Chapter 4, Section 3 Acceleration

Acceleration acceleration: the rate at which your speed (or velocity) changes

Acceleration + a = increasing speed - a = decreasing speed

Acceleration and Speed Speed and acceleration are not the same thing! You can be moving at a constant speed, but have no acceleration

Acceleration and Speed Exit Slip SHOW YOUR WORK! 1. A car’s velocity increases from 7.0 m/s to 25.0 m/s in 4.0 seconds. What is the car’s acceleration?

Acceleration and Speed-Time Graphs acceleration = the slope of a speed-time graph What is the acceleration of the bike?

Acceleration and Speed-Time Graphs steeper line = greater acceleration

Acceleration and Speed-Time Graphs

Acceleration and Speed-Time Graphs 1. Determine the slope of the line between 0 s and 4 s. What does the slope of the line tell you about the acceleration of the car during this time interval? 2. Describe the speed of the car between 5 and 7 s. What does this tell you about the car’s acceleration? 3. What is the slope of the line between 7 and 9 s? What does this tell you about the car’s acceleration?

Acceleration and Graphs of Motion The position-time graph is curved when an object accelerates
