Accelerated Motion Graphs

Front

What is an accelerated motion graph?

Back

An accelerated motion graph represents the relationship between an object's position, velocity, and acceleration over time, showing how these quantities change as the object moves.

Front

What does a position-time graph indicate?

Back

A position-time graph shows how an object's position changes over time, with time on the x-axis and position on the y-axis.

Front

What does a velocity-time graph represent?

Back

A velocity-time graph illustrates how an object's velocity changes over time, with time on the x-axis and velocity on the y-axis.

Front

What does the slope of a position-time graph represent?

Back

The slope of a position-time graph represents the object's velocity.

Front

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

Back

The area under a velocity-time graph represents the object's displacement.

Front

What does a flat line on a velocity-time graph indicate?

Back

A flat line on a velocity-time graph indicates that the object is moving at a constant velocity.

Front

What does a positive slope on a velocity-time graph indicate?

Back

A positive slope on a velocity-time graph indicates that the object is accelerating.

Front

What does a negative slope on a velocity-time graph indicate?

Back

A negative slope on a velocity-time graph indicates that the object is decelerating.

Front

How can you determine acceleration from a velocity-time graph?

Back

Acceleration can be determined by calculating the slope of the velocity-time graph.

Front

What does a steeper slope on a distance-time graph indicate?

Back

A steeper slope on a distance-time graph indicates a faster speed.
