What does a slope line on a position time graph represent?
The slope of a line on a position/time graph, represents rate of change.
What does the slope of a position-time graph represent?
Speed.
In position vs. time graph what variable does slope represent?
The slope of a line on a position vs. time graph would represent the a velocity of the object being described.
What does the slope of a speed-time graph represent?
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
What does the slope of the distance time graph represent?
The slope of a distance-time graph represents speed.
What does slope of a speed time graph represent?
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
How do you find velocity on a position time graph?
The slope on a position-time graph is the velocity.
What information can be learned from a position-time graph and from a speed-time graph?
The slope of a position-time graph is velocity. The slope of a velocity-time graph is acceleration. Displacement also can be determined by determining the area under the slope of a velocity-time graph.
What is the significance of the slope of position vs time graph?
The slope of a position vs time graph gives the velocity of the object moving.
Is The slope on a position-time graph is representative of the acceleration of the object?
No. Slope of position/time graph is speed, or magnitude of velocity.Slope of speed/time graph is magnitude of acceleration.
How to convert a position time graph into a velocity time graph?
By calculating the slope at different or deisired points on the position-time graph by drawing tangents at the points. Since, slopes on a position-time graph represent velocity, you now have the velocity of the object at the time on which you have drawn the tangents. Now, that you have the velocity and you already had the time, all you have to is sketch the velocity-time graph Remember Slope (velocity on position-time graph)= 'd2-d1' divided by 't2-t1'
What in a position time graph a steep slope indicates?
A steep slope on a position-time graph indicates an average velocity with a fast speed.
