Shaker's Motion Lab
1) Describe how your group created each of the graphs. Be sure to give specific details including direction and movements.
Graph 1.
Begin with a person in front of the motion detector, and walk straight back at a constant speed.
Graph 2.
Begin far away and walk toward the motion detector at a constant speed
Graph 3.
Begin in front of the motion detector and walk backwards and then forwards at a constant speed.
Graph 4.
Begin in front of the motion detector, walk straight, stay in a position, and then keep walking backwards.
Graph 5.
Start far away, walk fast towards the detector, stop for a few seconds, and slowly walk backwards.
Graph 6.
Walk rapidly backwards, stop at a position for a few seconds, and walk back to the motion detector at a medium speed
Graph 7.
Start a little away from the motion detector, and gradually increase your speed as you walk backwards.
Graph 8.
Put two hands in front of the motion detector, removing one after 2-3 seconds.
2) Which two graphs were the most difficult? Why were they difficult?
Graph 7th and 8th, because it was harder to form curved slopes and increased y-axis' in less than a second.
