4. 1. What is the Average Speed of Object A, B, and C?
2. What is similar about each line within the graph? What is
different?
3. What is the same about each of the motion diagrams? What is
different?
4. How would the graph lines appear if an objects speed was not
constant?
5. How would the motion diagrams look if the objects were not
moving at a constant speed?
5. Today’s Objectives:
1. Create two motion diagrams that reflect the movement of two motorized
vehicles.
2. Record data for each vehicle using a data chart (Distance and Time)
3. Create One graph and plot both vehicles movement on this graph.
***4. Analyze your motion diagrams and graph. Determine how to get your
two vehicles to meet at the center of the room at the same time when
released from opposite sides of the room.
