Front

What is speed?

Back

Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time, often measured in meters per second (m/s).

Front

How can we determine which object is moving faster?

Back

To determine which object is moving faster, compare the distance each object travels in the same amount of time.

Front

What does a graph showing distance vs. time represent?

Back

A distance vs. time graph shows how far an object has traveled over a period of time, indicating speed and movement patterns.

Front

What does a flat line on a distance vs. time graph indicate?

Back

A flat line indicates that the object is not moving; it has not changed its position over time.

Front

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

Back

A steep slope indicates that the object is moving quickly, covering a large distance in a short amount of time.

Front

What does a downward slope on a distance vs. time graph indicate?

Back

A downward slope indicates that the object is returning to its starting point or moving backward.

Front

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

Back

The y-axis represents the distance traveled by the object.

Front

What is the significance of the x-axis in a distance vs. time graph?

Back

The x-axis represents the time elapsed during the object's movement.

Front

How can we find the distance traveled between two points on a graph?

Back

To find the distance traveled between two points, measure the vertical distance between the two points on the y-axis.

Front

What does it mean if an object has a constant speed?

Back

Constant speed means the object covers equal distances in equal intervals of time.
