A student writes, "A bird that is diving for prey has a speed of -10 m / s." What is wrong with the student's statement? What has the student actually described? Explain.
Kinematics graphs are great for showing how a quantity depends on time. For example, an acceleration-versus-time graph shows how acceleration depends on time. a. Based on your experience with two other kinematics graphs (position- and velocity-versus-time), describe how to plot an acceleration-versus-time graph. b. Describe how all three kinematics graphs are connected by slopes of tangent lines (derivatives). c. If a particles acceleration is positive and constant, what is the shape of the curve in each of the three kinematics graphs?
