Here's another explanation of Vectors & Scalars
Khan Academy - Intro to Vectors & Scalars

Here's the Khan Academy explanation of average speed.

Here's one for solving for time using the velocity formula.

And another for solving for displacement using the velocity formula.

  1. For the lab assignment, how do you know what the unit is for the slope? And what kind of answer were you looking for for "What does each slope mean?"? Annd, what's the origin? Haha

  2. Remember slope is rise/run so the units of the slope will be the (units of the rise)/(units of the run).

    Think about what that slope represents. What happens as the independent variable changes?

    The origin is the (0,0) coordinate.

    Hope that helps!
