You can calculate the slope of a velocity-time graph.
If you calculate the slope of the graph between two points, what would that tell you?
The velocity of the object.
The distance travelled by the object.
The acceleration of the object.
The mass of the object
Part B of the graph is from 25s to 35s. Which of these statements is true about Part B?
The object is at rest.
The object is accelerating (its velocity is increasing)
The object is decelerating (its velocity is decreasing)
The object is moving at a constant velocity.
Part D of the graph is from 55s to 95s. During Part D, the velocity values are all negative. What does negative velocity mean?
The object is slowing down.
The object is moving in the opposite direction now.
