Yes. It means that the acceleration increases at a constant rate, for example 3 mph every second.
Answer:
A line crossing the x-axis in a velocity-time graph means that the moving object has changed its direction.
Explanation:
Velocity-Time graph:
A velocity-time graph is a two dimensional graph with velocity at its y-axis and time at its x-axis. At any point, value of y represents the velocity and value of x represents the time. The slope of the graph gives us the acceleration or deceleration of the moving object.
In a velocity-time graph:
- A straight line represents constant velocity.
- A diagonal line means that the velocity of a body is changing.
*Referring to the figure attached with the answer*
The velocity of the moving object increases at a constant rate for the first 10 minutes. Then the velocity is 60 m/min for the next 5 minutes. After that the velocity is decreasing. Till 30th minute when the velocity is at 0 m/min.
What happens here?
Velocity is a vector quantity. It has some direction. In a velocity-time graph, we are only concerned with two directions of velocity:
- Forward direction
- Backward direction
So, the object stops at 30th minute and starts moving in the reverse direction after that with an increasing velocity. <u>The point where the line cuts the x-axis is basically the point where the object starts moving in the reverse direction.</u>
Answer:
The three laws of motion were first compiled by Isaac Newton in his Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy), first published in 1687. Newton used them to explain and investigate the motion of many physical objects and systems
Two kinds of motion exhibited by electrons of an atom are electron spin and electron revolution
During its lifepsan, the sun's core would keep contracting and heating up.
The temperature will keep increasing to the point where the temperature outside the core will get to hydrogen fusion temperatures.
The sun will grow in surface and eventually became the Red Giant
