The problem:
A graph is constructed representing velocity vs. clock time for the interval between clock times t = 5 seconds and t = 13 seconds. The graph consists of a straight line from the point (5 sec, 16 cm/s) to the point (13 sec, 40 cm/s).
What is the clock time at the midpoint of this interval?

t=9
#$&*
What is the velocity at the midpoint of this interval?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
27 cm/s
@& Close, but off by a little.*@
#$&*
How far do you think the object travels during this interval?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
???I’m not really sure how to go about this one. I don’t have any idea at all actually.???
@& The object travels at more than 16 cm/s on the average, so in 8 seconds it would travel more that 16 cm/s * 8 s = 128 cm.
Its average velocity is less than 40 cm/s, so it travels less than 320 cm.
Can you use this as a starting point?*@
#$&*
By how much does the clock time change during this interval?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
8 seconds.
#$&*
By how much does velocity change during this interval?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
24 m/s
#$&*
What is the average rate of change of velocity with respect to clock time on this interval?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
3 m/s/s.
#$&*
What is the rise of the graph between these points?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
24 units.
#$&*
What is the run of the graph between these points?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
8 units
#$&*
What is the slope of the graph between these points?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
3
#$&*
What does the slope of the graph tell you about the motion of the object during this interval?

What is the average rate of change of the object's velocity with respect to clock time during this interval?
