The velocity-time graph for a two-stage rocket is shown below. Use the graph and your understanding of slope calculations to determine the acceleration of the rocket during the listed time interval.
What is the acceleration of the rocket from t=4 -> t=12 ?
What is the graphical interpretation of the motion of the car?
What is the graphical interpretation of the motion of the car?
When interpreting a Velocity vs Time graph, the slope is the
On Earth, things fall towards the center of the Earth at m/s/s (m/s^2). BUT! On the moon, objects fall at m/s/s (m/s^2). This is due to the moon having mass than the Earth.
Draw what you predict 'freefall' on a pos vs. time graph and vel vs. time graph would look like.
REVIEW: Look at the distance-time graph below.
What is the total distance traveled?
REVIEW: A kayaker paddles along a river for 4 hours. In that time, she manages to move a total of 20 miles. What is the average speed of the kayak for this trip?
