- Absences On those days when you will be absent,
find a friend or an acquaintance to take notes
for you or visit the web page. Do not call or
send an e-mail the instructor and ask what went
on in class, and what the homework assignment is. - Homework assignments Homework problems will be
assigned on a regular basis. Problems will be
solved using the Problem-Solving Technique on any
white paper with no more than one problem written
on one sheet of paper. Homework will be
collected when due, with your name written
legibly on the front of the title page. It is
graded on a 0 to 100 points scale. Late homework
(any reason) will not be accepted.

9Introduction and Basic Concepts
"Lo peor es educar por métodos basados en el
temor, la fuerza, la autoridad, porque se
destruye la sinceridad y la confianza, y sólo se
consigue una falsa sumisión Einstein Albert
- Topic 1 Kinematics of a Particle
10Chapter Objectives
- To introduce the concepts of position,
displacement, velocity, and acceleration. - To study particle motion along a straight line
and represent this motion graphically. - To investigate particle motion along a curve path
using different coordinate systems. - To present an analysis of dependent motion of two
particles. - To examine the principles of relative motion of
two particles using translating axes.
1112.1 Introduction. What is dynamics ???
- Study the accelerated motion of a body
1212.1 Introduction. What may happen if dynamics
is not applied properly ???

c. Velocity If the particle moves through a
displacement ?s during the time interval ?t, the
average velocity of the particle during this time
interval is If we take smaller and smaller
values of , the magnitude of becomes smaller and
smaller. The instantaneous velocity is a vector
defined as
The velocity can be positive () or negative
(-). The magnitude of the velocity is called
speed, and it is generally expressed in units of
m/s or ft/s.
1512.2 Rectilinear Kinematics Continuous Motion
d. Acceleration Provided the velocity of the
particle is known at two points, the average
acceleration of the particle during the time
interval ?t, is defined as The ?v v - v
represents the difference in the velocity during
the time interval ?t The instantaneous
acceleration is a vector defined as
The acceleration can be either positive () or
negative (-). The magnitude of the acceleration
is generally expressed in units of m/s2 or ft/s2.
