Acceleration is the derivative of velocity (a=dv/dt). If you are not familiar with calculus then it would be sufficient to say that the slope of the line tangent to the graph, only touches at one point, is equal to the instantaneous acceleration.
Instantaneous acceleration.
The slope of a velocity-time graph that shows uniform acceleration is the actual acceleration. Instantaneous velocity is the velocity of a body at a particular moment in time.
Acceleration.
It will measure acceleration in the direction towards or away from the origin.
No, it is instantaneous acceleration.
Instantaneous acceleration.

Acceleration.
Besides obviously distance at any instant, on a connected, continuous distance-time graph, you can obtain instantaneous velocity and instantaneous acceleration.
The average acceleration can be obtained by finding the slope of the graph. The instantaneous acceleration is found by drawing a tangent to a particular point on the graph (instant) and finding the slope of than tangent.
It will measure acceleration in the direction towards or away from the origin.
With great difficulty since the question does not specify what aspect of the object's instantaneous. Speed, position, acceleration?
When there is no acceleration or when there is constant acceleration. When either of these cases is present, the graph of velocity versus time will be linear. When there is linear velocity, the average velocity will equal the instantaneous velocity at any point on the graph.
instantaneous acceleration* * * * *No it does not.The graph is a distance-time graph so the coordinates of a point on the graph represent the position (distance) at the specified time. The gradient of the tangent to the curve at that point represents the instantaneous radial velocity. The second derivative at that point, if it exists, would represent the acceleration.
No, it is instantaneous acceleration.
It is the gradient (slope) of the line.
5. A particle is moving along the x-axis. The line graph shows the velocity of the particle over time. When is the instantaneous acceleration of the particle equal to 0?
