Motion Graphs Quiz
Comprehensive unlimited quiz on interpreting and matching kinematics graphs (x-t, v-t, a-t) for VCE Unit 2 Physics. Eight linked question types with three filtering modes: (1) Interpretation – given a single graph, identify the motion (constant velocity, rest, speeding up, slowing down); (2) Numerical – calculate velocity from x-t gradient, acceleration from v-t gradient, or displacement from v-t area (trapezium rule); (3) Graph matching – select the correct graph type that matches given motion (x-t → v-t, v-t → a-t, or description → x-t). Question types: (a) interpret x-t segment (identify motion from position graph), (b) interpret v-t segment (identify motion from velocity graph), (c) gradient of x-t equals velocity (read off and calculate), (d) gradient of v-t equals acceleration (read off and calculate), (e) area under v-t equals displacement or distance (signed or unsigned area via trapezium rule), (f) match x-t graph to correct v-t graph, (g) match v-t graph to correct a-t graph, (h) match verbal description to x-t graph. Real-time tracking: current streak (correct answers in a row), best streak achieved, score (correct/total attempted). Four-choice multiple choice with detailed worked explanations. Keyboard shortcuts: 1–4 to answer, Enter or Space to advance. Randomized question generation ensures variety; same question type avoids consecutive repeats. SVG graph rendering with grid, axes, highlights, and mini previews for matching questions. Teaches foundational kinematics: relationship between position, velocity, and acceleration; reading graphs; calculating rates of change; understanding motion descriptions.
