It's almost impossible to graph the direction of motion against time. So that
information is usually missing, and what you really have is a SPEED/time graph.
In a displacement-time graph, the gradient represents velocity. In a velocity-time graph, the gradient represents acceleration.
Velocity is NOT the slope of the acceleration vs. time graph. Velocity is the area under the acceleration vs. time graph. Velocity is the slope of a position vs. time graph, though. For you Calculus Junkies, v = the integral of acceleration with respect to time.
A velocity-time graph shows how an object's velocity changes over time. It is important because it provides information about an object's acceleration (slope of the graph), direction of motion (positive or negative slope), and allows for the calculation of the total distance traveled by the object.
The position vs time graph of an object shows its location at different times, while the velocity vs time graph shows how fast the object is moving at those times. The slope of the position vs time graph represents the velocity on the velocity vs time graph.
No, displacement is the area under the velocity vs. time graph. The slope of a velocity vs. time graph represents acceleration.
A position time graph can show you velocity. As time changes, so does position, and the velocity of the object can be determined. For a speed time graph, you can derive acceleration. As time changes, so does velocity, and the acceleration of the object can be determined.If you are plotting velocity (speed) versus time, the slope is the acceleration.
A velocity time graph is still a velocity time graph - no matter the degree of detail that you look at it.
A distance-time graph shows how an object's distance from a starting point changes over time, indicating its position at various moments. In contrast, a velocity-time graph displays how an object's velocity changes over time, revealing information about its speed and direction. While the distance-time graph's slope represents speed, the velocity-time graph's slope indicates acceleration. Thus, each graph provides distinct insights into an object's motion.
Derivitives of a velocity : time graph are acceleration and distance travelled. Acceleration = velocity change / time ( slope of the graph ) a = (v - u) / t Distance travelled = average velocity between two time values * time (area under the graph) s = ((v - u) / 2) * t
In a displacement-time graph, the gradient represents velocity. In a velocity-time graph, the gradient represents acceleration.
Velocity is NOT the slope of the acceleration vs. time graph. Velocity is the area under the acceleration vs. time graph. Velocity is the slope of a position vs. time graph, though. For you Calculus Junkies, v = the integral of acceleration with respect to time.
Your acceleration vs. Time graph is the slope of your velocity vs. time graph
To create an acceleration-time graph from a velocity-time graph, you need to find the slope of the velocity-time graph at each point. The slope represents the acceleration at that specific instant. Plot these acceleration values against time to get the acceleration-time graph.
A velocity-time graph shows how an object's velocity changes over time. It is important because it provides information about an object's acceleration (slope of the graph), direction of motion (positive or negative slope), and allows for the calculation of the total distance traveled by the object.
you can't....it's merely impossible! Assuming it is a graph of velocity vs time, it's not impossible, it's simple. Average velocity is total distance divided by total time. The total time is the difference between finish and start times, and the distance is the area under the graph between the graph and the time axis.
The position vs time graph of an object shows its location at different times, while the velocity vs time graph shows how fast the object is moving at those times. The slope of the position vs time graph represents the velocity on the velocity vs time graph.
No, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. It is the derivative of the velocity function, not the slope of the velocity vs. time graph. The slope of the velocity vs. time graph represents the rate of change of velocity, not acceleration.
