Distance vs. Time Graphs

Front

What is a Distance vs. Time Graph?

Back

A graphical representation showing the relationship between distance traveled and time taken.

Front

What does a horizontal line on a Distance vs. Time Graph indicate?

Back

The object is stationary; it is not moving.

Front

What does a straight diagonal line on a Distance vs. Time Graph represent?

Back

The object is moving at a constant speed.

Front

How do you calculate speed from a Distance vs. Time Graph?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What does a steeper slope on a Distance vs. Time Graph indicate?

Back

The object is moving faster.

Front

What does a curved line on a Distance vs. Time Graph signify?

Back

The object is accelerating or decelerating.

Front

If an object travels 100 meters in 5 seconds, what is its speed?

Back

20 m/s.

Front

What is the formula to find distance when speed and time are known?

Back

Distance = Speed x Time.

Front

What does a downward slope on a Distance vs. Time Graph indicate?

Back

The object is returning to the starting position.

Front

If a runner rests for 5 seconds during a race, how does this appear on a Distance vs. Time Graph?

Back

It appears as a horizontal line segment.
