Question

The steepness of a velocity-time graph indicates the ___ of a moving body.

  1. Velocity
  2. Position
  3. Acceleration
  4. Change in position

hintHint:

The slope of the velocity time graph is:
Slope = velocity / time

The correct answer is: Acceleration


    The steepness of a velocity-time graph indicates the acceleration of a moving body.
    s l o p e space equals space fraction numerator v e l o c i t y over denominator t i m e end fraction
S l o p e space equals space fraction numerator m over denominator s cross times s end fraction
s l o p e space equals space m s to the power of negative 2 end exponent equals space a c c e l e r a t i o n
