Part 1: Motion with constant velocity
1. Through a web browser, navigate to http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/moving-man and start the simulation. There are two tabs for this simulation, called “Introduction” and “Charts.” For today’s activity, you will need only the “Introduction” tab. Play with the controls of the simulation to get used to the controls.
2. Reset all of the man’s values to zero.
3. Using the position slider, set the man to stand near the tree. Give him a velocity of 1.2 m/s (and an
acceleration of 0).
4. Click to start the man in motion until he hits the wall, then hit to stop recording.
5. Use the playback feature to answer these questions.
