Intro Prob 6 given init vel, accel, `dt find final vel, dist

If initial velocity is v0, acceleration is a and time interval is `dt, then in symbols what are the final velocity vf and the displacement `ds?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

The symbol for final Vel = Vf

The symbol for displacement = delta sign s

**You would use accel. and `dt to find `dv:

a * `dt = `dv. Adding `dv to initial vel. vo you get final vel.

Then average initial vel. and final vel. to get ave. vel.:

(v0 + vf) / 2 = ave. vel.

You would then multiply ave. vel. and `dt together to get the distance.

For example if a = 3 m/s^2, `dt = 5 s and v0 = 3 m/s:

3 m/s^2 * 5 s = 15 m/s = `dv

15 m/s + 3 m/s = 18 m/s = fin. vel.

(18 m/s + 3 m/s) / 2 = 10.5 m/s = vAve

10.5 m/s * 5 s = 52.5 m = dist.

In more abbreviated form:

a * `dt = `dv

v0 + `dv = vf

(vf + v0) /2 = vAve

vAve * `dt = `ds so

`ds = (vf + v0) / 2 * `dt.

I think i was confused on the question. It read what are the symbols for final vel. and displacement. I thought you were just asking for the symbols. I didn't know i was supposed to find change in vel, ave. vel., etc.

self critique assessment: 2

The symbols given in the problem were v0, a and `dt. The solution would be expressed in the symbols of the given information.

Had you understood this I believe you would have answered the question correctly.

What is the displacement `ds associated with uniform acceleration from velocity v0 to velocity vf in clock time `dt?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

(Vf +V0)t/2

** Since accel is uniform vAve = (v0 + vf) / 2.

Thus displacement is

`ds = vAve * `dt = (v0 + vf) / 2 * `dt,

which is the first equation of uniformly accelerated motion. **

ok

** The first level in the diagram would contain `dt, v0 and vf.

Then v0 and vf would connect to `dv in the second level.

The second level would also contain vAve, connected from vf in the first level to v0 in the first level.

The third level would contain an a, connected to `dv in the second level and `dt in the first level.

The third level would also contain `ds, connected to vAve in the fourth level and `dt in the first level. **

** Student Response: I think I really confused what information stood for what in the Force and Pendulum Experiment. However, I enjoy doing the flow diagrams. They make you think in a different way than you are used to. INSTRUCTOR NOTE: These diagrams are valuable for most people. Not all--it depends on learning style--but most. **

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

I think the flow diagrams are helpful, but they are sometimes challenging for me because I don't think thats the best way for me to learn.

It might or might not be so. It's new to you; continue to use it to help you 'map out' your thinking on problems which involve complex reasoning. If you do, you'll know by the end of the course it what ways it is and is not helpful for you.
