Interpreting position vs time graphs Honors physics

Constant velocity To begin, consider a car moving with a constant, rightward (+) velocity - say of +10 m/s.

increasing velocity (acceleration) Now consider a car moving with a rightward (+), changing velocity - that is, a car that is moving rightward but speeding up or accelerating.

Slow and fast constant velocity Fast Rightward (+) Constant Velocity Slow Rightward (+) Constant Velocity Steep  large slope Shallow  small slope

Slow and fast constant velocity Fast Leftward (-) Constant Velocity Slow Leftward (-) Constant Velocity Steep  large slope Shallow  small slope

Accelerated motion Negative (-) Velocity Slow to Fast Leftward (-) Velocity Fast to Slow

Let’s Analyze a graph First the car drove east on the street at 5 m/s for 5 seconds. After driving for 25 meters, the car suddenly stopped and remained at rest for 5 more seconds.

Let’s write a story (LS) Analyze the graph and write a story that matches up with the motion described by it. Be prepared to share your story with the class.
