Question diagram
A

Calculate the slope of the line connecting points (v1, t1) and (v2, t2).

B

Calculate the area under the curve between t1 and t2.

C

Find the difference in velocities v2 and v1.

D

Determine the midpoint of the line segment between (v1, t1) and (v2, t2).

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The average acceleration is the slope of the line connecting the points (v1, t1) and (v2, t2) on a velocity versus time graph, as stated in the NCERT context.
