This video discusses how to use the linked videos below to collect data for the Toy Car Lab. In this lab, we are investigating the relationship between position and time for an object moving in a straight line at a constant speed.
Below are the videos that can be used to collect the data described in this video. The different videos include cars moving at different speeds and in different directions.

DATA COLLECTION:
Instructions for Data Collection: youtu.be/zUioSFJIhnM
1. Click on the gear icon in the YouTube video player to change the “Playback speed”. Select a playback speed of 0.25. This will make it easier to measure the position at specific times or measure the time at specific positions.
2. Record the initial position and time of the car. The position of the car should be measured from the front of the car.
3. Record 6 - 8 more positions and times throughout the video. Make sure to collect a wide range of data (from the beginning to the end of the video clip).
4. Graph the position values on the y-axis and the time values on the x-axis for further data analysis.
DATA ANALYSIS: The following video discusses how to graph and analyze the position and time collected from this video. The video also discusses the general process of writing the equation for a linear relationship.
