Chapter 2 Describing motion > Understanding speed speed: the distance travelled by an object in unt time velocity: speed in a given direction measured in n/s eeu cael ae There are three mistakes that you can make In calculations: ‘© rearranging the equation incorrectly © Incorrect oF missing unit conversion © missing or incorrect units. Practise rearranging equations until you are really happy with It. To test that you are doing it ight, pick a calculation whare you know all the quantities. For example, inthis chapter, we might say 7 r/s would mean 35 metres travelled in 5 seconds. Now rearrange the equation for speed, to make distance, then time, the subject. In each case, having rearranged the equation, substitute the numbers, Into the equation. if you've done the rearrangement correctly, both sides of the equation should stil be equal! Exercise 2.1 een recall how to measure and calculate the speed of a moving object. Focus 1 One way to find the speed of an object Is to measure the time It takes to travel a measured distance. The table shows the three {uantitles Involved.

As a vehicle passes over the frst detector, an electronic timer starts. As It passes over the second detector, the timer stops. {2 Explain how the vehicle's speed can then be calculated. b On one stretch of road, any vehicle travelling faster than 25 m/s is breaking the speed limit.

Remember that that the distance travelled from source to object and back Is ‘TWICE the distance to the object. Another way to look at this is that the time for the Waves to travel from the source to the abject and back is twice the time to the object.Exercise 2.3 INTHI re practice rearranging the equation for speed, Focus 1a Acris moving at 22 m/s.
