Answer: speed.
- A speed
- B velocity
- C displacement
- D acceleration
Correct answer: A. speed
Explanation: Speed has only magnitude, so it is a scalar; the others are vectors.
On a velocity-time graph for uniform acceleration, the slope of the line gives the acceleration and the shaded area under the line gives the displacement.
