Resource summary
b) Movement and position
How to plot a distance time graph
Time always along the bottom (t)
Displacement up the side (m/km) (d)
GRADIENT = VELOCITY
Distance/time=V
Average speed = Distance moved/Tiem taken
Experiment to investigate the motion of everyday objects
Examples: Ball rolling down tilted board. Test for how far it rolled in how many seconds.
Do twice and find a mean
Acceleration = Change in velocity/Time taken
a = (v - u)/t
change in velocity = final velocity - original velocity
How to plot velocity time graphs
Time is always along the bottom (t)
Speed up the side (m/s) (v)
GRADIENT = ACCELERATION
Acceleration from the gradient
Example (vertical axis) 20m/s & (horizontal axis) 5 seconds. SO acceleration = 20/5 = 4m/s2 (don't forget the squared)
AREA = DISTANCE TRAVELLED
v * t = d
Units - kg, m, m/s, m/s2, N,s, N/kg, kgm/s
