1
Q
what does the area under velocity time graph show? draw
A
displacement
2
Q
what does the area under a speed/ time graph show? draw
A
Distance
3
Q
How do you find the acceleration of an object from a velocity time graph?
A
gradient
4
Q
What is the difference between a distance-time graph and a displacement-time graph
A
distance-time graph is scalar and shows the speed through the gradient , displacement-time graph is vector and shows the velocity through the gradient.
5
Q
what can you find out from a displacement-time graph, how?
A
velocity- find the gradient
6
Q
what can you find out from a distance-time graph, how?
A
