Unit D: Physics Prescribed Learning Outcomes (PLOs)

Chapter 12 – Displacement, Time and Velocity

Section 12.1 page 341- Distance and Time

o Define:

- time interval

- distance

Section 12.2 page 346 – Speed

o Use the formula to calculate the average speed, distance and time interval for an object in uniform motion, given appropriate data

(include a sample question and calculation)

Section 12.3 page352 - Graphing Distance and Time

o Analyse graphically the relationship between distance and time interval for an object traveling in uniform motion

(copy a graph from the text and analyse it)

Section 12.4 page 359 – Displacement and Velocity

o Define:

- displacement (change in position)

- time interval

- velocity

o Analyse graphically the relationship between displacement and time interval for an object traveling in uniform motion

(copy a graph from the text and analyze it)

o Use the formula to calculate the average velocity, displacement and time interval for an object in uniform motion, given appropriate data

(include a sample question and calculation)

o Design an conduct one or more experiments to determine the velocity of an object in uniform motion (eg. balls, skateboards, bicycles, canoes in still water)

Motion Project

Chapter 13 Acceleration

Section 13.1 page 373 – Accelerating Objects

o Define:

- positive acceleration

- negative acceleration

- zero acceleration

o Give examples of positive, negative and zero acceleration, including

- falling objects

- accelerating from rest

- slowing down or stopping

- uniform motion

o given initial velocity, final velocity and the time interval, calculate acceleration using the formulas as follows (e.g. for falling objects)

(include a sample question and calculation)

Chapter 13.2 page 380 – Graphing Acceleration

o Analyse graphically the relationship between velocity and time interval for an object traveling in uniform motion
