Ploting graph on paper 3
(i)Title of graph
-Usually we start the title by mentioning the "quantity in Y-axis VS quantity of x-axis"
-Example:
Title of graph: Graph of V versus I
V represents Y -axis, I represents X-axis
(ii) Labels of x-axis and y-axis and units
-Make sure u include the labels & their units for each axis. Usually,
x-axis represents the manipulated variables
y-axis represents the responding variables
(iii) The vertical and horizontal scales must be even.
-Please choose the right scale based on the data given. Your scale should produce a larger
graph-Choosing right scale is important in order to let u to plot the points easily
(iv) Size of the graph is about of the graph paper.
-Make sure your chosen scale will produce a larger graph which occupies about 3/4 of the paper
-If your graph's size is less than 1/2 of the page..u better redo the graph ;)
(v)Dont forget to write values for the origin of the graph
Most graph starts with zero but there's case that some graph starts with a nonzero.
(vi)Use small cross mark (x) to plot the coordinates of the point in the graph
Make sure u plot the right point according to the data collected in the table.
Gradient calculation tips
In section B, they always ask u to calculate the gradients. While doing it make sure
-The chosen point should at least have a distance equivalent to 1/2 of the length of the graph
-please draw the triangle between the chosen point
For curvy graph, u need to draw the tangent line to find the gradient.
