What else can I help you with?
Why do you need slope?
Slopes give you the rate of change. On a distance vs. time graph the rate of change (i.e. the slope) is the velocity. On a Velovity vs. Time graph the rate of change is the acceleration. etc.
Is acceleration the slope of 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.
How do you find the rate of change from graphs?
Differentiate the graph with respect to time.
What does the slope of the curve on a velocity time graph represent?
The rate of Change in acceleration.
What does the slope of they curve on a velocity-versus-time graph represent?
The rate of change in accelleration.
What characteristic of a graph represents the rate of change?
The slope of a graph.
Acceleration can be found by computing the slope of what vs. time graph.?
Acceleration can be found by computing the slope of a velocity vs. time graph. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time, so the slope of a velocity vs. time graph represents this change in velocity.
When you are graphing aceleration on a distance time graph the data is shown as?
It's the rate of change of gradient. Or if you have the function of the distance-time graph, it's d2x/dt2.
What does a shallow slope on a graph say about the rate of change?
A low rate of change.
How can one determine the rate constant from a graph?
To determine the rate constant from a graph, you can use the slope of the line in a first-order reaction plot. The rate constant is equal to the negative slope of the line, which can be calculated by dividing the change in concentration by the change in time.
What does the slope of an acceleration time graph indicate?
The slope of an acceleration-time graph represents the rate of change of acceleration over time. A steeper slope indicates a faster rate of acceleration, while a less steep slope indicates a slower rate of acceleration.
What can show a constant rate on a graph?
A constant rate on a graph is typically represented by a straight, diagonal line. This indicates that the change in one variable is consistent with respect to the change in another variable, such as time. For example, if you graph distance versus time for an object moving at a steady speed, the slope of the line remains constant, reflecting the constant rate of motion.
