Nuances of Lon-CAPA
Reporting sig figs and units is nuanced.
Lon-CAPA is not always 100% consistent.
Example:
You calculate your answer to be 590.212 cm2
The problem gives you 3 sig figs (eg, area of a
circle is 74.4 cm2)
You should report 590 cm2 (3 sig figs)
Lon-CAPA may not accept 590 cm2. But it accepts
5.90E2 cm2, 5.90E-2 m2, and 590.2 cm2 (??)
My advice: Think carefully about sig figs and try a few
different ways to report answers

What mathematical forces
govern accelerated motion?

dropped from the tower of pisa.

Coordinate Systems
We use coordinate systems as a
graphical representation of the
relationships of measurements
 Distance vs time
 Espressos sold per shift
 Cell phone minutes used per day

Position & Displacement
Displacement is a vector and thus has direction (sign)
Displacement is not equal to Distance

Instantaneous Velocity
“But officer, my
average speed was
only 25 miles per
hour...”
Sometimes we want to know the speed at one particular point in time.
MSU Physics 231 Fall 2012
16
Instantaneous Velocity
The velocity at a single point in time is
given by the slope of the line tangent to
the x-t curve at that time.
Conceptualize this condition as a
distance measurement in a very
tiny time interval

V vs T Diagram Example
The figure shows velocity versus time.
a) What is the displacement after 4 s?
b) What is the average velocity?
a) The distance covered is the area under the v-t diagram.
x= ½x2x4 + 1x4 + (2+½x1x2) = 11 m
b) Average velocity = x/t = 11m/4s = 2.75 m/s

curve at that time

What is the velocity at point C?
v = x/t = (105-85)/(3-1)
= 20/2 = 10 m/s
x
t
What is the velocity at point E?
v = x/t = (35-75)/(4.5-3.5)
= -40/1 = -40 m/s
Be careful with the sign: velocity is a vector and can be negative!

Ball Toss Problem
Dave throws a ball straight up with a velocity of 5.0 m/s.
1) How high does it go relative to the height at which it was
released?
2) After how much time does it reach that height?
x(t) = x(0) +v(0)t + ½at2
v(t) = v(0) + at
x(t) = 0 + 5t + ½(-9.8)t2
v(tmax) = 0 = 5 - 9.8tmax
tmax = 5/9.8 = 0.51 s
it decelerates
at it highest point, the velocity is zero
time to reach highest point
xmax = x(t=0.51s) = 50.51 - ½9.8(0.51) 2 = 1.3 m

t (s)
a) v(t) = v(0)+at
After 2 seconds: v(2) = 0 + 1x2 = 2 m/s
After 4 seconds: v(4) = v(2) + 2x2 = 2+4 =6 m/s
b) x(t) = x(0) + v(0)t + ½at2
After 2 seconds: x(2) = 0+0 + ½x1x22 = 2 m
After 4 seconds: x(4) = x(2) + v(2)t + ½at2 = 2 + 2x2 + ½x2x22 = 10 m

Area of triangle: ½ base x height = ½x4ux5u = 10u2
(u: unit of length in drawing above)
10u2 = 68.4cm2

1 u2 = 6.84cm2
Full square: 9x9u2 = 81u2 corresponds with 81x6.84 = 554 cm2
