Name: Date: Lesson 02.02: Changing Direction Lesson Assessment: Changing Direction Procedure 1. In a large open space, put the tennis ball in motion by rolling it into an open space, rolling it toward a wall, throwing the ball straight up in the air, and dropping the ball onto the floor. Describe the motion of the ball in each of the situations in the Observations section. 2. Repeat step one with the other object you selected. Observations Describe the motion of the tennis ball you observed in these situations. Describe any changes in direction you witnessed. Situation | Observed Motion Rolling down an open space |

Step 1
Rolling the tennis ball in an open space: The ball moves in a straight line until it slows down and stops due to friction. The direction of the ball doesn't change unless it hits an obstacle. Show more…

Figure Ex2.24 shows the motion diagram, made at two frames of film per second, of a ball rolling along a track. The track has a $3.0-\mathrm{m}-$ long sticky section. a. Use the meter stick to measure the positions of the center of the ball. Place your data in a table, similar to Table $1.1,$ showing each position and the instant of time at which it occurred. b. Make a position-versus-time graph for the ball. Because you have data only at certain instants of time, your graph should consist of dots that are not connected together. c. What is the change in the ball's position from $t=0$ s to $t=1.0 \mathrm{s} 7$ d. What is the change in the ball's position from $t=2.0 \mathrm{s}$ to $t=4.0 \mathrm{s} 7$ e. What is the ball's velocity before reaching the sticky section? f. What is the ball's velocity after passing the sticky section? g. Determine the ball's acceleration on the sticky section of the track. (FIGURE CAN'T COPY)
