Question
what is shown by the velocity time graph given below? no velocity acceleration constant velocity
In a velocity - time graph, the slope of the graph represents acceleration. If the velocity - time graph is a horizontal line (constant velocity value as time changes), it means that the velocity is not changing with time. When velocity is constant, the acceleration (which is the rate of change of velocity) is zero. The option "no velocity" is incorrect because the graph shows a non - zero velocity value (the horizontal line is at a non - zero velocity on the y - axis). The option "acceleration" would be represented by a non - horizontal line (either increasing or decreasing velocity with time). So a horizontal velocity - time graph shows constant velocity.
