Does a steep slope on a displacement vs time graph indicates a very large velocity?
Yes it does. Velocity = Displacement / Time. On a graph of displacement vs time, the slope is the velocity. Steeper slope = higher velocity, flatter slope = lower velocity.
What does a positive slope on a velocity and time graph mean in terms of motion?
Acceleration
What is the slope of constant velocity?
The Slope (which represents acceleration) of a constant velocity graph is Zero.
Does the slope of a position time graph represent average velocity or rate of change of velocity?
The tangent at a point on the position-time graph represents the instantaneous velocity. 1. The tangent is the instantaneous slope. 2. Rather than "average" velocity, the slope gives you "instantaneous" velocity. The average of the instantaneous gives you average velocity.
Velocity is the slope of a displacement vs time graph true or false?
False. The slope of a velocity vs time graph is acceleration
What does the diagonal slope of a velocity vs time graph mean?
no
Does a steep slope on a displacement vs time graph indicates a very large velocity?
Yes it does. Velocity = Displacement / Time. On a graph of displacement vs time, the slope is the velocity. Steeper slope = higher velocity, flatter slope = lower velocity.
How is velocity related to the angle of a slope?
Velocity is the slope of the position vs. time curve.
What does a positive slope on a velocity and time graph mean in terms of motion?
Acceleration
What is the slope of constant velocity?
The Slope (which represents acceleration) of a constant velocity graph is Zero.
Why does the slope of a velocity time graph give you acceleration?
if there is a slope, the velocity is either increasing or decreasing. This is acceleration.
If the velocity is constant describe th slope?
The slope of a time-distance chart would be a constant. The slope of a time-velocity chart would be 0.
What does mean slope is derived formula for speed?
If you are talking about a position vs time graph, the slope gives the average velocity. Velocity is displacement/change in time. (Change in position is displacement). Position is on the y axis and time is on the x axis. The slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = change in position/change in time = average velocity.
Does the slope of a position time graph represent average velocity or rate of change of velocity?
The tangent at a point on the position-time graph represents the instantaneous velocity. 1. The tangent is the instantaneous slope. 2. Rather than "average" velocity, the slope gives you "instantaneous" velocity. The average of the instantaneous gives you average velocity.
What physical property does the slope of a velocity time graph represent?
velocity.
What is the meaning of each of the following features of a velocity-time graph the slope of the line?
The slope of a line on a velocity-time graph is acceleration.
How does a slope affect velocity?
the steeper the slope, the faster the velocity because the pull of gravity will be applied more since the resistance will be lower.
