A distance-time graph shows you accurately which direction the runner is moving depending on whether the runner is increasing or decreasing their speed, moving backward, or remaining at a constant speed.
Study with Quizlet and memorize flashcards containing terms like Who ran farther, Max or Molly?, Who ran faster? Explain:, Click the green Start button on the stopwatch. What happens? and more.
The Distance-Time Graphs Gizmo shows a dynamic graph of the position of a runner over time. The Distance-Time and Velocity-Time Graphs Gizmo includes that same graph and adds two new ones: a velocity vs. time graph and a distance traveled vs. time graph.
Study with Quizlet and memorize flashcards containing terms like In which graph is the runner running the fastest?, Which equation describes the fastest runner? A. distance=0.5⋅time B. distance=0.33⋅time C. distance=time D. distance=2⋅time, Which graph indicates that one runner started 10 yards ahead of the other? and more.
Gizmo Warm-up. The Distance-Time Graphs Gizmo shows a graph and a runner on a track. You can control the motion of the runner by manipulating the graph (drag the red dots). Check that Number of points is 2, and that under Runner.
Which sentence best describes the runner whose distance-time graph is shown? A. The runner ran forward for 2 seconds, and then backward for 2 seconds. B. The runner ran forward for 2 seconds, and then stood still for 2 seconds. C. The runner ran forward for 2 seconds, and then ran forward more slowly for 2 seconds. D.
To calculate the velocity for each time interval, first calculate the speed of the runner in that interval (speed = distance ÷ time). If the direction is left to right, velocity is positive. If the direction is right to left, velocity is negative. Fill in the velocity column of the table above.
