This document provides an overview of displacement, velocity, acceleration, and free fall. It defines displacement as the change in position from starting to ending point and distinguishes it from distance traveled. Velocity is defined as a quantity that measures how fast an object moves and includes both speed and direction. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time. For objects in free fall, gravity provides a constant downward acceleration of about 9.81 m/s2. Kinematic equations relate displacement, velocity, acceleration, and time for objects experiencing constant acceleration.
This presentation covers vertical motion under gravity, effect of air resistance on free fall & graphs of free fall. I hope this PPT will be helpful for instructors as well as students.
Newton's First Law of Motion: I. Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it. This we recognize as essentially Galileo's concept of inertia, and this is often termed simply the "Law of Inertia".

2. Displacement
Lets say you travel from here to Pittsburgh
Many different ways, by boat, by car, by
plane
Different methods mean different amounts of
time
3. Displacement
End point is always the same
To describe the results of your motion you need to specify
Distance from starting point
Direction of travel
Direction and distance mean
Displacement is a vector
Back to the Pittsburgh example
Displacement is the same no matter what method of travel
or how many stops, starts, or detours
4. Displacement
Displacement is the change in position
SI unit is the meter
Usually talk about displacement of objects
that move
An object at rest has zero displacement
No matter how much time passes, the object will not
move
5. Displacement
Displacement is NOT equal to distance
traveled
Think of “Something moved around, what is the
shortest distance it could have taken?”
Nascar races have zero displacement
In football
Offense hopes for positive displacement
Defense hopes for negative displacement
6. Reference Points
Coordinate systems are useful to describe
motion
Yard markers help on a football field
Squares on a chess board
A meter stick is helpful to determine
displacement
7. Reference Points
Lets say we have a ball
The ball begins at 15 cm
We refer to the starting point as xi
The ball rolls to the 45 cm mark
We refer to the ending point as xf
Displacement is found by subtraction
Final position – starting position
8. The Displacement Equation
Final position –
starting position
Recall Δ means
‘change in’
The displacement
equation is:
x x xf i
9. Direction of Displacement
Displacement may also occur in the vertical
direction
A helicopter sits on a heli-pad 30 m above the
ground, it takes off and hovers 200 m above the
ground
What is the yi? What is the yf? What is the Δy?
yi = 30 m, yf = 200 m, Δy = 170 m
10. Sign on Displacement
Displacement may be positive or negative
From our equation Δx = xf – xi we see
Δx is positive if xf > xi
Δx is negative if xf < xi
There is no such thing as a negative distance
A –Δx simply tells a direction
11. Sign on Displacement
Coordinate directions
Using ‘right’ as positive and ‘left’ as negative is
only by convention
That does not mean it is necessarily correct
As long as you remain constant throughout the
situation, you may call ‘left’ positive.
Thus making ‘right’ negative
Similarly, you may call ‘down’ positive
Thus making ‘up’ negative
12. Displacement Practice
1) xi = 10 cm, xf = 80 cm
2) xi = 3 cm, xf = 12 cm
3) xi = 80 cm, xf = 20 cm
4) xi = 28 cm, xf = 11 cm
70 cm
9 cm
-60 cm
-17 cm

13. Velocity
Quantity that measures how fast something
moves from one point to another
Different than speed, Velocity has direction
Speed is the magnitude part of the velocity vector
Velocity has direction and magnitude
14. Average Velocity
To calculate, you must know the time the
object left and arrived
Time from initial position to final position
Avg. Vel. is displacement divided by total time

15. Avg. Velocity vs Avg. Speed
Main difference
Average Velocity depends on total displacement
(direction)
Average speed depends on distance traveled in a
specific time interval
17. Acceleration
Lets say you are driving at 10 m/s
You approach a stop sign and brake carefully and
stop after 6 seconds
Your speed changed from 10 m/s to 0 m/s over
that time
Lets say you had to brake suddenly and stopped
after 2 seconds
Your speed changed from 10 m/s to 0 m/s over
that time
18. Acceleration
What was the main difference between those
two examples?
Time
A slow, gradual stop is much more comfortable than a
sudden stop
19. Average Acceleration
The quantity that describes the rate of change
of velocity in a given time interval is
acceleration

21. Constant Acceleration
As an object moves with constant a, the V
increases by the same amount each interval
There is a very specific relationship between
displacement, acceleration, velocity, and time
The relationship is used to produce a group of
very important equations

29. Free Fall
In a vacuum, with no air, objects will fall at
the same rate
Objects will cover the same displacement in the
same amount of time
Regardless of mass
We cannot demonstrate this because of air
resistance
30. Gravity
Objects in free fall are affected by what?
Gravity
A falling ball moves because of gravity
“The force of gravity”
Gravity is NOT a force!!
Gravity is an acceleration
31. Gravity as an Acceleration
Since acceleration is a vector
Gravity has magnitude and direction
Magnitude is -9.81 m/s2 or 32 ft/s2
Direction is toward the center of the Earth
Usually straight down
Gravity is denoted as g rather than a
Gravity is a special type of acceleration
Always directed down, so the sign should always be
negative
-9.81 m/s2 or -32 ft/s2
32. Path of Free Fall
If a ball is thrown up in the air and falls back
down the same path, some interesting things
happen
At the maximum height, the ball stops
As the ball changes direction, it may seem as V and a
are changing
V is constantly changing, a is constant from the
beginning
a is g throughout
33. Path of Free Fall
At ymax
What is the velocity?
0 m/s
What is the acceleration?
g or -9.81 m/s2
34. Free Fall
It may be tough to think of something moving
upward and having a downward acceleration
Think of a car stopping at a stop sign
When an object is thrown in the air, it has a
+Vi and –a
Since the two vectors are opposite each other, the
object is slowing down
35. Free Fall
The velocity decrease until the ball stops and
velocity is 0
It is tough to see the ‘stop’ since it is only for a
split second
Even during the stop, a = -9.81 m/s2
What happens after the ball stops at the top of
its path?
36. Free Fall
The ball begins to free fall
When the ball begins to move downward
It has a negative velocity
It has a negative acceleration
V and a now in the same direction
Ball is speeding up
This is what happens to objects in free fall
They fall faster and faster as they head toward
Earth
