In the distances vs. time graph for slow constant velocity buggy vs. faster constant velocity buggy, both data represent similar linear lines. For instances both buggy start picking up distances at 0.6 seconds and then from there both buggy continue to cover more distance at different pace as time continue. Not onces, did either buggy stop or loses distances which help create the linear line. The differences between the two linear line is that the faster constant velocity buggy has a steeper slope than the slower constant velocity buggy. This mean that the faster constant speed velocity covers more distances compare to the slower constant speed velocity at the same amount of time. For example, in 2.0s, the fast buggy covers around 0.64m and …show more content…

time graph for a slow constant velocity buggy vs. a faster constant velocity buggy, both line shape is represented by a horizontal line. The horizontal lines shows how the velocity of both buggy is at constant speed throughout the measured times because the line does not speed up like a exponential line. For example at 0.8s the faster constant speed buggy is at 0.4m/s and the slower constant speed buggy is at 0.2m/s. Than at 2.6s, the faster constant speed buggy is still at 0.4m/s while the slower constant speed buggy is also still at 0.2m/s. This reveals how, velocity remains the same throughout time. The differences between the two horizontal line is that the faster constant speed buggy has a steeper slope than the slower constant speed buggy. This is because, the faster constant speed buggy has a slope of 0.09m/s/s which means it travels in a faster velocity while the slower constant speed buggy has a slope of 0.05m/s/s and by having a smaller slope it travels at a slower velocity. In conclusion, despite the fact that both buggies have the same horizontal line representing its data, the faster constant speed buggy travels at a faster velocity compare to the slower constant speed buggy because it have a bigger slope by
