Front

What does the slope of a distance vs. time graph represent?

Back

The slope represents the speed of the object.

Front

What two measurements are necessary for calculating speed?

Back

Distance and time.

Front

What is the formula to calculate speed?

Back

v = d/t

Front

What does a flat line on a distance vs. time graph indicate?

Back

No motion.

Front

What does a steeper slope on a distance vs. time graph indicate?

Back

A higher speed.

Front

If an object is moving away from the starting position, what does the graph look like?

Back

The line slopes upwards.

Front

If an object is returning to the starting position, what does the graph look like?

Back

The line slopes downwards.

Front

What does a curved line on a distance vs. time graph indicate?

Back

The object is accelerating.

Front

How can you determine the speed of an object from a distance vs. time graph?

Back

By calculating the slope of the line.

Front

What happens to the speed of an object if the distance increases but the time remains constant?

Back

The speed increases.
