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):
13s-5s = 8 s. 8s/2 = 4s. midpoint interval = 9s
#$&*
• What is the velocity at the midpoint of this interval?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
40cm/s - 16 cm/s = 24cm/s /2 =12s. 16 cm/s +12s = 28cm/s at midpoint.

• How far do you think the object travels during this interval?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
`ds = vAvg*`dt
= 24 cm/s * 8 s = 3cm
#$&*
• By how much does the clock time change during this interval?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
`dt = 13s - 5s = 8s

• By how much does velocity change during this interval?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
`dv = 40cm/s - 16cm/s = 24cm/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):
aAvg = 24cm/s / 8s = 3cm/s^2
#$&*
• What is the rise of the graph between these points?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
rise = change in velocity = 40cm/s-16cm/s = 24cm/s
#$&*
• What is the run of the graph between these points?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
run = change in time = 13s-5s = 8s
#$&*
• What is the slope of the graph between these points?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
slope = rise/run = 24cm/s/8s = 3cm/s^2
#$&*
• 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 tells me that that object is moving in a positive direction
#$&*
• 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):
I believe this is a repeat question?
aAvg= 24 cm/s / 8s = 3cm/s^2
