11/19 Do Now Review Game - Velocity Time Graphs

Front

What does a constant speed in a velocity vs time graph indicate about the motion of an object?

Back

The object is moving at a steady speed without acceleration.

Front

How can you tell if an object is speeding up from a velocity vs time graph?

Back

The slope of the graph is positive, indicating an increase in velocity over time.

Front

What does the area under the velocity-time graph represent?

Back

The total distance traveled by the object during that time interval.

Front

How can you determine if an object is slowing down from a velocity vs time graph?

Back

The slope of the graph is negative, indicating a decrease in velocity over time.

Front

What does a horizontal line on a velocity vs time graph represent?

Back

The object is moving at a constant velocity.

Front

In a velocity-time graph, what does a steeper slope indicate?

Back

A steeper slope indicates a greater acceleration or deceleration.

Front

How do you find the time at which an object is traveling the fastest on a velocity-time graph?

Back

Identify the highest point on the graph; the corresponding time is when the object is traveling the fastest.

Front

What does a velocity-time graph look like for an object that is at rest?

Back

The graph is a horizontal line at zero velocity.

Front

What is the significance of a negative velocity in a velocity-time graph?

Back

It indicates that the object is moving in the opposite direction.

Front

How can you calculate the total distance traveled from a velocity-time graph?

Back

By calculating the area under the graph between two time points.
