This discovery lab lets students discover how to interpret position vs. time and velocity vs. time graphs by experimenting with the virtual motion detector. They simply drag the caterpillar, and they see the resulting graph as soon as they release the mouse button. Eight example graphs let them see the essential features of both types of graphs, and the questions in the activity guides help them distinguish the two. Feel free to reproduce the activity guide below for your classroom.
