing the runway;The acceleration produced by the aircraft engine is known;We will add 100m to the required length for safety reasons and to account for variations caused by wind;
Modelization
Models the total runway length (including the 100 m safety) as a function of the speed required to take off as well as the acceleration produced by the aircraft engine.
Then test your model with the following parameters:
take-off speed: 83 km/ℎ;
acceleration produced by the motor: 0.97 m/s^2;

When a high-speed passenger train traveling at vp = 152 km/h rounds a bend, the engineer is shocked to see that a locomotive has improperly entered onto the track
from a siding and is a distance D = 670 m ahead (see the figure). The locomotive is moving at v = 32 km/h. The engineer of the passenger train immediately applies the
brakes. Assume that an x axis extends in the direction of motion. What must be the constant acceleration along that axis if a collision is to be just avoided?
