Name all the factors that affect the distance taken for a toy car to stop after rolling down a ramp?

- The slope and length of the ramp. - The rolling friction between the tires and the ramp/ground. - The air resistance (which is dependent on the velocity and geometrical shape of the car). - The direction and speed of the wind. - The smoothness of the ground (a rugged surface will slow the car down).

Which physical quantity is given by slope of v-t graph?

The physical quantity given by the slope of a velocity-time graph is acceleration. This is because the slope represents the rate of change of velocity over time, which is how acceleration is defined (acceleration = change in velocity / time taken).


When you take the slope of a distance-time graph you find?

If Distance is the ordinate(y-axis) and Time is the abscissa(x-axis) then the slope gives the speed. If Time is the ordinate(y-axis) and Distance is the abscissa(x-axis) then the slope gives the Time taken per unit of Distance
