Motion Graphs - AP Physics 1: Kinematics Review Supplement

The video tutorial covers motion graph problems to help students prepare for the AP Physics One exam. It begins with a problem involving velocity and position graphs, explaining how to determine the correct position graph based on velocity. The tutorial then moves to an acceleration graph problem, emphasizing the importance of understanding signed areas under the curve to calculate velocity changes. The instructor highlights common mistakes students make and provides strategies for tackling multiple-choice questions effectively.

Describe the motion represented by a constant positive slope on a velocity versus time graph.

How do you determine the final velocity of a particle using the area under the acceleration graph?

What common mistakes should be avoided when calculating velocity from acceleration graphs?
