Distance-Time Graphs Worksheet

On ONE sets of axes, plot the following tables of results from a motion experiment:

1)
t
(Sec)
0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35
D
(m)
0 4 4 4 4 4 4 4

2)
t
(Sec)
0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35
D
(m)
0 1 2 3 4 4 4 4

3)
t
(Sec)
0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35
D
(m)
0 2 4 6 8 8 8 8

When you have done this describe each graphs motion.

For periods of constant speed using the following pattern:
The object (then) travelled at a constant speed of _____m/s for _____ seconds covering a distance of _____metres.

For period when the object is stationary using the following pattern:
The object was (then) stationary for _____ seconds.

Then plot and describe the motion recorded in the table below:
t
(Sec)
0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80
D
(m)
0 1.3 2.6 4 4 4 6.9 10 10
