Inertia

• 2 rules of inertia– 1. objects move in a straight line unless some

force is put upon them– 2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Page 3: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

The force that pulls objects to the center of the earth.

Uphill

Must increase speed because gravity works against you.

Going Up HillGravityHave to hit gas to get uphill

Page 6: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Downhill

Must decrease speed because gravity works with you.

Going Downhill

Gravity working with you; have to slow down or risk losing control

The point around which an object’s weight is evenly balanced.

Page 9: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

--The energy an object has as a result of motion.-- It is the actual force created by movement.

Page 10: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Two factors that affect energy of motion.

SPEED WEIGHT

Page 11: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

The higher the SPEED andWEIGHT the more energyof motion.

• Force between 2 surfaces that resists the movement of one surface against the other.

• Examples---– Socks on carpet versus socks on waxed floor.

Page 14: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

The friction, or grippingaction, between the roadway and tire.

Page 15: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Tread

The grooved surface of a tire that grips the roadway.

Page 16: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Factors that Affect Tire Condition

• There are 4 factors that affect tire condition and, more importantly, its ability.

• 1. Condition

• 2. Rain

• Snow/Ice

• Road Conditions—potholes, construction, etc.

Purpose

To remove water from in front of the tire.

Page 18: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Over inflation

Only center of the tire will grip the road properly.

Page 19: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Under inflation

Only the edges of the tire will grip the road properly.

Page 20: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Proper inflation

The tire grips the road evenly and causes even tread wear.

Straight line

All traction is used to slowdown or speed up the vehicle.

Page 23: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Slowing/Turning

Some traction is used to slow.

Most traction is used to turn.

Page 24: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Turning/AcceleratingMost traction is used to turn.

Some traction is used to accelerate.

Two forces that work on a vehicle in a curve.

Energy of motionTraction

Page 26: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Energy of motionThe energy of motion in your vehicle will try to make it go in a straight line.

Page 27: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Traction

If traction limit is exceeded in curve, vehicle will begin to skid.

Speed

Slow for turnsbefore the turn.

Page 30: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

The sharper the turn, the slower the car. Right turns are sharper than lefts.

Sharpness

Page 31: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

The heavier the vehicle the slower it must travel.

Load

Page 32: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Banked Curves

Curves that are higher onthe outside than on theinside.

Braking

Page 34: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

The time and distance it takesa driver to identify, predict, and decide to slow for a hazard.

The time/distance it takes adriver to react to a hazard.

Average reaction time=

¾ of a second

Page 36: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

The time/distance your vehicletravels from the time the brakesare applied until you stop.

Stopping Distance

Page 38: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

The force at which a movingobject hits another object.

Page 39: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Momentum

• A vehicle’s momentum(how fast/slow an object is moving) is determined by its’ weight and speed.

• Higher Momentum = More Damage

Page 40: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

SpeedWeight

Distance between impactand stop

Page 41: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

The faster the speed, the greater the force

of impact.

Page 42: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

Adjusting speed to Highway Conditions

• 3 situations in which you should change your speed(SLOWER):– 1. Visibility decreases– 2. Traction decreases– 3. Loss of space around your car.

Page 43: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

When you should adjust

• Location of other vehicles—if you lose space around any part of your car, you may need to speed up or slow down.

• If you break the safe following distance(which is 2 car lengths or 2-4 seconds)

• Always SPEED UP when changing lanes.

Page 44: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

The heavier the vehicle, thegreater the force of impact.

Page 45: Inertia 2 rules of inertia –1. objects move in a straight line unless some force is put upon them –2. objects at rest stay at rest.

The shorter the distance, the greater the

force of impact.

1. Vehicle hitting an object.2. Occupants hitting something inside the vehicle.

* Object inside vehicle hitting occupants.

3. Organs hitting body cavity.

Hold occupants in place during collision.

A restraint device the occupant must put on themselves.

Ex.- Seatbelt

Active Restraint

A restraint device that works automatically.
