Graphs describe the details of motion Tell me what is happening with the robot arm.
Investigation • Graphical Descriptions of Uniform Motion • page 188
Graph Tells a Story • Looking at a position-time graph, can you describe how location changes? Even though it is not the variable on either axis, you can determine average velocity by calculating the slope of the position-time graph.
When the equation for average velocity is rearranged, the displacement equals the velocity multiplied by the elapsed time. • Displacement equals area in the velocity time graph. • ∆d = l x w • ∆d = ∆V x ∆t
Homework • Read pages 186 -191 • Do the following questions; • page 193 #3
