What is the velocity at t = 5.5 s?
• All we know from the given data is the average velocity between t = 5.0 and t = 6.0 s.
• Measure the object’s position at a smaller time interval, like t = 5.4 s and t = 5.6 s.
• Better yet, use t = 5.49 s and t = 5.51 s.• The velocity at the instant t = 5.5 s is approximately equal to the
average velocity during a small time interval from t = 5.49 s to t = 5.51 s. But the best we can do with the given data is guess.

Instantaneous Velocity
• The velocity at an instant of time is called instantaneous velocity.
• It is approximately equal to the average velocity measured during a very small time interval.

Position vs. time graph
-Slope of a tangent line on an x vs. t graph is instantaneous velocity.
-Sign of slope (pos or neg) is direction of motion.
-How slope changes tells you whether it is speeding up or slowing down.

Velocity vs. time graph
-Slope of v vs. t graph is acceleration.
-acceleration is the rate that the object speeds up or slows down.
-if slope is constant, then the motion is characterized by constant acceleration

1. positive
2. negative
3. zero

Matching position and velocity graphs
1. Note what is being plotted in a given graph.
2. Describe the motion in words or with a diagram.
3. Sketch (or match) the graph that matches the motion diagram or verbal description of the motion.
