| Title | Moving Man: Simple Acceleration |
| Description | This activity for 9th graders is aimed at having students understand motion graphs involving simple acceleration and deceleration. We use only positive velocity for this activity. Students will be able to: (i) describe how a person moved by looking at motion graphs; and (ii)sketch the motion graphs when the person's motion is described. |
