Motion Graphing 2.0

An object begins at a positive position and remains at rest [ie. not moving]. In this case, the correct graph to describe this motion would be:

• 
• 
• 
• 

An object begins at a positive position and moves in the positive direction at a constant speed. In this case, the correct graph to describe this motion would be:

• 
• 
• 
• 

An object begins at a positive position and moves in the negative direction at a constant speed. In this case, the correct graph to describe this motion would be:

• 
• 
• 
• 

An object begins at a positive position and moves in the positive direction at a NON-CONSTANT speed. In this case, the correct graph to describe this motion would be:

• 
• 
• 
• 

In THIS graph, the object has the fastest speed...

• between 0-2 seconds

• between 2-4 seconds

• after 4 seconds

In this graph, Object A...

• is moving in the positive direction at a constant speed

• is moving in the negative direction at a constant speed

• is staying at rest in the positive direction at a constant speed

• is moving in the negative direction at a non-constant speed

In this graph, Object B...

• is moving in the positive direction at a constant speed

• is moving in the negative direction at a constant speed

• is staying at rest in the positive direction at a constant speed

• is moving in the negative direction at a non-constant speed

In this graph, between Object A & Object B...

• A-moves faster because of a steeper slope

• A-moves faster because of a shallower slope

• B-moves slower because of a steeper slope

• B-moves faster because of a shallower slope

In this graph, at 4 seconds...

• Object A & B collide head on

• Object A & B are at the same position

• Object A-starts moving faster than B

• Object B-starts moving faster than A

In this graph, from 0 to 4 seconds...

• Object A & B travel the same distance

• Object A traveled a greater distance than Object B

• Object B traveled a greater distance than Object A
