What does the slope under the curve of a displacement versus time reveal?
There is no such thing as a "slope under the curve", so I assume that you mean "slope of the curve". If the curve is d vs. t, where d is displacement and t is time, then the slope at any given point will yield (reveal) the velocity, since velocity is defined as the rate of change of distance with respect to time. Mathematically speaking, velocity is the first derivative of position with respect to time. The second derivative - change in velocity with respect to time - is acceleration.
What does the slope of a tangent to the curve of a velocity-time graph measure?
the slope of a tangent to the curve of a V vs T graph is acceleration at that point in time. the derivative of the function for the V vs T graph would be the function for acceleration at any given time
What does the slope of a graph potential difference vs current represent?
resistance of a material
How do you find maximum speed in a time position graph?
You find the point(s) at which the slope of the curve is greatest.
What does the slope of the tangent to the curve on a velocity-time graph measure?
it measures the magnitude of acceleration, but it can't tell you the direction of the acceleration.
What is the nature of the slope of the voltage-resistance characteristics for the carbon lamp?
for Tungsten lamp the slope of the curve is positive where for carbon it is negative
The derivative finds the of a curve?
The gradient of the tangents to the curve.
Explain quantitatively why the maximum power transfer curve is not symmetrical about the point where the source resistance equals load resistance?
when we look at the curve ,, we can see that before the peak point curve has greater slope as compared to the slope after the peak point .. the reason is PL is given as I^2RL ,,, current is a squared term here . before peak point current is greater so overall change in power is much greater but after peak point RL is greater and current is less now the load resistance is not a squared term... so slope will be less. therefore the curve is not symetrical
What does the slope of voltage-current curve represent?
It depends. If voltage is drawn along the horizontal axis, then the slope at any point on the graph represents the reciprocal of resistance at that point. If current is drawn along the horizontal axis, then the slope at any point on the graph represents the resistance at that point.
What determines the slope of IS Curve?
mainly the slope of Is curve depends on ; -the slope of investment schedule -the size of the multiplier
How do you find the slope of a graph if it is a curve?
You find the slope of the tangent to the curve at the point of interest.
What is the slope of a curve?
Slope of a Curve A number which is used to indicate the steepness of a curve at a particular point.The slope of a curve at a point is defined to be the slope of the tangent line. Thus the slope of a curve at a point is found using the derivative
How do you calculate slope of a curve?
If the curve is on the xy-plane, finding an expression for dy/dx will give you the slope of a curve at a point.
What is the incremental resistance obtained from the diode equation?
The incremental resistance of a diode is the inverse of the slope of the V-I curve at the operating point.
How do you find the slope of an Indifference curve?
You find the tangent to the curve at the point of interest and then find the slope of the tangent.
How the slope of a curved line at a point can be found?
The slope of a curved line at a point is the slope of the tangent to the curve at that point. If you know the equation of the curve and the curve is well behaved, you can find the derivative of the equation of the curve. The value of the derivative, at the point in question, is the slope of the curved line at that point.
Define and explain Negative resistance?
Plot a V-I curve for an ordinary resistor and you'll get a straight line with positive slope: as current goes up, so does voltage drop across the component. The V-I curve for some semiconductors features a region of negative slope. When the device is operating in this region, it exhibits negative resistance, which can be extremely useful when designing stable feedback systems.
