Aplane flies 1,995 miles in a southwesterly direction from baltimore to phoenix in 5.00 hours . what is the velocity of the plane ?

displacement of the plane is given as

time taken by the plane

now the velocity is given as

so the velocity of airplane is 399 mi/h towards South West

heats surface water up

  distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

  slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

  comparing both the equations

    change in value of y -axis = change in position

  change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.
