Projectile motion

Question 1

What does the slope of a Position-Time Graph (𝒙 − 𝒕) represent?

Answer 1

Velocity

A steeper slope indicates a higher velocity.

Question 2

What type of line represents uniform motion on a Position-Time Graph?

Answer 2

Straight line

Indicates constant velocity with no acceleration.

Question 3

What type of line represents accelerated motion on a Position-Time Graph?

Answer 3

Curve

Indicates changing velocity.

Question 4

What does the slope of a Velocity-Time Graph (𝒗 − 𝒕) indicate?

Answer 4

Acceleration

A positive slope indicates increasing velocity.

Question 5

What does the area under the curve of a Velocity-Time Graph represent?

Answer 5

Displacement

Represents the total distance traveled in a given time.

Question 6

What does the area under the curve of an Acceleration-Time Graph (𝒂 − 𝒕) indicate?

Answer 6

Change in velocity

This reflects how much the velocity has increased or decreased over time.

Question 7

Time of Flight?

Answer 7

T = u
