Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The slope of a velocity vs time graph
A
speed
B
distance
C
acceleration
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Thus, in a velocity-time graph, the slope would be slope = ∆ v ∆ t where is the change in velocity and is the change in time. We know that acceleration = change in velocity change in time = ∆ v ∆ t, which is the slope of a velocity-time graph. Therefore, the slope of a velocity-time graph gives acceleration.

Detailed explanation-2: -The slope of a velocity graph represents an object’s acceleration. As a result, the value of the slope at a given time represents the object’s acceleration at that time. The rate of change of an object’s velocity with respect to time is defined as acceleration.
