The magnitude of the acceleration of a moving object is equal to the
A
gradient of a displacement-time graph
B
gradient of a velocity-time graph
C
area below a force-time graph
D
area below a velocity-time graph
Verified Correct Answer: B.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
The magnitude of the acceleration of a moving object is equal to the rate of change of its velocity over time. Gradient of a velocity-time graph refers to the slope of the graph that plots velocity (y-axis) against time (x-axis).
