3
Q
How could you show a higher rate in change of gradient (in a distance time graph )
A
- A tighter (taller) curve
4
Q
How do you calculate acceleration?
A
Change in velocity \ time taken
5
Q
Name two features of constant velocity in a v-t graph …
A
Zero gradient and zero acceleration
6
Q
What does the gradient of a velocity time graph show?
A
It shows the acceleration of an object.
7
Q
If the acceleration on a graph changing, what else is changing?
A
The gradient!
