What is the velocity of the object
at 6 seconds?

d (cm)

 

 

 

Step 1 - Draw a tangent line at the time you want to find the velocity

d (cm)

 

 

 

 

Step 2 - Find the SLOPE of the tangent line (Slope = Velocity)

distance (cm)

 

  Slope of tangent = ∆d/∆t
= Velocity @ 6 sec.

= (2.5 m - .5m)/(8.8 sec - 4 sec)

 

 = .4 m/s
