11:41:15 `q001. Note that there are 11 questions in this assignment. vAve = `ds / `dt, which is the definition of average velocity and which fits well with our intuition about this concept. If displacement `ds is measured in meters and the time interval `dt is measured in seconds, in what units will vAve be obtained?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> meters/seconds confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
11:41:52 vAve = `ds / `dt. The units of `ds are cm and the units of `dt are sec, so the units of `ds / `dt must be cm / sec. Thus vAve is in cm/s.
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> I am pretty sure in the question you said meters not cm self critique assessment: 2

11:43:23 `q002. If the definition equation vAve = `ds / `dt is to be solved for `ds we multiply both sides of the equation by `dt to obtain `ds = vAve * `dt. If vAve is measured in cm / sec and `dt in sec, then in what units must `ds be measured?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> cm/sec^2 confidence assessment: 2
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
11:44:49 Since vAve is in cm/sec and `dt in sec, `ds = vAve * `dt must be in units of cm / sec * sec = cm.
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> Yes I guess I knew that I was overthinking when you multipy one side of a division by itself it cancels out self critique assessment: 2

......!!!!!!!!...................................
11:46:43 `q003. Explain the algebra of multiplying the unit cm / sec by the unit sec.
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> cm/sec*sec the 2 seconds will cancel out because they oth on one side of the division line confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
11:47:53 When we multiply cm/sec by sec we are multiplying the fractions cm / sec and sec / 1. When we multiply fractions we will multiply numerators and denominators. We obtain cm * sec / ( sec * 1). This can be rearranged as (sec / sec) * (cm / 1), which is the same as 1 * cm / 1. Since multiplication or division by 1 doesn't change a quantity, this is just equal to cm.

11:53:03 `q004. If the definition vAve = `ds / `dt is to be solved for `dt we multiply both sides of the equation by `dt to obtain vAve * `dt = `ds, then divide both sides by vAve to get `dt = `ds / vAve. If vAve is measured in km / sec and `ds in km, then in what units must `dt be measured?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> `dt=`ds/vAve `dt=km/km/sec The km/km will equal 1 leaving only sec thus `dt is measured in sec confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
11:53:34 Since `dt = `ds / vAve and `ds is in km and vAve in km/sec, `ds / vAve will be in km / (km / sec) = seconds.

......!!!!!!!!...................................
11:55:26 `q005. Explain the algebra of dividing the unit km / sec into the unit km.
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> km divided by km will equal 1/sec then multipy on both sides by 1/sec leaving only seconds on the left side of the equation confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
11:56:53 The division is km / (km / sec). Since division by a fraction is multiplication by the reciprocal of the fraction, we have km * (sec / km). This is equivalent to multiplication of fractions (km / 1) * (sec / km). Multiplying numerators and denominators we get (km * sec) / (1 * km), which can be rearranged to give us (km / km) * (sec / 1), or 1 * sec / 1, or just sec.
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> I understand your reasoning I believe my reasoning is correct too however if it is not please let me know self critique assessment: 2

12:09:45 `q006. If an object moves from position s = 4 meters to position s = 10 meters between clock times t = 2 seconds and t = 5 seconds, then at what average rate is the position of the object changing (i.e., what is the average velocity of the object) during this time interval? What is the change `ds in position, what is the change `dt in clock time, and how do we combine these quantities to obtain the average velocity?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> Distance 10m-4m=6m Time 5s-2s=3 sec vAve6m/3 sec=2m/sec vAve = `ds/`dt =6m/3 sec =2m/sec confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
12:10:07 We see that the changes in position and clock time our `ds = 10 meters - 4 meters = 6 meters and `dt = 5 seconds - 2 seconds = 3 seconds. We see also that the average velocity is vAve = `ds / `dt = 6 meters / (3 seconds) = 2 meters / second. Comment on any discrepancy between this reasoning and your reasoning.

12:11:32 `q007. Symbolize this process: If an object moves from position s = s1 to position s = s2 between clock times t = t1 and t = t2, when what expression represents the change `ds in position and what expression represents the change `dt in the clock time?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> `ds=s2-s1 `dt=t2-t1 confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
12:11:41 We see that the change in position is `ds = s2 - s1, obtained as usual by subtracting the first position from the second. Similarly the change in clock time is `dt = t2 - t1. What expression therefore symbolizes the average velocity between the two clock times.

12:15:07 `q008. On a graph of position s vs. clock time t we see that the first position s = 4 meters occurs at clock time t = 2 seconds, which corresponds to the point (2 sec, 4 meters) on the graph, while the second position s = 10 meters occurs at clock time t = 5 seconds and therefore corresponds to the point (5 sec, 10 meters). If a right triangle is drawn between these points on the graph, with the sides of the triangle parallel to the s and t axes, the rise of the triangle is the quantity represented by its vertical side and the run is the quantity represented by its horizontal side. This slope of the triangle is defined as the ratio rise / run. What is the rise of the triangle (i.e., the length of the vertical side) and what quantity does the rise represent? What is the run of the triangle and what does it represent?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> The rise is 6meter and it represents `ds The run is 3 sec and it represents `dt confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
12:15:49 The rise of the triangle represents the change in the position coordinate, which from the first point to the second is 10 m - 4 m = 6 m. The run of the triangle represents the change in the clock time coordinate, which is 5 s - 2 s = 3 s.

12:16:33 `q009. What is the slope of this triangle and what does it represent?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> rise/run 6m/3sec= 2m/sec = vAve confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
12:16:45 The slope of this graph is 6 meters / 3 seconds = 2 meters / second.

......!!!!!!!!...................................
12:19:06 `q010. In what sense does the slope of any graph of position vs. clock time represent the velocity of the object? For example, why does a greater slope imply greater velocity?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> vAve = rise/run when rise is position and run is time so the steeper the slope the higher the velocity 6m/3sec=2m/sec least slope 6m/2sec=3m/sec 6m/1sec=6m/sec greatest slope confidence assessment: 3
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
12:19:20 Since the rise between two points on a graph of velocity vs. clock time represents the change in `ds position, and since the run represents the change `dt clock time, the slope represents rise / run, or change in position /change in clock time, or `ds / `dt. This is the definition of average velocity.

12:23:23 `q011. As a car rolls from rest down a hill, its velocity increases. Describe a graph of the position of the car vs. clock time. If you have not already done so, tell whether the graph is increasing at an increasing rate, increasing at a decreasing rate, decreasing at an increasing rate, decreasing at a decreasing rate, increasing at a constant rate or decreasing at a constant rate. Is the slope of your graph increasing or decreasing? How does the behavior of the slope of your graph indicate the condition of the problem, namely that the velocity is increasing?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> The line wil be a staight line becuase the car because it is rolling will increase velocity at a constant rate so the graph will be increasing at a constant rate The slope is increasing If the line is going up and right it has increasing velocity if it is going down and right is has decreasing velocity confidence assessment: 2
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
12:25:12 The graph should have been increasing, since the position of the car increases with time (the car gets further and further from its starting point). The slope of the graph should have been increasing, since it is the slope of the graph that indicates velocity. An increasing graph within increasing slope is said to be increasing at an increasing rate.
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> So if it was increasing at a constant rate would you have a horizontal line and we had a sloped line to it was inc at an inc rate? self critique assessment: 2
