Distance-Time Graphs | The gradient of the line represents an object's SPEED |
Steeper the line on a distance-time graph... | greater the speed it represents |
Speed Equation: | Speed(m/s)=distance travelled(m)/time taken(s) |
Acceleration Equation: | a=v-u/t |
The area under the line on a velocity time graph represents the distance travelled in given time | The bigger the area, the greater the distance travelled |
Velocity-Time Graphs | The gradient represents acceleration |
If the line on velocity time graph is horizontal... | acceleration would equal zero |
A car travels 100m in 5s. What is its average speed? | 20m/s |
what does a horizontal line on a distance time graph represent? | A stationary object |
What does a horizontal line on a velocity time graph represent? | Constant velocity |
A car accelerates from rest to 30m/s in 15s. What is its acceleration? | 2m/s2 |
What does the gradient on a distance time graph represent? | The speed |
What does the gradient on a velocity time graph represent? | The acceleration |
What does the area under a velocity time graph represent? | The distance tarvelled |
