INTRODUCTION TO PHYSICS WLP 2025-26

September 5th A and 8th B

1. I can analyze a graph to determine the speed/velocity of an object.

2. I can analyze a graph to determine whether an object is accelerating or not.

3. I can determine when an object is accelerating or not

4. I can accurately measure speed within a system.

5. I can describe motion using math.

6. I can compare the motion within two different systems using mathematical terms.

Do Now:

Can you manipulate equations? (Paper, Keep it in you're notes)
