Concept explainers
Each person in your group should obtain a ruler and at least one ticker tape segment from the staff. All the tape segments were generated using the same ticker timer. Do not write on or fold the tapes. If a ticker timer is available, examine it so that you are familiar with how it works.
A motion that generates a sequence of evenly-spaced dots on a licker tape is called motion with constant speed. Explain the assumption about the motion that is being made when this phrase, is applied.
Discuss with your partners whether the object that generated your tape was moving with constant velocity.

- In the figure below is shown a picture of a string at a time t1. The pieces of the string are each moving with velocities which are indicated by arrows in the picture. (The vertical displacements are small and don't show up in the picture.)Below are shown five graphs which could give the shape of the string at the instant for which the velocities are displayed above. (Note: the vertical scale magnifies the displacement by a factor of 100.)For each of the cases A - E choose whether the string that has that position graph and the velocity pattern at the top is moving as a: (L) left-traveling wave (R) right traveling wave (S+) a standing wave increasing in amplitude (S-) a standing wave decreasing in amplitude (N) none of the above.1. For graph A: ---Select--- L R S+ S- N2. For graph B: ---Select--- L R S+ S- N3. For graph C: ---Select--- L R S+ S- N4. For graph D: ---Select--- L R S+ S- N5. For graph E: ---Select--- L R S+ S- Narrow_forwardBriefly describe how this graph satisfies the 2nd Law of Motion.arrow_forwardIn what reasonable ways can you represent or describe the motion of a car traveling from one stoplight to the next?

- Can you please explain a bit more of whats happening in step 2?arrow_forwardThe figure below shows three motion diagrams, where the dots indicate the positions of a ball after equal time intervals. All balls are moving from left to right. Describe the motion of each ball. Use evidence to support your description.arrow_forwardexplain each step brieflyarrow_forward
- Mr. H is preparing to show the class a Strobe demonstration when he realizes that his absent-mindedness has struck once more. He left the strobe on the counter in the back of the lab after the last class period. Starting 1.0 meter from the front of the room, Mr. H walks quickly to the back of the lab, picks up the strobe and returns to the middle of the classroom. The position-time graph below represents his motion. Use the graph to answer the next several questions. a. What is the total distance walked by Mr. H during these 8.0 seconds?b. What is the average speed of Mr. H during these 8.0 seconds?c. What is the average velocity of Mr. H during these 8.0 seconds?d. How fast did Mr. H walk during the first 5.0 seconds?e. How fast did Mr. H walk during the last 3.0 seconds?arrow_forwardplease explain me step by step please and clear handwriiting pleasearrow_forward6) PLEASEBE CLEAR WITH EACH STEP AND YOUR HAND WRITTING AS WELL. IF POSSIBLE USE (TEXT) KEYBOARD TO ANSWER THE QUESTION IF NOT BE CLEAR WITH YOUR WRITING. BELOW IS THE FORMAT IN WHICH THE PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE SOLVE SO IS EASIER TO UNDERSTAND.
