Unit 1: Constant velocity WS 3

use the description of motion (in words) to make a sketch on the position vs. Time (x vs.t) graphs below each description. Then use the description and the position vs. time graph you just made to make a sketch on the Veolicty vs. Time (v vs. t) graphs.

1

The object is moving away from the origin at a constant (steady) speed.

1

Velocity vs. time graph

1

The object is standing still.

1

Velocity vs. time graph

1

The object moves toward the origin at a steady speed for 10 sec, then stands still for 10 sec

1

Velocity vs. time graph

1

The object moves away from the origin at a steady speed for 10 sec, reverses direction and moves back toward the origin at the exact same speed.

1

Velocity vs. time graph

For each position vs. time graph, determine the value of the velocity for each section of the graph (#9  one section, 10 and 11 have 2 sections). Then draw the velocity vs. time graphs that show the exact same motion described in the position vs. time graphs. QUANTITATIVE GRAPHS.

Moving forward is a POSTIVIE SLOPE on a Position vs. Time graph. How do you show moving forward on a Velocity vs. Time graph?
