IB Physics Mechanics: Distance-Time and Displacement-Time Graphs

This video tutorial covers standard level physics, focusing on mechanics and motion. It uses real-life scenarios, such as Mark's coffee run and a helicopter chase, to explain distance-time and displacement-time graphs. The tutorial also discusses the concepts of speed, velocity, and acceleration, providing practical examples and calculations. It concludes with exam preparation tips and a recap of key learning objectives.

How can you determine the average speed of an object from a distance-time graph?

Describe how to find the speed of an object at a specific point on a curve in a distance-time graph.

What is the relationship between velocity and the gradient of a displacement-time graph?

What does a steep gradient on a distance-time graph indicate about the speed of an object?
