What does the slope of a Position vs. Time graph represent?

Physics
1 answer:
attashe74 [19]3 years ago
7 0

Your question asks what the slope of a Position vs. Time graph represents.

Your answer would be Velocity.

The slope of a Position vs. Time graph would represent the velocity of the object.

If the slope is positive, then the object has a positive velocity ,in which it is going forward.

If the slope is negative, then the object has a negative velocity, which means that it's going the opposite direction, or backwards.

If the slope is at a "horizontal" position, this means that the object is stopped or isn't moving at all.

Pavel [41]

Complete question is:

A 1200 kg car reaches the top of a 100 m high hill at A with a speed vA. What is the value of vA that will allow the car to coast in neutral so as to just reach the top of the 150 m high hill at B with vB = 0 m/s. Neglect friction.

Answer:

(V_A) = 31.32 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

car's mass, m = 1200 kg

h_A = 100 m

h_B = 150 m

v_B = 0 m/s

From law of conservation of energy,

the distance from point A to B is;

h = 150m - 100 m = 50 m

From Newton's equations of motion;

v² = u² + 2gh

Thus;

(V_B)² = (V_A)² + (-2gh)

(negative next to g because it's going against gravity)

Thus;

(V_B)² = (V_A)² - (2gh)

Plugging in the relevant values;

0² = (V_A)² - 2(9.81 × 50)

(V_A) = √981

(V_A) = 31.32 m/s

Three balls of equal mass are fired simultaneously with equal speeds from the same height h above the ground. Ball 1 is fired st
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

d) v1 = v2 = v3

Explanation:

This can be answered using conservation of energy. We calculate the mechanical energy E=K+U (sum of kinetic and gravitational potential energies) at the original and final points, and impose they are equal.

At the original point we have, for the three balls:

E_i=K_i+U_i=\frac{mv_i^2}{2}+mgh_i=\frac{mv^2}{2}+mgh

At the final point we have, for the three balls:

E_f=K_f+U_f=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}+mgh_f=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}

Since we have E_i=E_f, and E_i is the same for all balls, then E_f is the same for all balls, which means that v_f, the final velocity, is the same for all balls.

A truck speed from rest to 120km/h in 13s. Find its acceleration. (convert to m/s)
ioda

answer:

2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

120 km/h = 120 ÷ 3.6 = 100/3 ≈ 33 m/s

a = (v2 - v1)/∆t = (33m/s - 0)/ 13s = 33/13 m/s²≈ 2.5 m/s²
