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?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

The clocked time at the midpoint is 9 ((13+5)/2)

#$&*

• What is the velocity at the midpoint of this interval?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

The velocity at this point is 28 cm/sec this was calculated by adding the finial and starting velocity they divide the result by two ((40+16)/ 2)

#$&*

• How far do you think the object travels during this interval?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

the object travelled at a average rate of 28 cm/sec this was calculated by adding the finial and starting velocity they divide the result by two ((40+16) /2) over a time interval of 8 sec (13sec – 5sec) so the distance (d) traveled is average velocity multiplied by time;

d = 28*8 = 224cm

#$&*

• By how much does the clock time change during this interval?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

The clock changes from 5 sec to 13 sec so it changes by 8 sec over the interval

#$&*

• By how much does velocity change during this interval?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

The velocity changes from 16 cm/sec to 40cm/sec so it changes by 24cm/ sec over the interval

#$&*

• 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):

the average rate of change of the velocity (acceleration) is given bellow;

= change in velocity/ change in time

= (24 cm/sec) /8 sec

=3 cm/sec2

#$&*

• What is the rise of the graph between these points?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

the rise of the graph between the points is 24cm/sec (40-16)

#$&*

• What is the run of the graph between these points?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

the run of the graph between the points is 8 sec (13-5)

#$&*

• What is the slope of the graph between these points?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

the slope is given by rise/run

slope = 24/8

Slope = 3 cm/sec2

#$&*

• What does the slope of the graph tell you about the motion of the object during this interval?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

The slope of the graph gives the acceleration of the object between the two points

#$&*

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

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

the average rate of change of the velocity (acceleration) is given bellow;

= change in velocity/ change in time

= (24 cm/sec) /8 sec

=3 cm/sec2
