What does a distance vs time graph represent?

Back

A distance vs time graph represents the relationship between the distance traveled by an object and the time taken to travel that distance.

Front

How do you calculate speed from a distance vs time graph?

Back

Speed can be calculated by finding the slope of the line on a distance vs time graph, which is the change in distance divided by the change in time.

Front

What does a horizontal line on a distance vs time graph indicate?

Back

A horizontal line indicates that the object is at rest, meaning it is not changing its position over time.

Front

What does a steep slope on a distance vs time graph indicate?

Back

A steep slope indicates a high speed, meaning the object is covering a large distance in a short amount of time.

Front

What does a flat slope on a distance vs time graph indicate?

Back

A flat slope indicates a low speed, meaning the object is covering a small distance over a longer period of time.

Front

How can you determine the total distance traveled from a distance vs time graph?

Back

The total distance traveled can be determined by measuring the vertical distance on the graph at the end of the time interval.

Front

What does the area under the curve represent in a distance vs time graph?

Back

In a distance vs time graph, the area under the curve does not represent anything; it is the slope that indicates speed.

Front

What is the significance of the y-intercept in a distance vs time graph?

Back

The y-intercept represents the initial position of the object at time zero.

Front

How can you identify when two objects are traveling at the same speed on a distance vs time graph?

Back

Two objects are traveling at the same speed if their lines on the graph are parallel.

Front

What does it mean if two lines intersect on a distance vs time graph?

Back

If two lines intersect, it means that the two objects have passed each other at that point in time.
