FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a velocity-time graph?

Back

A velocity-time graph is a graphical representation that shows how the velocity of an object changes over time.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

A horizontal line indicates that the object is moving at a constant velocity.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

A positive slope indicates that the object is accelerating (its velocity is increasing).

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

A negative slope indicates that the object is decelerating (its velocity is decreasing) or moving in the opposite direction.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does it mean if the velocity values are negative?

Back

Negative velocity means the object is moving in the opposite direction.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does it mean if an object is at rest on a velocity-time graph?

Back

An object at rest has a velocity of zero, represented by a horizontal line on the graph at the zero velocity mark.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

Acceleration can be determined by the slope of the line on the graph; a steeper slope indicates greater acceleration.
