Motion Detector Lab

Today we used motion detectors to to do different expirments about acceleratin, speed, and position. I learned that if you moved at the same pace your velocity stays the same and the acceleration is 0. This sometimes confuses me and it interesting that even if your moving your acceleration can stay the same. I think it is really cool. Sometimes when we tried to match the line it would be hard and not as smooth. Lilly and I got pretty close to matching the lines but some were harder to match than others. The velocity was the hardest to match because I don't really know how fast I'm going.
