Hand-Waving Exercises

The graphs below are plots of position and velocity vs. time. With your partners, move your hands to simulate the data in the graphs. For each graph, there should be a handwaver, a skeptic, and a scribe (to describe the motion). Label each description with the graph number and a sketch of the graph. Rotate roles after each graph.
