Motion in two and three dimensions, in particular the look at Projectile motion in both the horizontal and vertical direction, uniform circular motion as well as relative motion
A special case where the particle moves in a vertical plane and accelerates due to gravity. The Horizontal and vertical parts are independent of each other. The horizontal velocity is constant throughout the motion. While the vertical component is under constant downward acceleration due to gravity.
The Horizontal Motion Because there is no acceleration in the horizontal direction, the horizontal component vx of the projectiles velocity remains unchanged from its initial value throughout the motion. At any time t, the projectiles horizontal displacement x-x0 is given by
Because v0x =v0cos this becomes
Vertical Motion Acceleration is constant in a downward direction
When the projectile reaches its maximum height the vertical velocity will be zero.
The trajectory of a particle in motion is parabolic and is given by
Uniform Circular Motion
If a particle travels along a circle or circular arc of radius r at constant speed v, it is said to be in uniform circular motion and has an acceleration a of constant magnitude
The direction of the acceleration is towards the center of the circle and is said to be centripetal. The time for the particle to complete the circle is
T is called the period of revolution, or simply the period of the motion.
Relative Motion
When two frames of reference A and B are moving relative to each other at a constant velocity, the velocity of a particle P as measured by an observer in frame A usually differs from that measured from frame B. the two measured velocities re relative by
Where vBA is the velocity of B with respect to A. Both observers measure the same acceleration for the particle:
The Horizontal Range
The horizontal range R of the projectile is the horizontal distance traveled by a projectile when the it returns to its initial height. To find R, put x x0 = R and y - y0 = 0
