The Real Kinematics

DoNow: How are velocity and change in velocity related? How are change in velocity and average acceleration related? (The Physics Classroom Tutorial)

AIM: I can describe the variables and shapes of graphs described by the complete kinematics equations. I can describe the motion revealed by slope, area and shape of the motion graphs; d vs. t, v vs. t and a vs. t.

Tumble Buggy Experience

DoNow: Determine the slope of the v vs. t graph in the marked regions and include the appropriate units. Determine the area under the curve in the marked regions and include the appropriate units. (notes)

AIM: I can describe how to graph the motion of a constant speed object using d vs. t and v vs. t; create equations that describe the motion; and describe how to predict the motion of objects using graphs and equations.

Intro to Motion & Drag Racing

DoNow: During takeoff, an airplane is flying with a constant speed of 180 m/s at an angle 34 degrees above the ground. (a) How fast does the plane's shadow move across the ground? (b) What distance does the shadow move across the ground in 10 seconds? (notes)

AIM: I can describe the variables, units, graph axis and the shape of graph; that are used to represent and predict the motion of objects, make good graphs and best-fit lines.

Physics Math & Graphing Heartbeats

DoNow: What are common variables for mass, length and time? What are the SI units of mass, length and time? Find the units for the constant k, so the equation will be dimensionally correct. (notes)

AIM: I can use a graph to predict an event by using a best-fit line and extrapolating the data.
