Why the slope of temperature versus pressure graph is positive in some cases and negative in other cases?
If the pressure is increasing then the slope is positive. If the pressure is decreasing then the slope is negative.
In a graph speed versus time what is the meaning of the slope?
The slope of the speed-vs-time graph is the magnitude of acceleration.
Does the slope of a speed versus time graph represents acceleration?
Exactly.
Would the graph of reaction distance versus speed have a positive or a negative slope?
your logic is flawed. please be more specific or present a different relationship in which I can correlate.
What is a slope when dealing with graph?
The slope for a straight line graph is the ratio of the amount by which the graph goes up (the rise) for every unit that it goes to the right (the run). If the graph goes down, the slope is negative. For a curved graph, the gradient at any point is the slope of the tangent to the graph at that point.
Why the slope of temperature versus pressure graph is positive in some cases and negative in other cases?
If the pressure is increasing then the slope is positive. If the pressure is decreasing then the slope is negative.
What does the slope of the line on a position versus time graph tell you about the objects speed?
The distance versus time graph shows the position of the object. The slope of the line shows the velocity of the object. The velocity is the direction and speed of an object. If your slope has a positive slant that means you are going in a positive direction. If the slope has a negative slant your object is going in a negative direction. If your slope is zero (a horizontal line) that means your object has stopped and is about to change directions. In case you didnt know a positive slant looks like this on a graph.... / a negative slant looks like this on a graph.... \ postive is like sloping up a hill negative is like falling down the hill
Is acceleration the slope of the velocitys vs the time graph?
Yes, acceleration is the slope of a velocity versus time graph.
In a graph speed versus time what is the meaning of the slope?
The slope of the speed-vs-time graph is the magnitude of acceleration.
What happends to the graph of a line when the slope is negative?
A straight line graph with negative slope slants downward from left to right.
What does the slope represent on a distance versus time graph?
speed
What does the slope of a force versus time graph indicate?
The slope of a force vs. time graph is equal to the change in momentum or the Impulse.
Does the slope of a speed-versus-time graph represents acceleration?
exactly
Does the slope of a speed versus time graph represents acceleration?
Exactly.
What does the slope of distance versus time graph represent physically?
Tangent of the slope at any point = velocity
Would the graph of reaction distance versus speed have a positive or a negative slope?
your logic is flawed. please be more specific or present a different relationship in which I can correlate.
When velocity is changing what is happening to the slope on a position versus time graph?
That slope is the 'speed' of the motion. If the slope is changing, then the speed is changing. That's 'accelerated' motion. (It doesn't matter whether the speed is growing or shrinking. It's still 'accelerated' motion. 'Acceleration' does NOT mean 'speeding up'.)
