Averaged speed is more commonly used and can be calculated by the formula speed = or v= (where v= speed or velocity, s= displacement or distance and t= time). Velocity time graphs are a common way of displaying data, when you have displacement and time data, using the velocity formula makes the 2 sets of data 1 set of more meaningful data (see figures 1, 2 and 3 below). ... The results for method B were surprisingly accurate and confirmed the theory that if an object with a velocity collides into a stationary object when the two objects have a mass which remains the same, both objects will con...
