How to find the gradient of a velocity time graph

Sidana [21]

The area-

The area under the line in a velocity-time graph represents the distance travelled. To find the distance travelled in the graph above, we need to find the area of the light-blue triangle and the dark-blue rectangle.

Area of light-blue triangle -
The width of the triangle is 4 seconds and the height is 8 meters per second. To find the area, you use the equation: area of triangle = 1⁄2 × base × height so the area of the light-blue triangle is 1⁄2 × 8 × 4 = 16m. Area of dark-blue rectangle The width of the rectangle is 6 seconds and the height is 8 meters per second. So the area is 8 × 6 = 48m. Area under the whole graph The area of the light-blue triangle plus the area of the dark-blue rectangle is:16 + 48 = 64m.This is the total area under the distance-time graph. This area represents the distance covered.

For the following elementary reaction 2br• -> br2-. The rate of consumption of the reaction and the rate of formation of prod

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: $-\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{d[Br^.]}{dt}=+\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}$

Explanation:

Rate of a reaction is defined as the rate of change of concentration per unit time.

Thus for reaction:

$2Br^.\rightarrow Br_2$

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

$Rate=-\frac{d[Br^.]}{2dt}$
