When learning motion in 1D, we learned how to estimate the position of a moving object by just using the time of that same moving object. And here are key Ideas that we used during this work.
Key Idea 1: The slope of a position time graph tells us about an objects velocity. Key Idea 2: The slope of a velocity time graph tells us about an object's acceleration. Key Idea 3: The area under a velocity time graph (bound by axis and line) is equal to the displacement of the object.
Motion Story: A man drives to pick up his son (negative position) from school, then gets gas (zero position), later goes home (positive position).
