How To Draw A Motion Diagram

Draw a vector to represent each force. Each force arrow in the diagram is labeled to indicate the exact type of force.

Identify the object you will draw a diagram for.

How to draw a motion diagram. In general in drawing motion diagrams it is better to represent the object as simply a dot unless the actual shape of the object conveys some interesting information. Draw it in the direction the force is. To draw a motion diagram you sketch 3 to 5 consecutive frames of the position of the object.

When you draw a motion diagram do you draw out the image of the certain object moving or do you do a graph. The separation of each dot represents an elapsed time of one second. Thus a better motion diagram would be.

Identify all the forces acting directly on the object and the object exerting them. Include velocity vectors and the acceleration vector in your drawing. For example a vector diagram could be used to represent the motion of a car moving down the road.

Draw motion diagrams for a an object moving to the right at constant speed b an object moving to the right and speeding up at a constant rate c an object moving to the right and slowing down at a constant rate d an object moving to the left and speeding up at a constant rate and e an. Steps for drawing a force diagram. For example i want to draw a motion diagram for a bike rider riding at constant speed.

This video was produced to be used in both gordon state colleges phys1111 and phys2211 classes and should be. This video discusses how to draw a motion diagram using date from a velocity graph. Then you draw a second object at its next position next frame.

Vector diagrams are diagrams that depict the direction and relative magnitude of a vector quantity by a vector arrow. An example of a free body diagram is shown at the right. In a vector diagram.

For example if the object is moving to the right then the next position is to the right. Assume that the train is moving toward the right and starts to slow down at t0. Draw a motion diagram for the train.

You start by drawing the actual object at some initial position. Vector diagrams can be used to describe the velocity of a moving object during its motion. Since the purpose of the motion diagram is to help us describe the cars motion a coordinate system is necessary.

Draw a dot to represent the object of interest. It is generally customary in a free body diagram to represent the object by a box and to draw the force arrow from the center of the box outward in the direction that the force is acting.
