Distance-Time Graph and Velocity Time Graph
Topic:
Grade &
Name:
Section:
I. Activity No. 2.1: Deal or No Deal (5 minutes)
II. Objective(s): At the end of the activity, you should be able to recall previous
knowledge on distance-time graphs learned in Grade 7 and acceleration from
the previous lesson.
III. Materials Needed: Worksheet, pen, and TV or projector
IV. Instructions:
Let's play a game called Deal or No Deal to review some concepts we learned in
Grade 7. It is a "Deal" if the statement is correct; otherwise, it is a "No Deal”.
For items 1 to 3, please refer to the distance-time graphs (position-time
graphs) below:
A B C
Is it a
Deal or
No
Deal?
1. Graph A means the object is not moving.
2. Graph B means the object’s motion is accelerating.
3. An object moving with constant speed and direction is not
accelerating.
4. The acceleration of an object that is speeding up is positive.
5. Uniform acceleration means velocity is constant.

Section:
I. Activity No. 2.3: Constructing and Interpreting a Distance-Time Graph (20
minutes)
II. Objective(s): At the end of the activity, you should be able to:
a. construct a distance-time graph, label its axes with appropriate
units and quantities, and add its titles; and
b. interpret the distance-time graph.
III. Materials Needed: graphing paper, worksheet, and pencil or pen
IV. Instructions:
1. Use the provided data to construct a distance-time graph. Interpret it after.
Data of the Distance Traveled by an Object in Uniform Acceleration:
Time (s) 0 1 2 3 4 5
Distance (m) 0 5 20 45 80 125
Steps:
1. 1. Prepare the graph paper.
2. 2. Label the axes: o X-axis: "Time (s)" ranging from 0 to 5 seconds.
o Y-axis: "Distance (m)" ranging from 0 to 140 meters.
3. 3. Choose a scale: o X-axis: 1 unit = 1 second.
o Y-axis: 1 unit = 20 meters.
4. 4. Plot the points: o At (0, 0): plot a point.
o At (1, 5): plot a point.
o At (2, 20): plot a point.
o At (3, 45): plot a point.
o At (4, 80): plot a point.
o At (5, 125): plot a point.
5. 5. Connect the points: o Draw a line smoothly connecting the points.
6. 6. Add a title o Title the graph “Distance-Time Graph for an Object in
Motion”.
