A displacement time graph is a graph that consists of an x and y axis using displacement, by time.

How do you get displacement from a displacement graph?

To get displacement from a displacement graph, just look at the Y- axis for the particular time (displacement versus time). For the displacement graph, the Y-axis is usually displacement.


The slope of a displacement-time graph is?

The slope at each point of a displacement/time graph is the speed at that instant of time. (Not velocity.)


What equals the displacement on a velocity-time graph?

Displacement is the area under the v-t graph.


Slope of a displacement time graph?

It is the instantaneous speed in the direction in which the displacement is measured.


What does displacement divided by time give you?

The Average Velocity on a position time graph or a velocity time graph.


What is the condition of the position-time graph when the velocity-time graph passes through zero?

As, in the velocity-time graph, curves passes through zero means 'when time is zero velocity is zero'. Velocity is time derivative of displacement. So displacement is maximum or minimum when time is zero in position-time graph.


What variable is placed on the x axis in a displacement time graph?

It is time.


Velocity is the slope of a displacement vs time graph true or false?

False. The slope of a velocity vs time graph is acceleration


Can you tell from a displacemnt-time graph wheather an object is stationary?

Of course yes. An object is stationary when the graph is horizontal in a displacement-time graph.


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.


Is the displacement time graph of a body moving with uniform velocity always a straight line?

A displacement vs. time graph of a body moving with uniform (constant) velocity will always be a line of which the slope will be the value of velocity. This is true because velocity is the derivative (or slope at any time t) of the displacement graph, and if the slope is always constant, then the displacement will change at a constant rate.


Is displacement the slope of the velocity vs time graph?

False
