Briefly state what you think velocity is and how you think it is an example of a rate.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

Velocity is a numerical value of how fast an object is moving in a particular direction.

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

** A rate is a change in something divided by a change in something else.

This question concerns velocity, which is the rate of change of position: change in position divided by change in clock time. **

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

ok

Given average speed and time interval how do you find distance moved?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

I will multiply the given average speed by the time interval

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

14:07:18

** You multiply average speed * time interval to find distance moved.

For example, 50 miles / hour * 3 hours = 150 miles. **

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

ok

Given average speed and distance moved how do you find the corresponding time interval?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

I will divide the distance moved by the given average speed

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

14:08:31

** time interval = distance / average speed. For example if we travel 100 miles at 50 mph it takes 2 hours--we divide the distance by the speed.

In symbols, if `ds = vAve * `dt then `dt = `ds/vAve.

Also note that (cm/s ) / s = cm/s^2, not sec, whereas cm / (cm/s) = cm * s / cm = s, as appropriate in a calculation of `dt. **

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

ok

......!!!!!!!!...................................

14:09:40

Given time interval and distance moved how do you get average speed?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

I will divide the distance moved by the given time interval

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

14:09:51

** Average speed = distance / change in clock time. This is the definition of average speed.

For example if we travel 300 miles in 5 hours we have been traveling at an average speed of 300 miles / 5 hours = 60 miles / hour. **

RESPONSE -->

ok
