t graph shown below, what is the final position at t = 9. What is the velocity at t = 3.00 s?įor the v vs. The position of a particle is given by x = 3 t 2. What is her average speed?Ī person walks from A to B at 5.00 m/s and returns to A at 3.00 m/s. The applet also displays a motion diagram for your reference.Ī person walks from A to B at 5.00 m/s and returns to A at 3.00 m/s. How much money do you have after 3 seconds A ball is thrown straight down with an initial speed of 20 m/sec. After it falls for 4 seconds, how fast is it going You have 20, and Uncle Harry gives you 10 each second for 3 seconds. If you dial those values into the sliders you'll see the red graph matches the green one. A ball dropped from rest picks up speed at 10 m/sec per second. For instance, if you click on the "Graph 7" button you can see the object begins with a velocity of −5 m/s, and its acceleration is the slope of the graph (+0.5 m/s²). The time an object takes to reach its highest point is equal to the time it takes to return to the same vertical position. If you figured it out correctly, the red graph will match the given one. Set the three blue sliders accordingly and press "play". Then examine the provided graph and try to glean information about the object's initial position, initial velocity, and acceleration. Here you should first click on one of the ten graph buttons at the bottom. Graph the position velocity and acceleration of a ball released from rest.
#Freefall position and velocity graphs series
This is a graph matching applet, but it works differently than the one featured in the lecture video and linked above. Typically the first problem in a series of worked examples pertaining to freefall. Notice the value of the acceleration changes halfway through the motion. The graph below represents the motion of an object over a recorded. This applet shows all three graphs for a ball in freefall at first and then accelerated upward by a rocket engine. Moreover, when the position, velocity and acceleration of an object are graphed over the. Try clicking on the "Launch up at 20 m/s" button to see a more complex example of freefall motion. Press "pause" to stop the annoying repeat.


This applet shows all three graphs for a ball in freefall. I have found a large set of physics applets in HTML5 from Boston University, however, and I plan to include some of these in these lecture outlines. The two graphs, of position against time and velocity against time, can be arranged so that both are visible at the same time on the screen, along with the values of deltat, g and k. I do not yet have access to an equivalent set of applets coded in HTML5. Unfortunately, most of the applets I feature in the lecture videos are Flash applets, and you won't be able to run any of them.
