What equal accleration on a speed vs time graph?
The gradient of the graph.
What feature of a distance per time graph represents speed?
The gradient (slope) of the tangent to the graph at the given time - provided that it exists. If the graph is a straight line at that point, it is the gradient of that line.
What graph graph indicates that there is a linear relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variable?
a graph of the independent variable and dependant that shows a graph with a fixed gradient (I.E a line graph) The equation of the graph will be given by y = mx +c where m is the gradient and c is a constant
How do you find the gradient of a line from a graph?
Select two points on the graph and suppose their coordinates are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) then the gradient = (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2) provided that x1 and x2 are different. If not, the gradient is not defined.
How to calculate the gradient from the non linear graph?
Draw a tangent to the curve at the point where you need the gradient and find the gradient of the line by using gradient = up divided by across
Can the spring constant be found by the gradient of the graph?
The answer depends on what the graph is of!
How is acceleration obtained from a velocity line graph?
the gradient of the graph
What does the gradient of a line on a distance-time graph tell us about an object?
The gradient of a distance-time graph gives the object's speed.
How do you calculate deceleration on a velocity time graph?
It is the downward gradient of the graph.
What equal accleration on a speed vs time graph?
The gradient of the graph.
Can the scale of a graph affect the gradient calculation?
Not if the gradient calculation is done correctly.
What feature of a distance per time graph represents speed?
The gradient (slope) of the tangent to the graph at the given time - provided that it exists. If the graph is a straight line at that point, it is the gradient of that line.
What is the gradient of momentum time graph?
Force
What graph graph indicates that there is a linear relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variable?
a graph of the independent variable and dependant that shows a graph with a fixed gradient (I.E a line graph) The equation of the graph will be given by y = mx +c where m is the gradient and c is a constant
What feature of a distance time graph represent speed?
The gradient (slope) of the line on the graph.
What is the steepness on a line graph called?
The steepness of a line graph is called the "gradient" ------------------------------- or slope.
What a graph indicates that there is a linear relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variable?
a graph of the independent variable and dependant that shows a graph with a fixed gradient (I.E a line graph) The equation of the graph will be given by y = mx +c where m is the gradient and c is a constant
