11. Variable acceleration Flashcards
1
Q
What does the gradient represent on a velocity time graph?
A
Acceleration
2
Q
What is the result when you differentiate velocity?
A
Displacement
3
Q
If the displacement, s, is expressed as a function of t, how can the velocity be expressed?
A
ds / dt
4
Q
What does the area under a velocity-time graph represent?
A
The displacement
5
Q
How do you work out displacement, velocity and acceleration through differentiation and integration?
A
Displacement - Velocity - Acceleration
= differentiate
