Why does a curve on a distance-time graph indicate acceleration?

Biology
1 answer:
fgiga [73]3 years ago
4 0

A curve on a distance-time graph indicates distance with respect to time.

For someone good in interpreting curves, the slope of distance/time at each point on the curve represents the velocity.

For someone still better in reading curves, the second derivative of the curve at any point indicates acceleration. Second derivative means the rate of variation of velocity with respect to time.

So the quick answer is a curve on a distance time graph does NOT directly indicate acceleration. See example in attached diagram. If you can "see" the constant acceleration indicated in the bottom (distance-time) graph, then yes, you can find acceleration from a distance-time graph. Otherwise, the answer is still no.

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves travel slowest in dense matter such as solids. On the other hand, mechanical waves travel quickly through solids. For example, sound travels fastest through solids. This difference is because EM waves do not rely on the movement of particles to travel. Since they require no medium they can travel the fastest in space or other vacuums.

Answer: respiratory system

Explanation:

The respiratory system is the network of organs and tissues that help you breathe. It includes your airways, lungs and blood vessels.
