To solve the question regarding what the slope of a velocity-time graph represents, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Components of the Graph - A velocity-time (VT) graph plots velocity on the y-axis and time on the x-axis. - The slope of a graph is defined as the change in the y-axis variable divided by the change in the x-axis variable. ### Step 2: Identify the Variables - In the VT graph: ...

Graphs are very useful to represent a physical situation. Various quantities can be easily represented on graphs and other quantites can be determined from the graph. For example the slope of velocity-time graph represents instantaneous acceleration. For a motion with constant acceleration slope of velocity-time graph is constant. If acceleration is changing with time, slope will change and thus velocity-time graph will be a non-linear curve. Further the area of velocity-time graph gives displacement. For the given velocity-time graph the possibly correct acceleration-time relationship is
