Position - Time Diagrams

1. How many seconds has elapsed in diagram 1? _________________
2. How far did the object travel from the origin? _________________
3. What is the distance traveled? _________________
4. Complete this table for each time segment in diagram 1:

   Beginning time - Ending time	Time interval	Distance traveled in this interval	Speed
   0 to 2 secs
   2 to 3 secs
   3 to 4 secs
   4 to 5 secs
   5 to 8 secs
   8 to 10 secs
   0 to 10 secs

5. Use the first six speed values from the table above, add them together and divide by six. Show your calculations. Record that number here ______________.
    
6. What does that number represent?
    
7. Why doesn't that number equal the last (7^th) speed calculation in the table?

5. Sketch a Position-time diagram showing the path of two objects. One object is moving at twice the speed of the other object.
