- Pupils can identify the key features of velocity time graphs
Contents
Specification References
- 1.5 interpret velocity-time graphs
- 1.6 determine acceleration from the gradient of a velocity-time graph
- 1.7 determine the distance travelled from the area between a velocity-time graph and the time axis.
Starter
Collect SPARK and motion sensor
Main Body of Lesson
- Pupils again attempt to recreate different shapes and describe what they've done.
- Have pupils measure out 1m and then move their hand/board from one end to the other at a a constant speed. They'll be able to find the area under the graph using the automatic function on the SPARK or by hand and should get a value ~1m. Repeat but twice as quick, should still get the same area as the distance travelled is the same.
