Name the physical quantity measured by the velocity-time graph?

The so-called "velocity-time" graph is actually a "speed-time" graph.  At any point
on it, the 'x'-coordinate is a time, and the 'y'-coordinate is the speed at that time.

'Velocity' is a speed AND a direction.  Without a direction, you do not have a velocity,
and these graphs never show the direction of the motion.  It seems to me that it would be
pretty tough to draw a graph that shows the direction of motion at every instant of time,
so my take is that you'll never see a true "velocity-time" graph. 

At best, it would need a second line on it, whose 'y'-coordinate referred to a second
axis, calibrated in angle and representing the 'bearing' or 'heading' of the motion at
each instant. The graph of uniform circular motion, for example, would have a straight
horizontal line for speed, and a 'sawtooth' wave for direction.

Alfredo makes a diagram to organize his notes about charging objects.
konstantin123 [22]

The region marked X in the diagram shows that the objects have the same charge.

<h3>What is conduction?</h3>

The term conduction has to do with the manner of charging in which charge is passed from one object to another. Induction involves charging objects without the objects touching each other.

The region marked X in the diagram shows that the objects have the same charge.

As an aid in working this problem, consult Interactive Solution 3.41. A soccer player kicks the ball toward a goal that is 20.0
alekssr [168]

Answer:

V=14.9 m/s

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we are going to use the formulas of parabolic motion.

The velocity X-component of the ball is given by:

Vx=V*cos(\alpha)\\Vx=15.7*cos(31^o)=13.5m/s

The motion on the X axis is a constant velocity motion so:

t=\frac{d}{Vx}\\t=\frac{20.0}{13.5}=1.48s

The whole trajectory of the ball takes 1.48 seconds

We know that:

Vy=Voy+(a)*t\\Vy=15.7*sin(31^o)+(-9.8)*(1.48)=-6.42m/s

Knowing the X and Y components of the velocity, we can calculate its magnitude by:

V=\sqrt{Vx^2+Vy^2} \\V=\sqrt{(13.5)^2+(-6.42)^2}=14.9m/s
