Concept explainers
To Plot: The given data on position-time graph.
To Find: The slope of the line and the car’s speed.
Answer to Problem 71A
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Table 2 of position-time.
Formula used:
Equation of the standard straight line which starts from origin
Where,
Calculation:
Graph for the given data can be drawn as:
From the graph, obtained equation which satisfies the straight line is:
Equation of the standard straight line which starts from origin
On comparing both the equations, slope of line can be given as:
Speed of car = slope of the position - time graph
