  1. Determine Acceleration from Position vs. Time Graph

    Dec 17, 2007 · The position vs. time graph is wavy and I assume the only point where there is acceleration is where there is a curve, right? It seems like the acceleration is also 0 at the …

  2. Angular position vs. time graph - Physics Forums

    Nov 14, 2009 · Converting an angular velocity vs. time graph to an angular position vs. time graph involves calculating the area under the velocity graph. The area represents the change in …

  3. Slope of position vs time squared graph? • Physics Forums

    Oct 18, 2015 · Homework Statement What would the slope of a position vs time squared graph represent? Homework Equations X=my^2+b The Attempt at a Solution I thought the slope of …

  4. What is the position-vs-time graph for a falling object?

    Sep 27, 2007 · What is the position-vs-time graph of a free-falling object (the simplest example for your F-vs-t graph)? If you are unsure, take a ball an throw it upwards, and study its motion.

  5. What Does the Area Under a Position vs. Time Graph Represent?

    Nov 30, 2008 · The area under (integral) a velocity vs. time graph is total displacement, or if it is absolute value'd, total distance traveled. So then, what does the area under a position vs. time …

  6. Can a position vs time graph be perfectly horizontal or vertical?

    Jan 21, 2010 · I would agree that the position vs. time graph for an animal can be perfectly horizontal if the animal is standing still especially if the animal is road kill. What do you think a …

  7. Velocity squared and position graph - Physics Forums

    Sep 7, 2008 · The discussion revolves around interpreting a velocity squared vs. position graph to find acceleration. The slope of the graph, calculated as 2.0x10^3 cm^3/s^2, is questioned in …

  8. Position-time graphs and tangent lines - Physics Forums

    Jan 9, 2012 · The discussion centers on understanding the importance of tangent lines in position-time graphs, particularly in calculating instantaneous velocity. While the slope formula …

  9. Vertical lines on postion vs. time graphs. • Physics Forums

    Aug 30, 2013 · I understand how position vs. time diagrams can give velocity. If the line is flat then the velocity is zero (the particle is still), and all the other basic things I need to know, but …

  10. Position vs time graph that relates to a constant non-zero …

    May 30, 2011 · A constant non-zero acceleration indicates that an object's position changes over time, resulting in an increasing speed. The discussion eliminates options where the position …
