Mr. Andersen shows you how to interpret a position vs. time graph for an object with constant velocity. The slope of the line is used to find the velocity. A phet simulation is also included. In the 2nd half you are shown how to read a position vs. time graph to determine the velocity of an object. Objects that are accelerating are covered in this podcast. Mr Anderson also introduces the tangent line (or the magic pen).
