Blog Post #3 (Olympics Lab)

During the week, we studied the relationships between distance and time through our Physics Olympics Lab. We observed the relationships by looking at four different activities: bunny hop, balance walking, gentle jog, and sprint. Each activity was timed and done for a 50 meter distance. It was concluded that as the distance increased so did the time it took to cover the distance. This concept is relatable to our kinematics unit because it is the study of movement and we move in different ways everyday. This is the razor scooter I've had since I was in 1st grade. Every time my distance increased, so did the time it took to cover the area. This scooter has covered a great distance in its lifetime. As you can see, by the missing cushion on the handle bar, my scooter is pretty worn out. I've used it for everything; to get to softball practice, to ride to my uncles house, and to ride just for fun. After all of that, she's still going strong. See mom, I told you I'd use it more than once (:
