IB Motion Graph Review
Distance/Position/Displacement Time Graphs Constant vel. Starting point Slope = Velocity Slower Velocity
Positive Negative Quadrants Where object is w/ref to starting point.
What is the object’s: a. displacement distance 10 30
Constant Velocity/Speed
Constant / Uniform Acceleration. On velocity time graph accl Constant / Uniform Acceleration. On velocity time graph accl. is slope of straight line. + or neg a shown?
What’s going on here physically?
Sign of velocity is direction of motion shown by the quadrant. What does this show?
What does -v mean?
What does the sign of slope mean?
Displacement = Area Under Curve v = d/t then, vt = d.
To find displacement, calc area of triangle + rectangle.
When is object back at start point? + area must = - area
Acceleration – time graphs Graph d-t, v-t, a-t tossed ball & caught at same height.
