  • Everyone loves graphs! Especially when they give us so much information about the motion of an object. Position, velocity, and acceleration can be plotted against time, and these curves all relate to one another in interesting ways. Let's familiarize ourselves with the way these look, and how to analyze them.

    One mistake though, but first: Good video, with excellent motivation, and discussion of real deviations from the ideal. I often use your videos when I am not in front of someone and cannot draw something myself to explain it, or otherwise have to do some education remotely with someone. For example right now I'm using this video to help motivate someone to study graphs in Algebra, since they have an interest in Physics.
    I would highlight one mistake here Professor Dave, when you are drawing out the initial graphs, the vertical axis label for the velocity graph is in "m/s" (meters per second) but what you are graphing is actually meters per minute. Many people might think this is trivial but you yourself no doubt know, that when a student is first learning, any such error, in a textbook or lecture, or nowadays video demonstration, can really cost the student a lot of time, and or potential sanity -- because it is already difficult enough when you are trying to learn something new and challenging and you might get something wrong, so you assume that the material you are learning from is accurate. I'm not sure if you have the capability to go back and edit the video and change that part of the graph, but if not then you might want to add a subtitle or some such at that point.

    • @ProfessorDaveExplains
      @ProfessorDaveExplains  5 років тому +3

      yes technically since there is no change in velocity, except for the spots where it jumps, which would generate infinities, so that's why the velocity graph is not realistic as shown that way

  • @angelbasmayor9248
    @angelbasmayor9248 4 роки тому +2

    Is there a way to know if an object is accelerating or decelerating without curves in the graph on a Velocity-Time Graph? All the lines in the graph my teacher provided are straight and there were only pointy edges, but there were questions about acceleration and deceleration. Maybe it's a trick question, but I just wanted to know what you think.

    • @ProfessorDaveExplains
      @ProfessorDaveExplains  4 роки тому +4

      Well if you're looking at velocity, then any non-zero slope implies acceleration. Only if velocity is constant can there be no acceleration. If looking at a position graph then you do need to see curvature to infer acceleration.

    I have a question professor, your velocity quantity is m/s; but your position quantity is m/min. I guess you should divide the distance in 60. I think that I'm wrong not you, but although I wanted to say that.

    • @carultch
      @carultch 2 роки тому

      Think about it in terms of multiplying by 1 in a fancy way. Given 120 meters/minute, you multiply by 1 to convert the units. Multiply 120 meters/min * (1 minute / 60 seconds), which gives us 2 meters/second. The ratio of 1 minute/60 seconds is equal to 1, because it is two equal terms divided by each other. You can multiply by any form of the number 1, because multiplying by 1 doesn't change it.

    @BrianBors 2 роки тому

    You can go further! Position goes to Velocity. Velocity goes to Acceleration. But you can also analyse the changes in Acceleration and then you get to something that psychics calls "Jerk". And it doesn't stop there. Go further and you get to "Snap" then "Crackle" and then "Pop". Yes these are named after the Rice Krispies mascots. No I am not making this up.
    After watching this lesson I wondered if anybody else thought of analysing Acceleration to get another graph. And of course somebody else already thought of that. That led me into a rabbit hole that thought me these terms.

    • @carultch
      @carultch 2 роки тому +1

      You assign a coordinate system arbitrarily, in whatever manner is convenient for the problem you are solving. You make the choice however you see fit, such that one direction is assigned positive, and the opposite direction is assigned negative. Sometimes a problem statement will specify the sign convention/coordinate system for you, in which case you follow what the problem statement specifies (so it is easier to grade). A common convention is to assign East as +x, North as +y, and Up as +z. The opposites would correspondingly be assigned negative.
      Distance and speed specifically, are scalars, and the answer is always positive if the problem statement asks for these terms. If the term "total distance travelled" is used, then this means you ignore the sign of velocity as you integrate it. You find the positive area under the v vs t graph, and in a separate section you find the negative area between negative velocity and the t-axis. Then, put them both in absolute value bars, and add them together.
