Uniform Velocity and Acceleration

The document explains uniform velocity as the motion of an object at a constant speed in a specific direction, represented by a straight line on a distance-time graph. It also covers acceleration, defined as the rate of change of velocity, which can be positive or negative, and is depicted by a curved line on a distance-time graph. Additionally, the document provides insights on interpreting distance-time graphs for both uniform motion and acceleration.

UNIFORM VELOCITY

AND
ACCELERATION
RECALL
GRADED RECITATION
UNIFORM VELOCITY
is when an object moves in a
constant direction and covers
equal distances in equal time
interval.
The rate of change of an object's
position over time.
UNIFORM VELOCITY
Earth’s Rotation
Earth’s Revolution
Clock Hands
Fan Blades
Pendelum
Train
ACCELERATION
The rate of change of an object's
velocity over time.
Acceleration can be positive or
negative, depending on whether
it adds to or subtracts from the
current velocity
ACCELERATION
Apple falling
Orbiting of moon on earth
Car stopped at traffic lights

UNIFORM VELOCITY
AND
ACCELERATION
UNIFORM
VELOCITY
Uniform velocity: characterized by
motion at a constant speed in a
direction.
Distance-time graph: a straight line
with a positive slope, indicating that
the distance increases at a constant
rate over time.
The slope of this line reflects the
speed of the object in motion.
ACCELERATING
MOTION
Acceleration: any change in an object's
velocity, including increases and
decreases in speed as well as changes
in direction
Distance-time graph: curves upwards,
showing that the distance covered
increases at a non-constant rate.
This curve can be steep or gentle
depending on the rate of acceleration.
INTERPRETING DISTANCE-TIME GRAPHS

For uniform motion, the graph is a straight line,


indicative of a constant speed.
For accelerating objects, the distance-time graph is
presented using curved lines.
In interpreting distance-time graphs, it is assumed
that rightward motion is the positive direction while
leftward motion is the negative direction.
