Flip book Acceleration Activity

You have a book of “sticky notes” and you will be using it to build a flip book that displays the constant velocity or constant acceleration of an object. It is recommended that you select a simplified object (ball, stick figure, car, etc) as you will have to draw it multiple times. You will draw a pictorial representation of the motion.

You will use a provided data set to initially draw the motion. After you have drawn your motion you will meet with other group members and look for patterns in your data sets and motion drawings. You will look for similarities and differences.

After discussing your drawings, work with a partner to draw a position vs time or velocity vs time graph for your motion (your choice). This graph should be drawn on each page, just as you did for the motion of the object to build the flip book. After everyone has completed drawing their graphs, compare and contrast your flip books again.
