Physics can feel inscrutable to students; this lesson helps them understand a graphing problem by analyzing their own ...

One must get the methods of measuring position and time working together if we are to obtain a reliable representation of motion. To that end we have developed a unique system composed of elements ...

Acceleration close accelerationThe rate of change in speed (or velocity) is measured in metres per second squared. Acceleration = change of velocity ÷ time taken. is the rate of change of velocity. It ...

Most motion controllers determine a motion profile after the user enters certain points along the path. The real question is this: What path does the motor take between points? There are a number of ...

Velocity-time graphs show how the velocity (or speed) of a moving object changes with time. These graphs also show if the object is moving at a constant speed or accelerating, decelerating, or still.
