1. What does a positive slope on a velocity-time graph indicate?
Termen in deze set(19)
What does a velocity-time graph show?
It shows how an object's velocity changes over time.
True or false: Position is the same as displacement.
False, because position is a location; displacement is the change in position.
What does a horizontal line on a position-time graph indicate?
It indicates that the object is at rest.
Difference between speed and velocity
Speed is scalar; velocity includes direction.
What does the slope of a position-time graph represent?
The slope represents the object's velocity.
Fill in the blank: The area under a velocity-time graph represents _____
displacement.
What does a downward slope on a velocity-time graph signify?
A decrease in velocity, indicating deceleration.
True or false: A steeper slope indicates faster speed.
True, because a steeper slope means a greater change in position over time.
What does a parabolic curve on a position-time graph indicate?
It indicates uniformly accelerated motion.
Difference between instantaneous and average velocity
Instantaneous velocity is at a specific time; average velocity is over a time interval.
What does a constant positive slope on a velocity-time graph indicate?
It indicates constant acceleration.
What is represented by the y-intercept on a position-time graph?
The initial position of the object.
True or false: The total distance traveled can be found from a velocity-time graph.
True, by calculating the area under the curve.
Fill in the blank: On a velocity-time graph, a straight line at zero indicates _____
the object is at rest.
What does a negative area under a velocity-time graph represent?
A negative displacement, indicating motion in the opposite direction.
What are the units of slope on a position-time graph?
Units are typically meters per second (m/s).
What does a curve in a velocity-time graph indicate?
Acceleration is changing, indicating non-uniform acceleration.
What does the intersection of two lines on a velocity-time graph mean?
It indicates the moment when the two objects have the same velocity.
Difference between uniform and non-uniform motion
Uniform motion has constant velocity; non-uniform changes speed.
