Modeling Acceleration

http://www.physicsclassroom.com/mmedia/kinema/pvpa.cfm

I think this model is good because it is similar to what we have been doing in class with motion detector. This model shows three graphs: a position time graph, a velocity time graph and an acceleration time graph. I can tell the differences between different accelerations with this graph because it shows how the accerleration depends on how the velocity changes. If the velocity is constant, the accerleation is going to different and if the acceleration is constant, the velocity is going to be different.
