Activity for practicing calculation of y-intercepts for graphs with a false origin. This worksheet includes five graphs with lines of best fit already plotted. A student needs to draw the gradient triangle, determine the gradient and then use y = mx + c to determine the value of the intercept. Pages with solutions for all graphs are included in the document.
The graphs cover a range of topic areas in physics (free-fall, Hooke’s Law, wave intensity, mass-spring oscillation and capacitor discharge). But since a student only needs to determine values for the gradient and intercept students do not need to be familiar with the topic in order to tackle the tasks.
Suitable for AQA and OCR Physics A AS-Level and A-Level specifications.
(7407, 7408, H156, H556)
This worksheet is great for home learning since it has solutions to all questions included in the document and it is part of a series that gradually builds up a range of graphing techniques.
