Average Velocity PowerPoint 8.2

Speed versus Velocity scalar quantity Magnitude but no direction
Speed, π£, is the distance travelled during a given time interval divided by that time interval, π£= π Ξπ‘ = π π β π π π‘ π β π‘ π . vector quantity Magnitude and direction Velocity, π£ , is the displacement during a given time interval divided by that time interval, π£ = Ξ π Ξπ‘ = π π β π π π‘ π β π‘ π . The SI units for both π£ and π£ is m/s, but km/h is also utilized.

How would you describe the speed and velocity o each jogger?
The femaleβs π changes more than the maleβs in the same Ξπ‘. The female has greater π£ and greater velocity π£ than the male as is shown by the steeper positive slope.

More About Slopes Positive slope, π£ ππ£ in the positive direction, π£ ππ£ > 0. Zero slope, stationary, π£ ππ£ = 0. Negative slope, π£ ππ£ in the negative direction, π£ ππ£ < 0.

What is the average velocity for the following time intervals?

Determining π£ ππ£ with a Line of Best-Fit
In reality, very few things move in uniform motion. With a line that passes through or close to each point, the average velocity can be calculated. Position, m πππππ= πππ π ππ’π = 40 π β10 π 40 π β10 π =1 π/π Time, s

Practice with Graphing and Best-Fit Lines
With the data below, construct a position-time graph and plot the data points. Draw a best-fit line. Calculate the slope of the best-fit line.
