The position, velocity, and acceleration of a particle in 3 dimensions can be expressed as:
rr = x ii + y jj + z kk
vv = vx ii + vy jj + vz kk (ii , jj , kk unit vectors )
aa = ax ii + ay jj + az kk

So for constant acceleration we can integrate to get:
aa = constvv = vv0 + a a t
rr = rr0 + vv0 t + 1/2 aa t2
(where aa, vv, vv0, rr, rr0, are all vectors)

2-D Kinematics2-D Kinematics
Most 3-D problems can be reduced to 2-D problems when acceleration is constant;Choose y axis to be along direction of acceleration.Choose x axis to be along the “other” direction of
motion.
ExampleExample: Throwing a baseball (neglecting air resistance).Acceleration is constant (gravity).Choose y axis up: ay = -g.Choose x axis along the ground in the direction of the
throw.

““x” and “y” components of motion are x” and “y” components of motion are independent !independent !
A man on a train tosses a ball straight up in the air.View this from two reference frames:

y motion: a = -g y
x motion: x = v0t

Projectile Motion.Projectile Motion.
If I set something moving near the earth, it reduces to a 2d problem we call projectile motion.
Use a coordinate system with x along the ground, y vertical with respect to the ground. (Notice no change in third direction.)
Equations of motion reduce to:X: x = voxt ax = 0
Y: y = yo + voyt – g t2 y positive upwards

Problem 1:Problem 1:
Sammy Sosa clobbers a fastball toward center-field. You are checking out your new fancy radar gun which can detect ball velocity, i.e. speed and direction. You measure that the ball comes off the bat with initial velocity is 36.5 m/s at an angle of 30o above horizontal. Since Sammy was hitting a high fastball, you estimate that he contacted the ball about one meter off of the ground. You know the dimensions of Wrigley field and the center-field wall is 371 feet (113m) from the plate and is 10 feet (3m) high. You decide to demonstrate your superfast math and physics skills by predicting whether Sammy get a home run before the play is decided.

Choose y axis up.

Choose the origin (0,0) to be at the plate.

3) For projectile motion, Equations of motion are:

Problem 1Problem 14) Solve the problem,
Numbers: y(t) = (1.0 m) + (113 m)(tan 30) -
(0.5)(9.8 m/s2)(113 m)2/(36.5 m/s cos 30)2
= (1.0 + 65.2 - 62.6) m = 3.6 mm5) Think about the answer,
The units work out correctly for a height (m)
It seems reasonable for the ball to be a little over 3m high when it gets to the fence.
Answer: since the wall is 3m high, and the ball is 3.26m high when it gets there, Sammy gets a homer.

Two footballs are thrown from the same point on a flat field. Both are thrown at an angle of 30o above the horizontal. Ball 2 has twice the initial speed of ball 1. If ball 1 is caught a distance D1 from the thrower, how far away from the thrower D2 will the receiver of ball 2 be when he catches it ?
(a) D2 = D1 (b) D2 = 2D1 (c) D2 = 4D1

Solution (Problem 3)Solution (Problem 3)
Prove that the projectile will hit the target
PROJECTILE: y-componentyP = y0 + v0y t - 1/ 2 g t2
yP = v0 sin() t - 1/ 2 g t2
TARGET: y-componentyT = y0 + v0y t - 1/ 2 g t2
yT = h - 1/ 2 g t2
tan() = h / D

But this nothing else than the condition that the projectile is aimed at the target !
yP = yT when (t) xP = D !
v0 sin() t =h
but: t = D / v0x = D / v0 cos()
so: v0 sin() / v0 cos() = h/D
if P hits T :

Which statement is true.
1. Initial speed of ball B must be greater than that of ball A.
2. Ball A is in the air for a longer time than ball B.
3. Ball B is in the air for a longer time than ball A.
4. Ball B has a greater acceleration than ball A.
5. Ball A has a greater acceleration than ball B.
Two balls, projected at different times so they don’t collide, have trajectories A and B, as shown.
