Question
Suppose a graph of displacement of a body (x-axis) against time (y-axis) is constructed. The slope of the graph at any point may be identified asQuestion 6Answera.instantaneous accelerationb.instantaneous speedc.instantaneous velocityd.average velocitye.average acceleration
Solution
The slope of a displacement-time graph gives the velocity of the body at any given point in time. Therefore, the correct answer is c. instantaneous velocity.
