P2.1.5 - Velocity Time Graphs Flashcards
1
Q
What does the gradient on any graph with time tell you?
A
The rate of change with time
2
Q
If the acceleration is negative, what can be assumed about the final velocity?
A
It is lower than the initial velocity
3
Q
How do you calculate the displacement in a velocity-time graph?
A
The area under the line of a velocity-time graph
4
Q
How do you calculate distance travelled in a velocity-time graph?
A
You look at the readings for distance
5
Q
How do you calculate displacement using squares on a velocity-time graph?
A
You calculate the distance each square is worth and then count the squares under the line of the velocity-time graph.
