Week 25: Motion

How do you know when an object is in motion? Of course, your natural response is to say that you saw the object move.  However, there were things in the environment that helped you draw that conclusion.  This week we will discuss motion, how to measure motion, how to graph motion, and how motion relates to force.

VOTW: motion, reference point, slope, line graph, x-axis, y-axis, constant rate of change, speed, velocity, variable

Here is a short video on motion and graphing motion. Click this link.
