Velocity n Velocity is the rate of change of positions. It is measured in m/s [N, E, S, W].
Velocity n Velocity is the rate of change of position. It is measured in m/s [N, E, S, W].
Acceleration n Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes. It is measured in m/s 2 [N, E, S, W].
Acceleration n Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes. It is measured in m/s 2 [N, E, S, W].
Position-Time Graphs n Position-Time (d-t) graphs illustrate 1 -D motion ¨ 0 is reference point ¨ One direction +ve the other –ve n Uniform Motion = n Uniform Acceleration =
Position-Time Graphs n Position-Time (d-t) graphs illustrate 1 -D motion ¨ 0 is reference point ¨ One direction +ve the other –ve n Uniform Motion = Constant velocity n Uniform Acceleration = Constant non-zero acceleration
Uniform Motion: Interpreting d-t Graphs n The slope of a line segment on a d-t graph tells you the average velocity.
Uniform Motion: Interpreting d-t Graphs n The slope of a line segment on a d-t graph tells you the average velocity.
Uniform Motion: Interpreting v-t Graphs n The slope of a line segment on a v-t graph tells you the average acceleration.
