1D Unit
In this unit we were learning about speed, direction, distance and velocity. We also learned about VT and PT graphs which show which direction an object is moving and how fast. We used Moving Man Stimulation to help us understand, what it basically is, is a man that we set a speed, velocity and time and let him walk at your given pace, then it makes a time and velocity graph for you to show his progress.
Three key ideas
Key Idea #1
The slope of a position time graph tells us about an object's velocity.
Key Idea #2
The slope of a velocity time graph tells us about an object's acceleration
Key Idea #3
The area under a velocity time graph is equal to the displacement of the object.
