Unit 3-Acceleration

Note: For this example, I will be using the measurement of notes per second.

From the moment I begin to play this piece on the piano, my fingers (on my right hand) are moving at a constant rate of about 1 note per second (the first line) for about 16 seconds. As I move on, the speed suddenly changes as my fingers move at about a speed of 5 notes per second for about 24 seconds. This sudden change in speed is called acceleration.

  1. It's interesting that you related this to music instead of cars like I did. Could you teach me to play the piano?

  3. This is so cool! I love your creativityness when it comes to things, you always think out of the box and make it so much easier to understand. I would have never thought of relating it to a piano, good job!
