What does the slope of mass vs weight graph represent?
The slop of a line which represents mass over volume would give you density.
What does a slope of force vs displacement graph represent?
A curve of a force F, vs displacement x (F vs x), represents the magnitude of a force as it is producing a displacement of a body. The area under the curve froma point x1, to point x2, represents the work done by the force;W =⌠FdxIf the force is constant from x1 to x2, then; W =F∙(x2 - x1)The slope of the curve at a given value of x, (dF/dx),tells us how the force F isvarying with displacement x at that point.For the case of a constant force, the value of the slope is zero, (dF/dx=0),meaning that the force is not varying as the displacement takes place.
The amount of space something occupies is called?
The answer is the VOLUME
How is the density different from mass and volume?
Mass is the amount of matter, volume is the amount of space, and density uses both, it is mass / volume.
What is anything that does has mass and volume?
matter is what has volume and mass also occupies space. It exists in three state namely: solid- has mass, volume and shape, Liquid- has volume and mass, and Gas- has volume and mass too.
What does the slope of mass vs weight graph represent?
The slop of a line which represents mass over volume would give you density.
What physical property does the slope of a velocity-time graph represent?
AnswerWhen the mass of a material is plotted against volume, the slope of the line is the density of the material.
When can the slope of a graph represent density-?
When the vertical axis represents "number of things" and the horizontal represents "volume of the thing"---slope is change in vertical over change in horizontal, so units of the slope would be "number/volume", which is density.
How are slope of the line and density of the material related?
Density is the slope of the line. density = mass/volume = constant. Since mass and volume have a linear relationship, then that constant is also the slope of the line on a graph of a comparison of mass to volume ratios.
How do you graph mass vs volume?
Mass vs Volume graphs have a positive slope and and y intercept of approximately zero
What type of data must be plotted on a graph for the slope of the line to represent density?
Density is defined as mass/volume, and since slope is rise/run, with the rise being the y-axis and the run the x-axis, mass should be the y-axis and volume the x-axis. For example, you would put grams on the y-axis and ml on the x-axis.
What is the relationship between gravitational force and mass for objects near the surface of earth when the slope of the graph is equal?
The answer depends on the slope of which graph.
Why does a slope of mass over volume also identify the density?
because the density is defined to be the mass over the volume. the slope is just a math term used to define such a relation.
Why mass and volume measurements for any sample of liquid should fall along the graph line?
mass and volume measurements for any sample liquid should fall along the graph line because liquids have a constant density. Density is mass over volume. Mass equals density which is a constant time volume.
What does the ratio mass divided by volume represent?
Density
What value should theoretically be obtained for the intercept on a graph of mass vs volume HINT The intercept corresponds to zero mass and zero volume?
zero
What does the slope on a force vs mass graph represent?
Let us suppose we are plotting y vs x and obtain a straight line. Then we pick a set of two coordinates, x1,y1 and x2,y2 The slope, M, is then given by the equation M (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) If we apply this to a force vs mass graph, we obtain the expression M (F2-F1)/(m2-m1),but F ma according to Newton's second law, where a is the acceleration, which leads to (m2a2-m1a1)/(m2-m1), but if a2 a1 a, as it will if the line is straight, then M a(m2-m1)/(m2-m1) a, so the slope, M, of your graph is acceleration.
