Find the object's speeds v1, v2, and v3 at times t1=2.0s, t2=4.0s, and t3=13s.
2 answers:
Since this is a distance/time graph, the speed at any time is the slope of the part of the graph that's directly over that time on the x-axis.At time t1 = 2.0 s That's in the middle of the first segment of the graph, that extends from zero to 3 seconds. Its slope is 7/3 . v1 = 7/3 m/s .At time t2 = 4.0 s That's in the middle of the horizontal part of the graph that runs from 3 to 6 seconds. Its slope is zero. v2 = zero . At time t3 = 13 s. That's in the middle of the part of the graph that's sloping down, between 11 and 16 seconds. Its slope is -3/5 . v3 = -0.6 m/s .
The slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line. For a distance-time graph, it signifies the velocity. at t1=2.0s v = 7/3 m/s At time t2 = 4.0 s v = zero At time t3 = 13 s v = -0.6 m/s Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
