Graphing Motion

Graphing Motion. How can you find the speed from a distance-time graph?. Slope = rise ÷ run Speed = distance ÷ time Therefore: Distance = rise Time = run The slope of a distance-time graph is speed. Y2 – Y1 ------------ X2 – X1. Speedy Gonzales!. Slope = Rise / Run = ?. rise.

  1. Graphing Motion

  2. How can you find the speed from a distance-time graph? • Slope = rise ÷ run • Speed = distance ÷ time • Therefore: • Distance = rise • Time = run • The slope of a distance-time graph is speed Y2 – Y1 ------------ X2 – X1

  3. Speedy Gonzales! Slope = Rise / Run = ? rise Distance (m) run Time (sec)

  4. Bugs Bunny Slope = ? What’s Bug’s Doing here? So what’s the speed? rise Distance (m) run Time (sec)

  5. Daffy Duck! During what time did Daffy rest? During what time did Daffy walk toward the detector? When did Daffy walk faster, when moving away or moving toward the detector? During what time did Daffy walk away from the detector? A Distance (miles) C B Time (min)

  6. Graphing Motion A steeper slope on a distance-time graph indicates a higher speed.
