A student slides a 0.75 kg textbook across a table, and it comes to rest after traveling 1.2 m. Given that the coefficient of kinetic friction
between the book and the table is 0.34, use the work-kinetic energy
theorem to find the book's initial speed.

  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.
