1.
Sketch a prediction of the velocity vs. time graph that corresponds to the position vs. time graph below.
a.
Insert a picture of your predicted graph of velocity vs. time here:
b.
Generate a graph of velocity vs. time with your simulation. Copy/paste your
graph here:
c.
Insert a print screen of your iOLab software window with graphs of position vs. time and velocity vs. time here. Describe what you did to make the iOLab move
the way it did to produce the graphs.
I let the iOlab roll forward at a constant velocity.
d.
Does your prediction of velocity vs. time agree with your recorded velocity vs. time of the iOlab? Explain why or why not.
Yes, my prediction of velocity vs. time match with my recorded velocity vs. time of the iOlab. My prediction of velocity vs. time is a straight line over the x-axis, and iOlab graph is overall a straight line over the x-axis, too. The little deviation of the iOlab graph line not a complete
straight line, is due to my simulation of not keeping the car at a complete constant speed, but the overall graph result is very close to a straight line.

Yes, my prediction of velocity vs. time matches with my recorded velocity vs. time of the iOlab.
My prediction of velocity vs. time is a straight line below the x-axis, and iOlab graph is overall a straight line below the x-axis, too.

the way it did to produce the graphs. HINT: what if the iOLab moves on a ramp?
Construct a small ramp for the iOLab to move on.
I construct a small ramp to let iOLab move on. At first, let it rest at the horizontal end of the ramp, then push it up the ramp with gradually increased velocity.
