Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 6.11 Create and Interpret Distance Time Graphs skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Which model best shows how to create and interpret a distance-time graph for motion?
Aa graph with time on the x-axis, distance on the y-axis, plotted data points, and a line showing how distance changes over time
Ba pie chart that compares categories of distance
Ca list of colors used during the experiment
Dan unlabeled sketch with no scale
Solution & Explanation:A strong distance-time model includes correctly labeled axes, plotted data, and a line or segments that show how the distance changes as time passes.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Which student explanation shows the best understanding of how to create a distance-time graph from a table?
Aput distance on the x-axis, time on the y-axis, and plot the points in any order
Bput time on the x-axis, distance on the y-axis, plot each ordered pair, and connect the points in time order when the motion is continuous
Cuse a bar graph because tables never become line graphs
Dchoose any labels as long as the numbers fit
Solution & Explanation:A correct method uses time on the x-axis, distance on the y-axis, ordered pairs from the table, and lines that follow the time order when the motion is continuous.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Use the graph shown. A dashed gap appears between 3 and 5 seconds because no measurements were taken. What is the safest conclusion?
Athe object's exact distances between 3 and 5 seconds are unknown
Bthe object definitely stopped between 3 and 5 seconds
Cthe object definitely moved backward between 3 and 5 seconds
Dthe graph must be wrong
Solution & Explanation:A gap with missing measurements means the exact values in that interval are not known, so you should not assume what happened there.
