The problem:
A ball is moving at 10 cm/s when clock time is 4 seconds, and at 40 cm/s when clock time is 9 seconds.
*
Sketch a v vs. t graph and represent these two events by the points (4 sec, 10 cm/s) and (9 s, 40 cm/s).
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):
The graph is increasing at an increasing rate
#$&*
*
Sketch a straight line segment between these points.
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):
#$&*
@& The graph is increasing. From the two data points we don't know whether the rate of increase is changing or how.*@
*
What are the rise, run and slope of this segment?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):
rise= (40-10) = 30cm/s run= 9-4 = 5sec slope = 30/5= 5cm/s/s

*
What is the area of the graph beneath this segment?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):
area is equal to the average height * width
(40cm/s + 10cm/s)/2 = 25cm/s* (9sec- 4sec)= 125cm
