Distance Time Graphs

Front

What is a Distance Time Graph?

Back

A graph that shows the distance an object has traveled over a specific period of time.

Front

What does a positive slope on a Distance Time Graph indicate?

Back

It indicates that the object is moving away from the starting point at a constant speed.

Front

What does a negative slope on a Distance Time Graph indicate?

Back

It indicates that the object is returning to the starting point.

Front

What does a flat line on a Distance Time Graph represent?

Back

It represents that the object is not moving (at rest).

Front

How do you calculate speed?

Back

Speed = Distance ÷ Time.

Front

If a car travels 120 kilometers in 2 hours, what is its speed?

Back

60 km/h.

Front

What does acceleration mean in the context of motion?

Back

Acceleration refers to the rate at which an object changes its speed.

Front

What is constant speed?

Back

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

Front

What is the unit of speed?

Back

Common units of speed include meters per second (m/s) and kilometers per hour (km/h).

Front

What does it mean if a Distance Time Graph has a steep slope?

Back

A steep slope indicates a high speed.
