Lab 01 – Velocity and Acceleration
Q1. Which color represents velocity?
Answer: Green
Q2. Which color represents acceleration?
Answer: Blue
Q3. Is the red ball speeding up or slowing down when the velocity and acceleration vec-
tors are pointing in the same direction?
Answer: Speeding up
Q4. Is the red ball speeding up or slowing down when the velocity and acceleration vec-
tors are pointing in opposite directions?
Answer: Slowing down
Q5. When you drag the red ball across the screen – from a stopped/standing position – in any direction, which vector shows up first? What does this mean in terms of the mo-
tion of the ball?
Answer: By dragging the red ball, I observe that its velocity increases, and by slowing the motion of the red ball then deceleration is produced, the deceleration vector is al-
ways opposite to the acceleration vector. Q6. In uniform circular motion, in which direction is the velocity vector pointing?
Answer: The velocity changes at every point due to a change in direction. The green ar-
row length is changing while the blue arrow remains constant. Q7. In uniform circular motion, in which direction is the acceleration vector pointing?
Answer: The acceleration remains constant. Q8: What is another example of a two-body system that this circular motion could repre-
sent?
Answer: The body’s speed is constant, but its velocity is not constant. This changing ve-
locity indicates the presence of an acceleration.
