What does the area under an acceleration time graph show?
The area under an acceleration-time graph is equal to the object's velocity (not change in velocity).
How do you use a graph to show someone's motion?
By using the distance, speed, and acceleration, to show on the graph the constant speed of each car
What type of acceleration does a trapezium on a velocity time graph represents?
A period of constant positive acceleration;a second period of zero acceleration; a third period of constant negative acceleration.
What does the slope of a distance uersus time graph show you about the motion of an object?
acceleration.
What does acceleration look like as a graph?
The answer depends on what is plotted on the graph and what is happening with the acceleration then.
How would a graph of negative and positive acceleration differ?
This depends on what the graph represents. If it is a graph of velocity on the vertical and time on the horizontal, then if acceleration is at a constant rate, the graph will be a straight line with positive slope (pointing 'up'). If acceleration stops, then the graph will be a horizontal line (zero acceleration or deceleration). If it is deceleration (negative acceleration), then the graph will have negative slope (pointing down).
How is acceleration represented on a graph?
Acceleration is represented on a graph by the slope of the velocity-time graph. A positive slope indicates acceleration in the positive direction, while a negative slope indicates acceleration in the negative direction. A horizontal line on the graph represents constant velocity, with zero acceleration.
When a negative acceleration is graphed the line slopes upward?
When a negative acceleration is graphed, the line slopes downward on a velocity-time graph. This is because negative acceleration causes a decrease in velocity over time, resulting in a negative slope on the graph.
What does a negative acceleration position-time graph indicate about the motion of an object?
A negative acceleration position-time graph indicates that the object is slowing down or decelerating.
What happens to acceleration when speed decreases on a speed time graph?
Acceleration is negative.
What will the acceleration-time graph show if the speed is decelerating?
On a graph of acceleration vs. time, during deceleration the line is below zero. On a graph of speed vs. time, during deceleration the line has a negative slope (sloping downward from left to right).
When the slope of v t graph is negative and constant what is the nature of acceleration?
acceleration is the slope of the v t graph... so the acceleration is constant and negative. In other words, the object is slowing down at a constant rate.
What is slope of velocity v time graph?
The slope of a velocity vs. time graph represents acceleration. A positive slope indicates acceleration in the positive direction, a negative slope indicates acceleration in the negative direction, and a horizontal line indicates constant velocity.
A negative slope on the velocity vs. time graph indicates a negative acceleration?
True
How Would The Acceleration vs Time Graph Look?
The acceleration vs. time graph would show how an object's acceleration changes over time. A horizontal line at zero acceleration would indicate constant velocity. A straight line with a positive or negative slope would represent constant acceleration. A curved line would indicate changing acceleration.
What does a speed time graph show?
The acceleration of an object.
True or false a negative slope on the velocity vs. time graph indicates that the object is not accelerating?
False. A negative slope on a velocity vs. time graph indicates that the object is decelerating, not that it is not accelerating. Acceleration and deceleration are both forms of acceleration, but in opposite directions.
