WHAT IS DISTANCES? | Distance is a measurement of how far apart objects are. From one place to another is the distance of something. |
WHAT IS DISPLACEMENT? | Displacement is a measurement of the change in position of a moving body. A straight line connecting the start and end points specified in terms of length and direction. |
WHAT IS SPEED? | Speed is a measure of how fast something is moving. When an object moves faster the distance he/she is travelling is covered in a shorter amount of time. |
WHAT IS AVERAGE SPPED? | Average speed is a measure of how fast an objects moves overall Not including when the object stopped or change in speed. |
WHAT IS INSTANTANEOUS SPEED? | Instantaneous speed is the speed of an object at a particular moment. |
DOPPLER EFFECT? | As a car is driving at a high speed, the frequency (number of waves passing each second) will change greatly. That's known as doppler effect. |
DEVICES USED TO MEASURE SPEED? | 1) Fixed speed cameras 2) Light gates 3) Multi - flash photograph 4) Ticker timer |
SPEED CAMERAS? | Speed cameras measure the speed of vehicles by measuring the time a vehicle takes to travel from one sensor to another. |
LIGHT GATES? | Light gates use a sensor to trigger an electric timing mechanism when an object breaks through a light beam. |
MULTI-FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY? | Multi-flash photography - the spacing between each image represents exactly the same time. |
TICKER TIME? | Ticker time is a device that could be used to measure speed. When the timer is attached to an object moving in a straight line, dots record its motion. |
SPEEDING AND DRIVING? | When driving you must be alert and know what you are doing. You must have quick reactions when in need of immediate thinking. |
REACTION TIME? | The time it takes for someone to react to an emergency is known as their reaction time. For a person who is alert it should take about 0.15-0.30 seconds. |
REACTION DISTANCE? | While the car is still travelling you must react and think quickly in order to stop/brake in time. Usually it takes a driving 4-8 m until it actually starts braking. |
DRIVING WHILE BEING DISTRACTED? | To avoid any accident you must be alert, mentally & psychically stable and be focus. Things that distracted you are 1) Use of mobile phone 2) Other people 3) Changing the radio station |
CALCULATIONS? | 1) From Km/h to m/s must divide by 3.6 and from m/s to Km/h must multiply by 3.6 2) Average speed = Distance travelled divided by time taken |
DISTANCE-TIME GRAPH? | Distance time graph shows how far an object travels as time progresses. A line with a steep slope means the objects covers a greater distance and is moving faster. The slope is also known as gradient. A flat line on the graph shows the object has stopped. |
SPEED-TIME GRAPH? | A speed time graph shows how an object's speed changes over time. A OBJECTS SPEED MAY: 1) Be constant (flat line) 2) Increase (graph rising up) 3) Decrease (graph falling downwards) |
