1. What does the slope of a distance vs. time graph indicate about an object’s motion? 2. What does the slope of a speed vs. time graph indicate about an object’s motion? Questions 3 - 8 refer to the following generic graph shapes. Write the letter corresponding to the appropriate graph in the blank at the left of each question. 3.
Unit I: Motion, Worksheet B: Interpreting Motion Graphs The table below gives distance and time data for a moving object. Pay attention to how the time intervals are changing as the
Describing the motion of an object is occasionally hard to do with words. Sometimes graphs help make motion easier to picture, and therefore understand. Motion is a change in position measured by distance and time. Speed tells us the rate at which an object moves. Velocity tells the speed and direction of a moving object.

Graphing Motion
Graph the motion, and place units on the graph. b. What is the slope of the curve plotted, and what are the units? c. How does this value compare to the velocity stated in the question? d. Complete the table showing the car’s velocity at the end of each second. Graph the velocity vs. time, and include units on your graph. e.
Sketch velocity vs. time graphs corresponding to the following descriptions of the motion of an object. 1. The object is moving away from position 0 at a constant (steady) speed. 2. The object is standing still. 3. The object moves toward position 0 at …

Sample responses can be found on the second page of worksheet-compare.pdf, or by clicking on the image on the right. The graph below shows velocity as a function of time for some unknown object. What can we say about the motion of this object? Plot the corresponding graph of acceleration as a function of time.
The graph below describes the motion of a fly that starts out flying left. a. Identify section(s) where the fly moves with constant velocity. b. Identify section(s) where the fly moves right slowing down. c. Identify section(s) where the fly moves left speeding up. d. When is the fly at rest? e.
INTERPRETING GRAPHS- As I have said many times in class, “a picture is worth a thou-sand words”. In physics, a graph is “worth a thousand numbers”. A great deal of information can be obtained by looking and interpret-ing graphs describing motion (displacement, speed, velocity, and acceleration).
Unit: Kinematics (Motion) Physics Name: Block: Motion Graphs 1. An object’s motion is described by the following graph of position vs. time: (a) What is the object doing between 2s and 4s? What is its velocity during that interval? (b) What is the object doing between 6s and 7s? What is its velocity during that interval?
Graphical Analysis of Motion Part 1: Concepts: 1. The graph below shows the position vs time for an object in motion. Give a description of what the object is doing during each of the intervals listed in the table below: 2. The graph below shows the velocity vs time for an object in motion. Give a description of what
