Motion Graphs Review

Front

What does an increasing speed graph indicate about an object's motion?

Back

The object is accelerating and moving faster over time.

Front

What does a constant speed graph indicate about an object's motion?

Back

The object is moving at a steady pace without speeding up or slowing down.

Front

What does a decreasing speed graph indicate about an object's motion?

Back

The object is decelerating and slowing down over time.

Front

What does a stationary graph indicate about an object's motion?

Back

The object is not moving and remains in the same position.

Front

What does it mean when a graph shows steady speed while moving away from the starting position?

Back

The object is maintaining a constant speed as it moves further from the starting point.

Front

What does it mean when a graph shows steady speed while returning to the starting position?

Back

The object is moving back towards the starting point at a constant speed.

Front

How can you identify when an object comes to a complete stop on a motion graph?

Back

Look for a flat line on the graph, indicating no change in position over time.

Front

What does a steep slope on a motion graph represent?

Back

A steep slope indicates a high speed of the object.

Front

What does a gentle slope on a motion graph represent?

Back

A gentle slope indicates a low speed of the object.

Front

What is the significance of the x-axis on a motion graph?

Back

The x-axis typically represents time.
