Topic 1.2 Velocity
Uniform Motion
• 2 conditions
– Constant speed
– Single direction
• When both the speed and direction remain
the same, we say the velocity is constant
or uniform
Mathematically defined as …

 d
v
t
Velocity is a vector
displacement
time
interval is
a scalar
Sample Problem 1
• What is the velocity of a runner who runs 108m[S]
in 12s?
[S] is +ive
What is it in km/h?
• Is …
1=3?
• Is …
1 yd = 3 ft ?
• What about …
1 km = 1000 m ?
• What if we divide both sides by 1000 m?
What is …
6702.45 …
multiplied by …
1
6702.45 !!!!
Now remember …
Back to the problem …
• What is the velocity of a runner who runs
108m[S] in 12s?
Unit conversion ratio
Back to the problem …
• What is the velocity of a runner who runs
108m[S] in 12s?
Back to the problem …
• What is the velocity of a runner who runs
108m[S] in 12s?
[S] is +ive
Or …
• How many seconds are in an hour?
Now recall our original answer
• How many numbers do you see?
• There are actually 2!!!
• Velocity is a ratio of 2 numbers
Sample Problem 2
• An air traffic controller notices that a distant
aircraft has a velocity of 360 km/h [SW]. What
displacement will the plane experience in the 25
s period before the controller checks its position
again?

This is displacement
d  22 km
This is the distance travelled
The magnitude of the displacement is the same
as the distance travelled when motion is uniform

Sample Problem 4
• How long does it take for a car traveling at 60
km/h to travel a distance of 20 m?
Practice
1. The tip of a tuning fork moves 1.1 mm in
4.0×10-3s. What is its speed in metres per
second? (Note 1m =1000mm)
2. How long does the goalkeeper for a hockey
team have to react if a puck travelling at
25m/s is unexpectedly deflected and
changes direction without slowing down
when it is at a distance of 10m away.
3. How far does a car with it’s cruise control
set to 110km/h travel in 10 minutes?

Let’s make a position-time graph!
Also called a d-t graph
Here’s the Point!!
• Straight-line on a d-t graph means we
have uniform motion or constant
velocity (and vice versa)
Can we determine an object’s
velocity from its d-t graph?
Wait a minute …
This is the
slope formula!!!
Big idea!!
• The velocity is equal to the slope of the
line on a d-t graph

The above position-time graph could
not actually represent the motion of a
real object. Why?
This one could.
When velocity changes …

average speed.

Assignment
• Let me tell you why you're here. You're
here because you know something.
What you know you can't explain, but
you feel it. You've felt it your entire life,
that there's something wrong with the
world. You don't know what it is, but it's
there, like a splinter in your mind,
driving you mad. It is this feeling that
has brought you to me. Do you know
what I'm talking about?
Instantaneous Velocity
• This is your last chance. After
this, there is no turning back. You
take the blue pill - the story ends,
you wake up in your bed and
believe whatever you want to
believe. You take the red pill - you
stay in Wonderland and I show
you how deep the rabbit-hole
goes.
You are all laboratory babies!!!
