i know that but the graph has a parabolic curveDick said:It's asking for average velocity. Average velocity is total displacement over total time. It's not that hard.
The average velocity from a parabolic curve can be calculated by dividing the change in position (Δx) by the change in time (Δt). This can be represented by the formula:
Average Velocity = Δx/Δt
A parabolic curve is a U-shaped curve that is created by a quadratic equation. In the context of velocity, a parabolic curve represents the change in an object's position over time, with the slope of the curve representing the object's velocity at any given point.
Yes, the average velocity from a parabolic curve can be negative. This occurs when the object is moving in the opposite direction of the positive x-axis. The negative sign indicates that the object is moving in the negative direction with respect to the chosen coordinate system.
The average velocity from a parabolic curve represents the overall change in an object's position over a specified time interval. On the other hand, instantaneous velocity refers to the velocity of an object at a specific moment in time, represented by the slope of the tangent line at that point on the curve.
The units of measurement for average velocity from a parabolic curve are distance over time, such as meters per second or kilometers per hour. The specific unit will depend on the units used for the change in position and the change in time.
