Displacement can be found by the area underneath the line of a velocity vs. time graph.

This area can be found by using a definite integral if you know calculus, or if not it can be found simply by counting squares, or finding the area of triangles etc.

Hope it helped :)

What is the physical meaning of the slope of the graph of displacement vs time?

The slope of that graph at each point is the speed at that instant of time.


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.)


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.


Slope of a displacement time graph?

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


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

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


Is displacement the slope of the velocity vs time graph?

False


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.


What does a steep slope on a displacement vs time graph indicate?

The slope of the function on a displacement vs. time graph is (change in displacement) divided by (change in time) which is just the definition of speed. A relatively steep slope indicates a relatively high speed.


Is velocity the slope of the displacement vs time graph true or false?

that is true


Is it true or false that Displacement is the slope of the velocity vs time graph?

It is false.

Time derivative of displacement which is... speed!


Does A steep slope on a displacement vs time graph indicates a large velocity?

Yes.
