The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration. A positive slope indicates an increase in velocity over time, while a negative slope indicates a decrease in velocity (deceleration). The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration or deceleration experienced by the object.

What physical property does the slope of a velocity time graph represent?

velocity.

What is the unit of a physical quantity which is represented by area under a velocity time graph?

the physical quantity is distance and unit is meters


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).


Where must the average velocity for an interval be plotted on a velocity-time graph to represent an instantaneous velocity?

The average velocity for an interval must be plotted at the middle of the time interval to represent an instantaneous velocity on a velocity-time graph.


What does the slope of a curve represent on a velocity-versus-time graph represent?

The slope of the speed/time graph is the magnitude of acceleration. (It's very difficult to draw a graph of velocity, unless the direction is constant.)


Which quantity cannot be obtained from a velocity time graph?

Mass, possibly.


Name the two physical quantities which can be obtained from the velocity-time graph?

well, the area under the curve between a time interval is equal to the distance traveled on that specific time interval. So one quantity is distance. As for another quantity, the answer would be velocity, but I think they may want a less obvious answer. A quantity out side of velocity could be instantaneous acceleration. This is given by the slope of the the tangent line to the velocity-time graph. Hope this helps you answer your question. Though I think the most simple way to understanding why is to take a course of calculus.

What does the slopeof the lineon a distances time graph represent?

Velocity.


If the velocity is constant describe the slope of the graph on a position vs. time graph.?

If velocity is constant, the slope of the graph on a position vs. time graph will be a straight line. The slope of this line will represent the constant velocity of the object.
