Question 25 • WA-Physical Science B

What is determined by calculating the slope of the position vs time graph?

Answer
p
position
v
velocity
d
distance
d
displacement

Explanation

The slope of a position-versus-time graph is the change in position divided by the change in time. That quantity is velocity, so the correct choice is velocity. Position is read from the graph itself, not calculated from its slope.
