Semester Graph Review

To find the slope on a graph...

• Add up all the numbers on the x-axis and y-axis

• Find 2 points, and then calculate the rise/run between the 2 points

• Subtract the biggest number on x-axis from biggest number on y -axis

• Just guess a random number

The slope of a position vs time graph tells us the

• velocity

• displacement

• acceleration

• time

You can calculate the slope of a velocity-time graph.

If you calculate the slope of the graph between two points, what would that tell you?

• The velocity of the object.

• The distance travelled by the object.

• The acceleration of the object.

• The mass of the object

Jerry walked from home to school, then from the school to the park. What is his total displacement?

• 2 km

• 5 km

• 8 km

• 10 km

What does this graph represent?

• Constant speed
• Acceleration
• Not moving

According to the graph how far does the person travel in the first 5 seconds?

• 2 m

• 10 m

• 0 m

• 5 m

What section of the graph shows constant non-zero speed?

• A - B

• B - C

• C - D

• D - E

What is the total displacement of the object represented in this motion graph?

• 5 meters
• 4 meters
• 2 meters
• 0 meters

What is the total distance of the object represented in this motion graph?

• 5 meters

• 4 meters

• 2 meters

• 0 meters

What is the total distance of the object represented in this motion graph?

• 0 meters
• 10 meters
• 11 meters
• 20 meters
