1. Today we are completing the average speed problems and uniform motion investigation. 2. Uniform Acceleration (Introduction) Today we are learning the basics of ACCELERATION. Acceleration is simply the change in speed (velocity) over time. Things can speed up, slow down or change direction - all of these are considered acceleration. If the acceleration is constant...meaning a consistent change in an objects speed, then the acceleration is considered uniform.
Uniform Motion InvestigationWhat is uniform motion and how is it represented on a speed-time graph? What does the solve of a distance-time graph represent?
In this section we will be solving some basic problems related to average speed, distance and time. We will also review the basics of experimental skills (dependent, independent, and control variables) and we will be doing a uniform motion investigation with dynamics carts.TutorialsAverage Speed CalculationThe following assignment sheet is used to practice solving average speed problems. |
