A CCELERATION G RAPHS Pictures worth even MORE words now!

RECALL… Motion can be graphed Acceleration is merely a change in speed over time Knowing this, what do you think the two axis of our acceleration graphs are going to be?

A CCELERATION G RAPHS The vertical axis (y) will be velocity (m/s) The horizontal axis (x) will be time (s) SLOPE = Acceleration

G RAPHING AND A CCELERATION Which of these is a velocity graph, and which is an acceleration graph? How can you tell?

V ELOCITY VS T IME G RAPHS Velocity v. Time graph shows how velocity changes over time ANY slope at all shows an acceleration

DIFFERENT SLOPES… A POSITIVE slope means there is POSITIVE acceleration Positive acceleration means speeding up Which of these lines has a greater acceleration? B – It has a greater slope

DIFFERENT SLOPES… A slope of ZERO shows an acceleration of 0m/s 2 This just means there is a constant speed Slope of zero = horizontal line Which of these lines has a greater acceleration? Neither – Both are zero Which of these lines has a greater velocity? A – It has velocity of 130m/s

DIFFERENT SLOPES… A NEGATIVE slope means there is NEGATIVE acceleration Negative acceleration means slowing down Slowing down = DECELERATING Which of these lines has a greater deceleration? A – It has a greater slope

S LOPES : R ECAP Line slopes upLine slopes down Velocity is increasingVelocity is decreasing Positive accelerationNegative acceleration Straight Horizontal line Constant velocity No acceleration

C ALCULATING A CCELERATION What is the formula for acceleration? What is the velocity at 1 s? What is the velocity at 4 s? What is the acceleration between 1 and 4 seconds? A = (Vf-Vi) t = (2m/s – 8m/s) 3 s - = - 6 m/s= -2 m/s 2 - 3s

P UTTING IT ALL TOGETHER  Tell me what is happening for each line A – Decelerating B – Constant velocity (0 m/s) AND no acceleration. This is STOPPED. C – Acceleration D – Constant velocity (15 m/s) AND no acceleration. This is NOT STOPPED
