Analysing Graphs Flashcards
1
Q
What is the equation of the gradient of the line in a distance time graph?
A
The height of the triangle
The gradient of the line= —————————
The base of the triangle
2
Q
What happens when the velocity increases in a steady rate in a velocity-time graph?
A
The graph shows a straight line that has a constant gradient
3
Q
What do you have to remember when you want to find acceleration from the graph?
A
That the gradient of the line on a velocity-time graph represents the acceleration.
4
Q
What does the height of the triangle represent in a velocity-time graph?
A
The change of velocity.
5
Q
What does the base of the triangle represent in a velocity-time graph?
A
It represents the time taken.
