Q: In a displacement graph, the slope of the line is the average what?


Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

Example 2.17 Determining Average Velocity from a Graph of Displacement versus Time: Jet Car Find the average velocity of the car whose position is graphed in Figure 2.47. Strategy The slope of a graph of x vs. t is average velocity, since slope equals rise over run. In this case, rise = change in displacement and run = change in time, so that.

 Choices:

- direction

- speed

- time

- velocity


A:
velocity
