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 can you use the graph of velocity versus time to estimate the acceleration of the ball?
The acceleration of the ball can be estimated by calculating the slope of the velocity versus time graph. If the graph is a straight line, the slope represents the acceleration. The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration. If the graph is curved, the instantaneous acceleration can be estimated by finding the slope of the tangent line at a specific point on the curve.
How is deceleration represented on a velocity per time graph?
It is radial the velocity in a direction towards or away from a fixed point of reference (the origin) at a given time. The velocity time graph takes no account of motion in a direction across the radial direction.
How would one determine Acceleration from a V-t Graph?
Acceleration can be determined from a velocity-time graph by calculating the slope of the line on the graph. The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration. If the graph is curved, acceleration can be calculated by finding the tangent to the curve at a specific point.
What is the slope of the line tangent to the curve on a position-time graph at a specific time?
The slope of the tangent line in a position vs. time graph is the velocity of an object. Velocity is the rate of change of position, and on a graph, slope is the rate of change of the function. We can use the slope to determine the velocity at any point on the graph. This works best with calculus. Take the derivative of the position function with respect to time. You can then plug in any value for x, and get the velocity of the object.
Is the steepness of a line on a motion graph is called a slope?
"Slope" is the steepness of the line on any graph.
What is the slope of a graph line?
it is impossible to tell the slope of a line graph without proper points to evaluate from.
How do you tell whether a graph shows a constant or variable rate of change?
The slope of each point on the line on the graph is the rate of change at that point. If the graph is a straight line, then its slope is constant. If the graph is a curved line, then its slope changes.
The graph of which line has a slope of 2?
The graph of the equationy = 2x + any numberis a straight line with a slope of 2.
The slant of a line on a graph is called?
the slope.
What is the slope of a line on distance time graph?
acceleration
Is the first derivative of a function is a constant then its graph is?
A line. The derivative of a function is its slope. If the slope is a constant then the graph is a line.
What is a position versus time-squared graph?
If you have an object that is accelerating, then a position vs. time graph will give you a parabola which is pretty but is very hard to measure anything on - especially hard to measure the acceleration (or the curve of the line). If however, you graph position vs. time squared, you get a nice straight line (if you have constant acceleration) and therefore, you can measure the slope and get the acceleration. Remember: x = 1/2at2 so if you graph x vs. t2 then the slope = 1/2 a or a = 2*slope No matter what you are measuring, you always want to graph a straight line. hope that helps
What happends to the graph of a line when the slope is negative?
A straight line graph with negative slope slants downward from left to right.
If the velocity is constant describe the slope of the graph on a position vs. time graph.?
If velocity is constant, the slope of the graph on a position vs. time graph will be a straight line. The slope of this line will represent the constant velocity of the object.
How is acceleration obtained from a velocity line graph?
Acceleration can be obtained from a velocity line graph by calculating the slope of the line at a particular point. The slope of the line represents the rate of change of velocity, which is the acceleration. The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration.
The slope of a line on a distance time graph represents?
The slope of a line on a distance-time graph represents the speed or velocity. The steeper the line is and the greater the slope of the line is, the faster the object is moving.
