Learning Goals:
Students will be able to:
•Use free body diagrams to draw position,
velocity, acceleration and force graphs and vice
versa
•Explain how the graphs relate to one another.
•Given a scenario or a graph, sketch all four
graphs
1. A car is traveling along a
road. Its acceleration is recorded
as a function of time.
