Measuring velocity

 Today we walked outside to measure the velocity of skytrain.  We found that a small segment of the fence was 1.52m .  Take a video of skytrain and, using screenshots, label the di and the df .  Determine the displacement and the elapsed time.   

1.  Draw a picture or cartoon which describes the motion of the train.  Label the fence, the train and the 1.52 section of the fence.

2.  Write down your data including the di, the df, the displacement and the time

3.  Calculate the velocity and show your work. 


Evaluation: /20

18-20. Your data is organized in screenshots and drawings on a word document or jpeg format. Your cartoon describes the motion.  Your work is organized and calculations are correct.  Your work is exceptional in communicating your data

14-17. Your data is organized in screenshots and drawings on a word document or jpeg format. Your cartoon describes the motion.  Your work is organized and calculations are correct.  Very well done

10-13. Your data is really good and you make a good start on the assignment.  It needs a little more drawing or picture documentation of the data that you are presenting

0-10. This is a good start but it is not complete
