Science in school this week

this week in science, We only did tings about lab report on how we could find the normal speed that our object was moving at.

Our objective was to locate where in six meters would a fast car and a slow car, we took the speed of the fast car by measuring how long it took the car to travel six meters, then we divided the six meters by the seconds the time that it took the car to accomplish the six meters. The equation that we used was: Change in Position

Change in time

So, the fast car's speed came out to be 14.56 seconds over the distance of 6 meters.

The slow car's speed came out to be 27.6 seconds over 6 meters.

The fast car's speed came out to be 0.411 meters/seconds

The slow car's speed was 0.22 meters/seconds

Thats almost half the speed of the the fast car's speed.

So, we predicted that the the crash between the two cars shall take place somewhere in the six meters closer to the slow car.

Before we did this in class, we learnt what a slope was. It is the same thing as the speed. You calculate the slope by taking one point of the position and subtract the second point from the first point. Then divide that by the first point's time and subtract the second points time.
