Mission KG7 Interpreting Velocity-Time Graphs 2
Mission KG7 pertains to velocity-time graphs. You must use observations of the shape and slope to infer information about the velocity and acceleration of the object. The mission consists of 30 questions organized into 10 Question Groups. You must answer one question from each Question Group to complete the mission. The learning outcomes for this mission are ...
Learning Outcomes
- The student should be able to use an understanding of the shape and slope of a velocity-time graph to extract information about the velocity of an object.
- The student should be able to use an understanding of the shape and slope of a velocity-time graph to extract information about the acceleration of an object.
