Question

Slope of the velocity - time graph gives a) speed b) displacement c) distance d) acceleration

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is acceleration.

Explanation:

When an object moves from one point to another in a given time its velocity changes. The slope of the velocity-time graph is called acceleration. Because an object goes from one point to another and the change in velocity does not remain constant.

Thus the rate of change in velocity of an object gives acceleration. The slope of the velocity-time curve is equal to tan θ = dv /dt
