1bMovement and position

Syllabus objectives

• 1.3plot and explain distance−time graphs
• 1.4know and use the relationship between average speed, distance moved and time taken: taken time moved distancespeed average =
• 1.5practical: investigate the motion of everyday objects such as toy cars or tennis ballsPractical
• 1.6know and use the relationship between acceleration, change in velocity and time taken: taken time velocity in changeonaccelerati = t uva )( −=
• 1.7plot and explain velocity−time graphs
• 1.8determine acceleration from the gradient of a velocity−time graph
• 1.9determine the distance travelled from the area between a velocity−time graph and the time axis
• 1.10use the relationship between final speed, initial speed, acceleration and distance moved: (final speed)2 = (initial speed)2 + (2 × acceleration × distance moved) v2 = u2 + (2 × a × s)
