Time is always plotted on the X-axis (bottom of the graph). The further to the right on the axis, the longer the time from the start.

Distance is plotted on the Y-axis (side of the graph). The higher up the graph, the further from the start.

A steeper line indicates a larger distance moved in a given time. In other words, higher speed.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

30 sec • 5 pts

Speed-Time graphs look much like DistanceTime graphs. Be sure to read the labels!! Time is plotted on the X-axis. Speed or velocity is plotted on the Y-axis.

A straight horizontal line on a speed-time graph means that speed is constant. It is not changing over time. 

A straight line does not mean that the object is not moving!
