Front

What is a distance-time graph?

Back

A graphical representation that shows the distance traveled by an object over a period of time.

Front

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

Back

The object is not moving.

Front

What does a straight diagonal line on a distance-time graph represent?

Back

The object is traveling at a constant speed.

Front

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

Back

The object is accelerating.

Front

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

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What unit is distance measured in?

Back

Meters (m).

Front

What unit is time measured in?

Back

Seconds (s).

Front

What is the formula for calculating distance?

Back

Distance = Speed x Time.

Front

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

Back

The object is moving faster.

Front

What does a flat line on a distance-time graph represent?

Back

The object is stationary.
