Terminal velocity

4.5 Graphs and tables

Learning goals

•  Explain what terminal velocity is and how it works.

• Explain what is meant by a continuous variable and a discrete variable.

•  To know in what case to use a pie chart, bar chart or graph.

Terminal velocity – Exercise

Discrete variable

A variable which you can only express in whole numbers. 

Example: The number of goals in 

Continuos variable

A variable that can take any number.

Example: the temperature in a room.

Categoric variable.

A variable that is not expressed in numbers

Example: the names of players in a sports match.

Bar chart

Pie Chart

Exercise

1. In your notebook write down:

• Discrete variable
