Title: Are velcoity times graphs in igcse maths
Post by: astarmathsandphysics on October 16, 2009, 11:45:29 am

Can someone tell me which of the following are in igcse maths

distance time graphs
velocity time graphs
acceleration time graphs

distance time graphs only.

never seen velocity-time graphs and definitely not acceleration time graphs

even velocity-time graphs are a part of the solution besides distance-time graphs....bt acceleration are not....

velocity time graphs r a part but not acc time

I will do separate pages for velocity time graphs and distance time graphs

Acceleration is pure physics.

All the v-u thing

Its distance-time we have to worrry about.

Man, IG's were a piece of cake.
A levels.. :( :(

Both  but Acceleration,
same here Abgewl,Igs were soo easy Ib is one stressing thing

during my igs,
i learned speed time graphs and distance time graphs

the major properties we learned in distance time graphs r -
gradient = speed

the major properties we learned in speed time graphs r -
area under graph = distance
gradient = accelertion

I did the page anyway. If cie don't do it maybe edexcel do.

we did s-t and v-t graphs in math and add math but our physics teacher also did acceleration time graphs with us and how to draw the other two when one was given to us

by the way what do we get from the gradient of a curve when we plot acceleration against time
i know that we get speed(velocity) when we plot distance against time and acceleration when we pot velocity against time...

heyy...i had dt doubt in my mind since a long time.... :)
anybody there who knows??????

If you plot accelearation against time the get the rate of change of acceleration. Won't be much use to anyone though.
