Ladybug Motion 2D
|
Topics
- Position
- Velocity
- Acceleration
Description
Learn about position, velocity and acceleration vectors. Move the ladybug by setting the position, velocity or acceleration, and see how the vectors change. Choose linear, circular or elliptical motion, and record and playback the motion to analyze the behavior.
Sample Learning Goals
- Draw motion vectors (position, velocity, or acceleration) for an object moving in 2D. Interpret position, velocity, and acceleration vectors for an object moving in 2D.
- Explain how velocity affects position.
- Explain how acceleration affects velocity.
- Explain why the velocity and acceleration vectors behave as they do for linear, circular, and elliptical motion.
