4. Investigation Mini-Investigation Speed Why do this Lab? Many students have an understanding of what speed is. But they have little knowledge on how to measure and calculate speed. You will learn how to measure speed with this lab. Procedure You will get an object from your teacher. Using your Past experience with the object you just received from your teacher mark out a straight-line track on your table using tape. 1. On your table using a piece of tape make the starting line and the finish line. 2. Using a ruler measure the distance of your track. Record your distance on your own paper. 3. Have someone place your object at the starting line. 4. Have someone to take the time the object travels. 5. Push the object down the track. As you push the object down the track someone should record the time it takes to travel from the starting line to finish line. 6. Record your time beside the distance of the track on your own paper.

5. Reading Passage: Speed Speed can be calculated by dividing the distance and object travels by the time it takes to cover the distance. The formula for finding speed is Speed=distance s=d time t The standard unit for speed is meters per second (m/s). Speed is also given in kilometers per hour (km/h).
