Understanding Position vs. Time Graphs: Analyzing Rest States of an Object

This resource explores position vs. time graphs of an object at rest, detailing its behavior at specific seconds. At 1 second, the object is stationary at 4 meters; at 2 seconds, it remains at the same position. The concept of being at rest implies no change in position, represented by a horizontal line on the graph. Through a series of questions and scenarios, readers learn to identify when the object is at rest, not moving, and how these conditions manifest in graph form. Utilize this guide for deeper insights into motion analysis.

  1. Position vs time graphs Of an object at rest

  2. Describe what the object is doing at 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, etc.? 5 m 4 m At 1 seconds the object is located 4 meters from the origin 3 m position 2 m 1 m 0 m 4 s 2 s 3 s 5 s 0 s 1 s time

  3. Describe what the object is doing at 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds etc.? 5 m 4 m At 2 seconds the object is located 4 meters from the origin 3 m position 2 m 1 m 0 m 4 s 2 s 3 s 5 s 0 s 1 s time

  4. Describe what the object is doing at 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds etc.? 5 m From 0 to 5 seconds the object is located 4 meters from the origin 4 m 3 m position 2 m 1 m 0 m 4 s 2 s 3 s 5 s 0 s 1 s time

  5. If an object is staying in the same position for a time interval than its… • at rest. • stopped. • not moving. • still. • Represented by a horizontal line on a position vs time graph

  6. Number your whiteboards from 1 to 3 and answer the question about the graphs Quiz tourself

  7. 1) When and where is the object at rest? 10m 8 m 6 m position 4 m 2 m 0 m 4 s 2 s 3 s 5 s 0 s 1 s time

  8. 2) When and where is the object not moving? 5 m 4 m 3 m position 2 m 1 m 0 m 8 s 4 s 6 s 10 s 0 s 2 s time

  9. 3) When and where is the object still? +3 m +2 m +1 m position 0m -1 m -2 m 20 s 10 s 15 s 25 s 0 s 5 s time

  10. * Answers

  11. 1) When and where is the object at rest? 10 m From 2 to 4 seconds the object is located 6 meters from the origin 8 m 6 m position 4 m 2 m 0 m 4 s 2 s 3 s 5 s 0 s 1 s time

  12. 2) When and where is the object not moving? From 0 to 4 seconds the object is not moving at 4 meters away 5 m 4 m From 8 to 10 seconds the object is not moving at 3 meters away 3 m position 2 m 1 m 0 m 8 s 4 s 6 s 10 s 0 s 2 s time

  13. 3) When and where is the object still? +3 m From 15 to 25 seconds the object is located -1 meters from the origin +2 m +1 m position 0m -1 m -2 m 20 s 10 s 15 s 25 s 0 s 5 s time

  14. * How did you do?

  15. What would a position- vs- time graph look like of your desk as measured from the chalkboard -for the entire class period? • How would your graph be similar, different from your classmates?
