Velocity-time graphs show how the velocity (or speed) of a moving object changes with time. These graphs also show if the object is moving at a constant speed or accelerating, decelerating, or still.
Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...
In a distance-time graph, the gradient of the line is equal to the speed of the object. The greater the gradient (and the steeper the line) the faster the object is moving.
One of the most basic things students do in a physics lab is to collect data and use that to build a model. Most of these models come in the form of a mathematical function. But here is the problem.
One of the many awesome things about physics is you can study it anywhere. I’ll prove it with a fun problem that involves a cart and a ball. Not just any cart, but a cart that rolls along a table and ...
