Creating Velocity Versus Time Graphs

A printable worksheet for students to practice describing one-dimension motion using velocity-time graphs.

The presentation includes nine time vs. position graphs. The first three are meant to be used for teaching how to read them. The next three provide an opportunity for students to practice reading them, while the last three display the...

It's story time! Show your class how to use a distance-time graph to tell a story. They learn to draw and analyze a graph using distance and time data. The story then continues to compare velocity and time. 

The narrator os this video explains how to create a velocity-time graph from the position-time graph. He works through several examples after explaining the shapes of the position-time graphs. 

Learners investigate the relationship of position with respect to time in a graphical situation and develop an understanding of the slope related to the object in motion. They then use that understanding to create a velocity versus time...

This video teaches the viewer how to read a position vs. time graph. It explains how to use the graph to determine the following quantities: displacement, distance, average velocity, average speed, instantaneous velocity, and...

Video tutorial explains how to read an acceleration vs. time graph and shows how the area under the curve gives the change in velocity, while providing a few examples. [14:37]

Increasingly, colleges and employers want applicants with strong conceptual analysis skills, so give them some practice! Applying these skills to position-time graphs encourages synthesis of knowledge. To complete an installment of a...

Three sections review the key skills covered in a series on dimensional kinematics. The first covers the difference between distance and displacement. The second addresses the relationship between velocity and slope. The third includes...
