Graphing Practice
Master motion graphs! Practice calculating speed, identifying constant motion, and interpreting distance-time charts.
Use this Graph for questions 1-4. Distance in meters and time seconds.What is the average speed from 4 – 8 seconds? Show work using the GUESS method. G d= 6-2= 4m t=8-4=4sU s=?E s=d s=4m s=1m Use the graph above to answer this question. What is the average speed of this graph? Show working using the GUESS method. Use the graph above to answer this question. How many times is the object at rest? 1 2 3 4 At what time intervals is the object moving at constant speed? 0 - 2 2 - 4 4 - 8 8 - 9 a and b b and c a and d a and c Use your finger or stylus to draw what constant speed would look like on the graph below. Use this graph below for 5 - 7. Distance is in meters and time is in seconds.Which statement best describes to motion in this graph? Constant Speed At Rest Speeding Up Use the graph above to answer this question. Explain your answer. Why did you choose the answer you choose? Use the graph above to answer this question. What is the average speed of this object? Show your work using the GUESS method. ABWhich graph is moving at a faster constant speed? A B Neither Explain your answer to the above question. How did you know it was moving faster? Which of the following best describes the motion of this object? Fast constant speed Slow constant speed At rest Use this graph for the next 3 questions. Describes the objects average speed from 0 – 5 seconds. Show your work using the GUESS method. Use the graph above to answer this question. Describes the objects average speed from 5 - 10 seconds. Show your work using the GUESS method. Which statement below best describes the motion in the graph above? Going up a hill at a steady constant speed, then going down the hill at a steady constant speed. Going to the grocery store at a constant speed , then realizing I forgot something and turning around to return home. Both stories could fit this graph. Use the graph above to answer the next 2 questions. What is the average speed of this object? Show your work using the GUESS method. Use the graph above to answer this question. Which of the following describes the speed of the object? At rest Constant speed Accelerating (Speeding up) Use the graph above to answer this question. Which of the following best describes the motion of this object? Moving away from the starting point Returning to the starting point. Not moving. Create a story to go along with this graph. Use this graph to answer the next 5 questions. What is the average speed between 2 - 4 seconds. Use the GUESS method to show your work. Use this graph above to answer this questions. What is the average speed between 4 - 7 seconds. Use the GUESS method to show your work. Use the graph above to answer this question. In which time interval is the object traveling faster? 2 - 4 0 - 2 4 - 7 Use the graph above to answer this question. At which time interval is the object at rest? 0 - 2 2 - 4 4 - 7 Use the graph above to answer this question. What is the average speed of this object? Show your work using the GUESS method. Use your finger or stylus to draw what at rest would look like on the graph below. Use your finger or stylus to draw what "returning to start" would look like on the graph below. Use your finger or stylus to draw what "speeding up" would look like on the graph below. Use your finger or stylus to draw what "slowing down" would look like on the graph below.
