What does the slope of a speed vs time graph means

1 Answer

Answer:

speed = m/s on y axis

time = s on x axis

when you calculate the slope you do y2-y1/x2-x1 right?

m/s/s become
m/s^2, which is the unit of acceleration

On a speed vs time graph, if you see that the line is constant, then acceleration = 0 because there is no difference in speed, you are not acceleration or decelerating.

So in summary, it's acceleration

Hope that that answers your question
