1. Graphing Velocity Glencoe Chapter 3 Section 1

2. Graphing Velocity and Speed Graphing speed involves: a. Measuring total distance traveled a. Measuring total distance traveled  How far has the object moved? b. Total time elapsed  How long did the object take to move a certain distance? move a certain distance?

3. Graphing Velocity and Speed Could also be graphed by taking several measurements of distance and time. Plot the points and connect points to make a line graph showing changes in velocity.

5. What do these graphs show? Stopped object Object speeding up Two objects, one faster Than the other.

6. What is going on at different parts of the graph?
