FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does a distance-time graph represent?

Back

A distance-time graph represents the distance traveled by an object over a specific period of time, showing how the distance changes as time progresses.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

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

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

Speed can be calculated by finding the slope of the line on the distance-time graph, which is the change in distance divided by the change in time (speed = distance/time).

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does a steep slope on a distance-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.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does a flat line followed by a steep line indicate on a distance-time graph?

Back

A flat line followed by a steep line indicates that the object was stationary for a period of time and then started moving quickly.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How can you determine the total time of a journey from a distance-time graph?

Back

The total time of a journey can be determined by looking at the time intervals represented on the x-axis of the graph.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does a downward slope on a distance-time graph represent?

Back

A downward slope indicates that the object is returning to its starting point, meaning the distance is decreasing over time.
