Open in App
Solution

  1. In the( v-t ) graph, velocity(V) is taken on x-axisand time(t) is taken ony-axis.
  2. The slope of the v-tgraph can be calculated by calculating the ratio of velocity to time.
  3. As per the definition of acceleration, acceleration is also the ratio of velocity to time.

Hence,

we can say that the slope of a v-t graph indicates the acceleration of an object.
