.
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!
