eggie 84552 haha that is an unusual question! Unfortunately I have no idea - I borrowed it from the school I was working at at the time. Sorry I can’t be more specific!
Roro 88 good question! To find the distance travelled we measure the area under the graph. Because this line forms a triangle, we calculate its area using 1/2 base x height. In this case the base is 3 and the height is 2, so 1/2 base x height = 1/2 x 3 x 2 = 1.5 x 2. Hope that helps!
the red line you drew for the velocity-time graph, cant it be drawn on the distance time graph to represent displacement ; if you may, explain the concept for me
hlompho princess if you mean the downwards slope on the graph, that means decelerating on the velocity time graph. A downwards slope on a displacement time graph means the object is moving back to where it started. You can’t have a downwards slope on a distance time graph because distance is a scalar quantity which means it cannot be negative - even traveling back to where you started would be a positive distance travelled. Hope that makes sense!
