Front

What does it mean when sales decrease quickly at a constant rate?

Back

It means that the sales are dropping steadily over time without any fluctuations, indicating a consistent decline.

Front

What happens to an object when it is slowing down quickly to a stop?

Back

The object's speed decreases rapidly until it comes to a complete stop, indicating a negative acceleration.

Front

How can you identify a graph that represents constant speed?

Back

A graph showing constant speed will have a straight line with a consistent slope, indicating that distance is increasing evenly over time.

Front

How do you determine the distance traveled by an object at a specific time on a graph?

Back

You find the point on the graph corresponding to that time and read the distance value from the vertical axis.

Front

What does it mean when a graph shows a section that 'slowly increases at a constant rate'?

Back

It indicates that the value is rising steadily over time without any sudden changes, represented by a straight line with a gentle slope.

Front

What is the significance of point B to C in a distance-time graph?

Back

It shows the behavior of the object during that interval, such as whether it is speeding up, slowing down, or remaining stationary.

Front

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

Back

A horizontal line indicates that the object is not moving; its distance remains constant over time.

Front

What is the difference between constant speed and variable speed on a graph?

Back

Constant speed is represented by a straight line, while variable speed shows curves or changes in slope.

Front

How can you tell if an object is accelerating on a graph?

Back

Acceleration is indicated by a curve that slopes upwards; the steeper the curve, the greater the acceleration.

Front

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

Back

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