http://prntscr.com/3ds7ul hi can help me the question is find the acceleration in the 1st 2 seconds in the graph.
acceleration is the slope of a v-t graph
yeah like the graph, Im being asked to find the value for acceleration in the 2 second mark can you help me
first, do you know how to find the slope of a graph?
yeah
rise over run
so is it 6.5 divided by 2?
approximately 7/2 , because it's between 6 and 8
umm so when you have that you take the middle number? so the answer would be 3.5 thank you so much
can you help me one last question im being asked how many meters have been traveled in the 10 second mark how do i find that?
now it's looking for the displacement. the area under the v-t graph is the displacement
hmmm what are you mean exactly ?
area*
Divide the graph into triangles and rectangles, calculate the area of each and sum them up. it comes to 89m
