Math Problem Statement
Draw the velocity vs. time graph
Draw the velocity vs. time graph.
Solution
To draw the velocity vs. time graph based on the given position-time graph, we need to analyze the slope of each segment of the graph, as the velocity is the rate of change of position with respect to time.
Step-by-step breakdown:
-
From to second:
- The graph rises from 1 meter to 2 meters.
- Slope .
- So, velocity = .
-
From to seconds:
- The graph remains flat (horizontal line at 2 meters).
- Slope = 0, meaning the object is not moving.
- So, velocity = .
-
From to seconds:
- The graph decreases from 2 meters to 1 meter.
- Slope .
- So, velocity = .
-
From to seconds:
- The graph remains flat (horizontal line at 1 meter).
- Slope = 0, meaning the object is stationary again.
- So, velocity = .
-
From to seconds:
- The graph rises from 1 meter to 5 meters.
- Slope .
- So, velocity = .
