1. Terminator 2 Bike evasion exercise.
Objective: To gather data, present as a graph, and analyze the journey of John Connor’s bike ride in Terminator 2.
Copy title and objective into page __ of your INB.
Read the directions and glue in the table ready to record the times.

2. Terminator 2 Bike evasion exercise.
Objective: To gather data, present as a graph, and analyze the journey of John Connor’s bike ride in Terminator 2.
Procedure:
Start your stop watch the moment the boy’s bike starts up. Record the time on the stopwatch when the boy reaches each stage into the results table.

3. Results Incident Start bike Leaps bike over hedge
Bike swerves in front of semi
Semi hits first car
Bike goes down ramp
Bike stops near bridge
Speed (m/s) 6 9
Time(s)
Incident
We first see Terminator
Terminator shoots at gate lock
Terminator’s bike drops into drain
Semi’s tire is burst
Semi explodes
Speed (m/s) 12
Time (s)

4. Analyze:
Convert all times to seconds.
Plot results on a speed - time graph.
Time goes on the x-axis; this is the independent variable. Speed goes on the y-axis (dependent axis).
Label each point that John changes motion: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H and I. Point A is at time 0,speed 0.
Pre-AP:
Divide the area below the graph line into five triangles and 4 rectangles.

6. Plot the data
What’s wrong with this graph?

7. Graphs need title, axis labels and units
Identify areas of acceleration, deceleration and when stopped

8. Analysis: Identify areas of acceleration, deceleration and stopped
At what point was John’s acceleration the greatest?
Work out the following Accelerations:
Acceleration A - B Acceleration B – C Acceleration C – D
Acceleration D - E Acceleration E – F Acceleration F – G Acceleration G - H Acceleration H - I
Work out the distances between :
A - B, B - C, C – D, D – E, E – F, F – G, G – H, H – I, TOTAL DISTANCE =

9. Divide graph into 4 rectangles and 5 triangles
To calculate the distance travelled we need to calculate the area under each slope.
Divide graph into 4 rectangles and 5 triangles

Remember area of a rectangle is ?
Area = length x breadth
Area of a triangle is ?
Area = ½( length x breadth)

10. Area between 0-15 seconds = ½(15x6) = 45meters
Area between seconds = ½(3x23) + (6x23) = = 144meters
Area between seconds = (9x19) = 171meters
Finish off last ones
