Motion Detector Lab

My reflecion on the motion detector lab. You could take data points from the graphs made and apply them to the equasions we laened to find the variable that is not represented. To have zero acceleration and positive velocity because if you arrent going any faster but are still moving, you arrent going faster but you are still moving, giving you a positive velocity. The position and the velocity can be the same if you move away from the motion detector and aget faster at the same rate. Some of the graphs were bouncy because they we weren't moving at a consistent speed or acceleration. if the velocity is negative it means that you are moving towards the detector and if it is positive you are moving away.
