Move the cursor to show that car has moved out of screen. | Notice that car has moved out of the screen, but it is still in motion. |
Point to the grey digital clock. | This is indicated by grey digital clock.
This clock shows the instantaneous time of the moving car. |
At the bottom point to x and v values. | Observe that, the values of x and v are changing continuously.
It means that the car is in uniform motion. And it will continue to be in motion until an external force is applied. This is due to Newton's first law of motion. |
Click on Pause button >> uncheck Slow motion check-box. | Click on the Pause button and uncheck the Slow motion check-box. |
Point to the Pause button. | Let’s assume that by clicking Pause button we have applied an external force on the car. |

Move the cursor to show the straight line. Point to the time axis of acceleration. |
Observe the Acceleration v/s time graph.
It shows a straight line parallel to the time axis. As time changes acceleration remains constant. |
Point to Velocity v/s time graph
point to the pink line. |
Observe the Velocity v/s time graph.
Note that velocity increases linearly with time. |
Point to Position v/s time graph. | Look at the Position v/s time graph.
This graph is exponentially increasing, due to the change in position and velocity of the car. |
Cursor on the interface. | Let us verify the values of position and velocity using equations of motion. |
Slide Number 6
Equations of Motion v = v0 + at
x0 and x are the initial and final positions. |
Here are the Equations of motion. |
Slide Number 7
Tabular column. |
We will note the measured and calculated values in the table. |
Point to red and green barrier. | Next we will use both green and red barrier to measure position and velocity. |
Click >> drag the green barrier to 15 m. | Click and drag the green barrier to 15 m. |
Drag the red barrier to 40 m. | Similarly drag the red barrier to 40 m. |
Click on the Start button >> Pause when it touches the green barrier. | Click on the Start button and then Pause when it touches the green barrier. |
Point to position and velocity values. | Note that the App has measured the values of position and velocity. |
Slide Number 8
Equations of Motion v = v0 + at = 5 + 2 * 1.531 =8.06 m/s |
Let us calculate velocity using the first equation of motion.
Substitute the values of acceleration, time and initial velocity shown in the App in the equation. 8.06 m/s is the calculated value of the velocity. |
x = x0 + v0 t + 1/2at2
= 5 + 5 * 1.531 + 1/2 * 2 * (1.531)2 = 14.99 m. |
Let us calculate the position using the second equation of motion.
Similarly substitute the values shown in the App. 14.99 m is the calculated value of the position. |
Point to the value of position in the App. | Observe that the values of position and velocity are approximately equal to the measured values. |
Slide Number 9
