Lss Group 9 : Time and Speed

This video is Part 1.






In this video,we have showed how to use the mechanical stop-watch.The accuracy of the stop-watch is o.o1sec.

TIME
Notes on time:

1. Time is the duration of an event which is measured in seconds(s)

2.SI Unit : (s)

3.instruments used:

i) Mechanical stop-watch












ii)electronic stop-watch






iii) Hour-glass












SPEED
Notes on speed:
1.Speed is the measurement of Distance(m) over Time(s)
2.SI Unit : metre per second(m/s)
3.Other measurements includes miles/h , yards/min
4.Speed tells us how fast an object is moving , and it is a rat at which distance is covered overtime.
5.As an object may not be of constant speed throughout its motion , there would be a need to calculate is average speed.
6.Average speed is the measurement of total distance travelled over total time taken.
