Read each question carefully and provide your answers in the space provided. For questions involving graphs, pay close attention to the axes and the shape of the curve.
1. What does the slope of a displacement-time graph represent?
Acceleration
Velocity
Distance
Time
2. The area under a velocity-time graph represents:
Acceleration
Displacement
Speed
Force
3. A horizontal line on an acceleration-time graph indicates acceleration.
4. The units for the slope of a force-displacement graph are .
5. Describe the motion of an object if its velocity-time graph is a straight line with a negative slope.
6. A curved line on a displacement-time graph indicates constant velocity.
True
False
7. Analyze the following velocity-time graph for an object in motion:
a) What is the acceleration of the object between t = 0s and t = 2s?
b) What is the total displacement of the object between t = 0s and t = 10s?
