Exploriments: Linear Motion - Area under Speed and Velocity Curves app for iPhone and iPad

This Exploriments Motion App lets you explore how distance traveled by a body is equal to the area under the speed-time curve and displacement is equal to area under the velocity-time curve. You can analyze different types of speed-time curves and velocity-time curves and understand how to determine the distance and displacement. Each activity includes exercises that can be repeated many times with varying scenarios.

The Exploriments Series of interactive simulation-based tools makes conceptual learning in science an engaging and insightful experience. Visit www.exploriments.com to know more.


Activities:

Area under Speed Curve for Constant Speed
