Unit 3
In Unit 3 we are learning about acceleration. We did a lab today to further our learning about acceleration. We used this long board as shown above and a danger board for the lab and we timed how long it takes from each 5m increments. We tested each board two times and got the average time from each distance and graphed it on the Distance Vs. Time graph. The data for the skateboard has a steeper slope than the data for the danger board. This means that the velocity of the skateboard is higher. The graph showed a curved line for both data sets. When there is a curved line on a Distance vs. Time graph it represent acceleration of the object.

Good summery of what we did yesterday! You did a great job of describing what the graph showed and it was easy to understand.
ReplyDeleteI like your use of vocabulary and how your grammar is mediocre.
