What is the unit of a physical quantity which is represented by area under a velocity time graph?

the physical quantity is distance and unit is meters


What is the physical quantity measured under a speed time graph?

The physical quantity measured under a speed-time graph is acceleration. This is because acceleration is represented by the gradient of the graph, where a steeper gradient indicates a higher acceleration.


Which physical quantity is given by slope of v-t graph?

The physical quantity given by the slope of a velocity-time graph is acceleration. This is because the slope represents the rate of change of velocity over time, which is how acceleration is defined (acceleration = change in velocity / time taken).


What is the quantity which is measured by the area occupied below the velocity - time graph?

Distance travelled (displacement). Distance = velocity/time, so velocity * time = distance. Likewise, x = dv/dt so the integral of velocity with respect to time (area under the graph) is x, the distance travelled.


What physical quantity does the slope represent of a velocity time graph?

The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration. A positive slope indicates an increase in velocity over time, while a negative slope indicates a decrease in velocity (deceleration). The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration or deceleration experienced by the object.


Name the two physical quantities which can be obtained from the velocity-time graph?

well, the area under the curve between a time interval is equal to the distance traveled on that specific time interval. So one quantity is distance. As for another quantity, the answer would be velocity, but I think they may want a less obvious answer. A quantity out side of velocity could be instantaneous acceleration. This is given by the slope of the the tangent line to the velocity-time graph. Hope this helps you answer your question. Though I think the most simple way to understanding why is to take a course of calculus.


Area under the velocity time graph line is 40 M. What physical quantity does this area represent?

It represent the distance covered is 40 metre.


Which quantity cannot be obtained from a velocity time graph?

Mass, possibly.


What physical property does the slope of a velocity time graph represent?

velocity.


Which physical quantity is calculated by the slope of distance time graph?

The radial velocity ie velocity towards or away from your starting point. It is NOT the ordinary speed or velocity because you can run in a circle around your starting point at top speed but the distance will not change so the slope of the distance time graph will be zero.


What does displacement divided by time give you?

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


What is mass times velocity?

Mass * Velocity, mv, is the formula for momentum.Extended:This article goes over how E=mv was derived, and experimental evidence led toE=mv^2While E=mv^2 does match the data, there is no intuition for why the firstequation is wrong...this article gives some ideas and may peak someonesinterest
