Math Physics x x t y Position vs. Time
Math Physics x x t y Find the Slope
Math Physics x x t y yy xx xx tt Slope = Rise / Run
Math Physics x x t y yy xx xx tt Slope = Rise / Run Slope = y / x Slope = x / t
Physics x t xx tt Slope = x/ t = Avg. Vel …
Physics x t xx tt The Slope of a Position vs. Time graph is Average Velocity
Calculate the Slope Position (meters) Time (seconds)
Calculate the Slope x (m) T (s) Point One Point Two
Calculate the Slope x (m) T (s) Point One Point Two 9 m 1 m 2 s6 s
Calculate the Slope x (m) T (s) Point One: 2s, 9m Point Two: 6s, 1m 9 m 1 m 2 s6 s
Slope = Rise / Run x (m) T (s) Point One: 2s, 9m Point Two: 6s, 1m 9 m 1 m 2 s6 s Slope = x / t
Slope = Rise / Run Slope = x / t Slope = (x 2 - x 1 ) / (t 2 - t 1 ) Slope = (1m - 9m) / (6s - 2s) Slope = -8m / 4s Slope = -2 m/s Why does the negative tell us?
