If the pressure is increasing then the slope is positive. If the pressure is decreasing then the slope is negative.

Why are there positive and negative numbers on the y axis?

The y-axis in a coordinate system represents values that can be either positive or negative, depending on the context of the data being graphed. Positive numbers typically indicate quantities above a reference point, while negative numbers represent quantities below that point. This allows for a comprehensive representation of a range of values, such as elevation above or below sea level, profits versus losses, or temperature changes. Including both positive and negative values provides a clearer understanding of the relationships and variations in the data.


Is it possible to have a negative speed?

No, Speed is always greater than or equal to zero. However, velocity can be negative, which just means you have a positive speed in the opposite direction! (scalar(number) versus vector).


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.


How does weather use negative numbers?

When determining temperature in the negative range, which is more often seen in the Celsius scale versus the Fahrenheit scale. Negative numbers in Celsius are below the freezing point of water.Reported changes in tides and barometric levels use negative numbers as well, although the readings themselves would not be negative.


What happens to a object if the line crosses the x-axis from the positive portion of a velocity versus time diagram?

Its velocity becomes negative. That is, it starts moving back towards its starting point.

How can one determine the normal boiling point by using the vapor pressure and temperature?

To determine the normal boiling point using vapor pressure and temperature, one can plot a graph of vapor pressure versus temperature and identify the temperature at which the vapor pressure equals the standard atmospheric pressure of 1 atm. This temperature corresponds to the normal boiling point of the substance.


Why odd plus odd equal even please explain?

Ha i recently wondered this! There is no answer a positive plus a positive always equals a negative (vice versus) its just the mathematic rule!

Owing money can be represented with a negative number.?

Yes. In general, you can use positive versus negative numbers whenever you have two opposites. Other examples include having a net profit on a business transaction, versus having a net loss; or altitude above (or below) sea level,


What does a phase diagram provide?

What is the temperature of germanium as a liquid?

At a pressure of one atmosphere Germanium is a liquid between the melting temperature of 938.25 °C (that is 1720.85 °F) and the boiling temperature of 2833 °C (that is 5131 °F). This temperature range is affected by pressure and in order to have boiling and melting points for an arbitrary environmental pressure the Germanium Phase Diagram has to be consulted, providing the boiling and melting temperatures versus the environmental pressure.

What is the Negative connotation for self focused?

The negative connotation is self, that is, versus others. The opposite phrase, other-focused, has a positive connotation.Example:Mike is too self-focused. He should take his cues from Leo, and learn to be more other-focused.
